Breathe In, Breathe Out

'Asana is that perfect moment when the body is utterly still, effortless; sensation and breathing suspend themselves so that time comes to a halt.

Then: happiness in a moment of infinity.'

Patanjali, Yoga Sutras II, 47

McCormick keeps on practicing

McCormick, spice factoryThank you to McCormick’s students. Since October 5th, we’ve been practicing every Monday night in their Allspice room. Brainstorming room in the day, Yoga room at night: what a good use of space.

Tonight we had a short chat about Yoga. We sat up after relaxation, I explained how I started and why I began teaching after twelve years of casual practice.

Some people come after work and others go back to work just after the class for their night shift.
I think more companies should offer a space to their employees to practice Yoga . The teacher gets a set group of determined students every week. Where each student saves time and money thanks to an on-site and affordable class.

Corporate Yoga

Businessman Lying Down
For most people Yoga is simply a means of maintaining health and well-being in an increasingly stressful society.
Asanas (postures) remove the physical discomfort accumulated during a day at the office sitting in a chair (or in a car!), or hunched over a desk.
Relaxation techniques help maximise the effectiveness of ever-diminishing time off. In an age of mobile phones, beepers and twenty-four hour shopping, yogic practices make great personal and even business sense.

On October 5th I started a new course at the McCormick spice factory, Haddenham.

A dozen staff decided to give it a go once a week for four weeks. Hopefully they’ll like it and will join for another few weeks.

The class takes place in one of the company’s meeting rooms. I bring a few spare mats, blankets and straps. Some people bring their own and I run the hour practice.

It’s been organised to allow people to join a class just after work and for a very reasonnable fee.

For corporate sessions, I need a minimum of 8 participants.
