Yoga on the Capitol Complex

Yoga for the Office is available for state employees at the Capitol Complex who need stress-relieving and energy-renewing techniques.

The modern day workplace can be particularly adept at throwing our life off balance so why not use an ancient, time-honored system to re-balance ourselves - Yoga. The poses for Yoga for the Office can help you tune up your mind, body, and spirit. Yoga helps you stay centered and, when you stray from that place, to return to it more quickly. A regular practice of Yoga can help lower your heart rate and blood pressure, increase flexibility, improve balance, and develop stamina and endurance.

 

  • Every Wednesday and Thursday - see schedule below
  • No change of clothes, No mat, No sweat!
  • Yoga for the office, in the office.
  • Learn Yoga poses, breathing and relaxation that you can do any time, any day, at your desk.
  • Free!

Yoga for the Office workout is:

  • Immediate - whenever you feel like it - no gym or club, no special props, no shower afterward
  • Accessible - do-able by any healthy individual - let your body be your guide. Do not force it.
  • Realistic - minimal of fuss, only a few minutes; anyone can take time to do a handful of stretches and relaxing breathing.
  • Effective - In a short period of time, Yoga can free up tight hamstrings, hunched over shoulders, cranky necks, and stressed out brains.
