Desk Reset: A Guided Stretching Session (Online)

Monday, October 20, 2025 11:00to11:30

Offered by the Health and Wellness Program as part of the 15th Annual Health and Wellness Fair

In our modern lives, we spend a significant amount of time sitting, typing, and focusing on tasks that limit our body's natural movement; over time, this may lead to musculoskeletal imbalances. A consistent stretching and mobility routine is a vital practice for prevention of injury and for maintaining functional independence for life.

Movement is medicine. Is your body feeling stiff after long hours at your desk? Reclaim your movement! Join us for a practical and inclusive Desk Reset designed for all fitness levels.

In this session, you will:

Practice simple stretches to counteract the effects of prolonged sitting 💪
Learn an easy sequence you can incorporate after a workout or a warm-up 🧘🏽‍♀️
Explore strategies to move with freedom by integrating flexibility, strength, and stability💡

We look forward to stretching with you!
