Wellness Packages
For businesses, schools, hospitals, and organizations
We’ve all heard it - wellness programs increase productivity in the workplace. People feel more effective and less stressed at work with a regular mindfulness practice.
The University of Michigan Research Center determined that for every $1 spent on wellness in the workplace, an organization can expect a $3 return in savings or benefits. A regular yoga/movement practice can lower stress and feelings of anxiety or panic, increase productivity and creativity, boost morale, create a sense of camaraderie, and it may even lower the amount of sick days taken over time.
Also, the practice can be fun and invigorating, a perfect way to break up the work day.
At school, kids thrive with breaks to move their body and relax their mind. They perform better and bully less.
Individuals recovering from serious illness or navigating a life-altering diagnosis will benefit from simple tools that keep muscles moving and breath flowing as much as possible. This practice also makes space for acceptance and presence, and both are critical for establishing a new lived reality.
Classes are typically 60 minutes long and are either in-person or online via Zoom or Youtube. If in-person, it’s ideal to have a private space with enough room for people to spread out a bit. It’s not always possible, so don’t worry! We’ll make do with what we have.
Movement, breathwork, and meditative practices are always beginner-friendly and considered “all-levels.” If your organization wants something specific, just let me know. We can do restorative work, we can be active and build strength, we can focus solely on meditation - it’s your oyster, or whatever they say.
Both one-time rates and package deals are available. Typically wellness programs do better as a series than as a stand-alone event.
Single session rate, either in-person or online: $125
6-8 session rate, either in-person or online: $100
10-12 session rate, either in-person or online: $90
*Prices will be adjusted for distance traveled (if out of town), session length, number of attendees, and frequency of sessions
*Online options include livestream via Zoom, or pre-recorded via Youtube
