Once my friend Sami got her yoga license we started discussing the idea of having yoga at MyEdu in the evenings. Corporate yoga is a growing phenom so we worked through the details on our own and based the general timeline and pricing after some of the programs Sami had been introduced to. I knew that we had quite a few yogis in the office, as well as a number of newbies so it was a no brainer to bring her in.
We've just started our 2nd session and it's going well! Our first session had 8 regulars and we're recruiting for others to try it out this time around. There is a huge area in the center of the office that serves as our studio...and it works out perfectly because once it's dark the windows serve as mirrors!
Sami was trained by Breath & Body Yoga here in Austin (see my earlier post for website) and is leading us through power vinyasa classes. She's a great teacher and helps us explore the different aspects of yoga while putting work behind us...even though we're still in the office :) She is especially good at working with all levels of practice - doing a thorough job of explaining the mechanics and proper form of each position. Over the course of our first 6-week session she definitely increased the difficulty-level as everyone got stronger and more familiar with yoga. I'm doing my current trial period at BBY so I'll cover Sami and her classes in more depth after I experience her in the studio!
Our pricing was:
6 weeks for $60
5 weeks for $55 (in case you need to miss one)
Drop-in for $14
It's a great deal and so convenient! I know that a lot of people find it easier to simply stay here then have to commute to a studio; we can even go back to work after if necessary! Definitely reach out to Sami if you think this is something your company would like sami@samilea.com.
