The Worksite Wellness Series begins with the basic workshop. The second part can be presented separately or in tandem with the basic workshop. The Second Series is designed to build and expand on the First workshop. By providing more partner participation and exercises using a Styrofoam therapy roll and tubing individuals learn a new way to stretch and strengthen their bodies. Productive Postures is a very flexible workshop. Sessions typically range from one to up to two hours but can be shortened based on your industry and employee needs.
