Ottawa Shakti Yoga

Shakti Yoga taught by Kim Gibson

I am currently on maternity leave and will return to teaching this summer for outdoor yoga. Stay tuned for dates and times of outdoor evening classes in Lakeview Terrace taking place this July/August.

Personal Yoga: Personal yoga sessions allow the student to practice with the full attention of a Yoga Alliance certified yoga instructor. Personal yoga sessions are a great way to further your practice, to make sure you are practicing correctly and to give your at-home practice a bit of a boost. Unlike a large class, your instructor will be able to cater to your specific needs and plan a class according to what you would like to achieve, taking in mind any physical limitations, etc.
Corporate Yoga: Integrating yoga into the workplace is a fairly new concept that has become extremely popular as the benefits are endless, for both the employer and employee. Most workplaces have safety hazards, repetitive motion injuries, stressed out employees, and an atmosphere that requires optimum morale. Every possible life skill can be gained from the steady practice of yoga.
	In an office setting, yoga techniques can be introduced to gently stretch tendons, muscles, and soft tissue as well as breathing techniques to reduce stress. Stressed out employees will benefit from the many different aspects of yoga. The fact is that stress will cost a company a fortune in health insurance premiums and potential claims. Think of the sick time, lack of production, poor morale, potential office turmoil, and workers' compensation claims! Yoga classes in the workplace create an atmosphere of optimum morale and harmony.
There are so many benefits to be gained by introducing yoga into the corporate sector that management is "crazy" not to offer it. Imagine your company with happy, healthy, and appreciative employees. Yoga could be your answer.
