About the programme
Each session includes strengthening, mobility, and relaxation exercises — with and without small equipment.
Participants do not need to change clothes or leave their workplace; our trainers come directly to your office.
Every office team can book one appointment per week and determine the location themselves.
You can book up to three PausenExpress sessions per year, each lasting 10 weeks.
Please note
If your group has more than 10 participants, please set up an additional group to ensure enough space for everyone.
Always include your room number in the registration form to help our coordinators and trainers allocate the correct location.
Practical tips
Sessions can take place in almost any office room, as long as there is sufficient space (approx. two arm lengths per person).
Desks and chairs may remain in the room; our trainers adapt exercises to the available space.
