Despite growing awareness around workplace wellness, many companies still hesitate to introduce yoga sessions. Why? Because of a bunch of outdated myths. Let’s set the record straight.
Myth 1: A Dedicated Space is Required
Fact: Not true at all. Corporate yoga is flexible by design. Sessions can be held in breakout zones, conference rooms, auditoriums – or even right at your desk, seated or standing. No mats, no excuses.
Myth 2: Yoga Sessions Are Very Long
Fact: You don’t need an hour to feel better. Even 5–10 minute desk sessions can improve posture, reduce fatigue, and re-energize your mind.
Myth 3: The Biggest Challenge is Participation
Fact: That’s where we shine. We use health quizzes, humor, fun challenges, and interactive tools to bring teams in. Attendance isn’t a problem when people are smiling and moving.
Myth 4: Corporate Yoga is Boring
Fact: Ever tried Laughter Yoga? It’s playful, vocal, energizing, and a fantastic team icebreaker. When done right, yoga becomes an experience, not an obligation.
Myth 5: The Gym is Better – Yoga Has No Cardio
Fact: You don’t need a treadmill to get your heart pumping. Simple techniques like Engine Daud (jogging at your desk) or dynamic chair-based sequences build stamina and energize your day.
Myth 6: Yoga Isn’t Energetic Enough for Young Teams
Fact: Try Simha Asana (Lion Pose) – it’s fiery, loud, and instantly lifts the room’s energy. Young professionals love bold wellness!
Myth 7: Zumba is more fun than Yoga
Fact: Our Bollywood Dance Yoga and Laughter Yoga sessions combine rhythm, breath, and movement into a celebration. Yoga can be just as joyful and dynamic.
Myth 8: Yoga Isn’t Suitable for Everyone
Fact: We offer gentle, therapeutic, and seated variations — perfect for employees with mobility challenges, injuries, or chronic health conditions.
Myth 9: Yoga Doesn’t Build Team Spirit
Fact: Yoga can be a powerful team bonding tool. Think group laughter, partner stretches, and wellness games designed for participation and connection.
More than Exercise – It’s a Lifestyle shift
Corporate yoga isn’t just a list of poses. It’s about integrating health into your day with subtle, smart movements:
- Raise your heels while waiting for the lift
- Massage your arms while stuck in traffic
- Walk like a child to the washroom
- Cross your arms behind your back and stretch mid-day
Stop planning for an hour – do whatever, wherever, whenever. Motion is lotion.
This is what we teach in our sessions – not just yoga, but how to feel good through movement, anywhere.
