Yoga can be adapted to suit any level of fitness or mobility, making it accessible to all employees. It can be incorporated into a corporate wellness program in a variety of ways, such as offering on-site yoga classes, providing employees with access to online yoga classes, or offering yoga retreats as part of employee benefits.
