Getting Back 2 Better with Sensata Technologies & Yoga Fundamentals Online

I was delighted to help bring wellness at work to the end of 2021 for the team at Sensata Technologies, with a 6 week Yoga Fundamentals Online Programme as part of their ‘Back 2 Better’ initiative.

While the recommendation to work from home was still in place, they wanted to offer an online yoga class to encourage staff to get active.

Our Yoga Fundamentals 6 week online progressive programme is inspired by our award winning BroFlo, our Vinyasa styled YogaFlo, and our chilllllled out Yin Yoga, and designed for those keen to increase their flexibility and mobility, feel more energised, improve their mental health, feel less stressed, get more sleep, and feel AWESOME!

It aims to:

  • Promote a chance to set up for, or decompress from, a busy, desk based working environment.

  • Promote a sense of community amongst attendees

  • Increase attendees postural awareness, improving their overall comfort

  • Build resistance to physical and mental fatigue

  • Highlight the importance of movement during their working day to improve their productivity through better work rest balance.

Sessions were facilitated on Zoom, with the session recordings available within 24 hours to those who had missed a session, or wanted to repeat in their own time.

I loved working with this team, and thrilled with some awesome feedback below.

Gary ran a 6-week online course for our organisation. He was able to provide a great proposal for the course for us to take to management and has all the infrastructure for invoicing and payment. He is well setup for managing participant registration, Zoom calls and hosting the recorded sessions. The yoga sessions were great, a good balance of being accessible and challenging.

Gary managed to demonstrate and explain everything well even though the sessions were online, his experience and enthusiasm were very clear. Would highly recommend Fitness Belfast for personal or corporate courses.
