About this session
Night-shift movement does not look like a daytime fitness class.
Overnight work may mean sitting at a security or control desk, standing on a line, walking hospital corridors or switching between quiet stretches and sudden activity. As the night goes on, people often feel stiff, sluggish or tired.
This instructor-led session gives night teams short, low-impact routines for the start of a shift, breaks and the later hours. Seated, standing and lower-intensity options are offered throughout. It is movement practice, not treatment.
What your people take away
- A start-of-shift movement routine
