In today’s professional world, employees are experiencing burn out more than ever before. We are globally interconnected, multitasking and distracted by social media saturation and so much more. Many employees suffer from aches stemming from bad postural habits as well as risk chronic injuries and stress overload from not being able to calm the mind.
English Yoga Berlin has created a customized business package to help employers and employees address these issues in a dynamically proactive way.
This package includes:
-
HATHA YOGA CLASSES (2)
Two specialized one hour long Hatha Yoga classes will be provided for your employees at your location. These classes will teach workplace specific postures including gentle stretches that can be used during the day to relieve muscular contractions, increase oxygen intake and improve with the loss of stamina that typically occurs as the day goes by.
-
GROUNDING TECHNIQUES AND MINDFULNESS CLASS (1)
This one hour class teaches simple grounding techniques to counteract the multitasking nature of today’s modern work life. Employees can use these techniques anytime they are feeling overwhelmed, scattered and anxious. The techniques are discreet, take only a few minutes and have an immediate effect on grounding.
-
PERSONALIZED ERGONOMIC CONSULTATION (Individual)
A 15-20 minute ergonomic consultation in which an employee and their habits are evaluated individually. Each employee will then be consulted on how to change their specific posture, as well as small changes to the office infrastructure to support the new postural habits. For instance: the relationship between the height of the computer, chair, floor versus the postural habits of this specific person.
PRICES:
- Two yoga and one mindfulness class (up to 20 participants): 350 Euro
- Ergonomic consultation 25 Euro per employee (a consultation varies between 15 -20 minutes)
EQUIPMENT AND LOCATION
The Hatha yoga and mindfulness classes can take place in your office conference room, or at your next professional conference in hotel space or other location. The English Yoga Berlin studio can also be rented out specifically for your needs.
Up to 20 mats will be provided at your location.
The ergonomic consultations take place at the employees work space so that adjustments to the specific space can be made.

She deepened her knowledge by studying Yoga Anatomy with Leslie Kaminoff. Additionally, she trained with David Moore and attended his “Injury-free yoga” workshops, integrating the Alexander Technique into yoga poses. This comprehensive training enriched her expertise in both fields.

Pinelopi’s ergonomic consultations integrate anatomy, Alexander Technique, and yoga’s mind-body understanding. Her holistic approach optimizes well-being in the workplace through comprehensive guidance.
She has completed training in ‘Understanding Trauma for Safer Spaces’ with Legacy Motion and ‘Somatic Embodiment and Regulation Strategies’ with Linda Thai. Her meditation philosophy is deeply inspired by Tara Brach, particularly the RAIN meditation.
