Yoga teachers have different options for where they can provide yoga services and teaching corporate yoga is a great way to provide an employee wellness benefit.

Lynn shares her story here and you’ll learn about how she started her business, what it’s like to partner with her and what benefits you’ll gain through the partnership. I wanted Lynn to share her story and what her company offers because it might just be an opportunity one of you want to investigate further.
