A Deskercize Class

Introduction
Sitting at a desk for long periods of time can lead to muscle imbalances and decreased physical activity, which can have negative impacts on overall health. However, it is still possible to incorporate movement and exercise into the workday with Deskercise.
Deskercize classes are designed to help employees stay active and reduce stress while working at their desks. With our experienced instructors, your employees will be equipped with stretches, movements, and exercises that can be performed throughout the day whilst working at their desks.
