Conference, Retreat & Event Sessions

Gentle Yoga & Mindful Self-Care for Attendees

Give your attendees a chance to pause, breathe, and recharge.

I’m Rebecca Whitrow, founder of You 1st Yoga. I facilitate gentle yoga, mindfulness, and self-care sessions that help conference, retreat & event participants release tension, refocus their energy, and return to sessions feeling calm and engaged.

These experiences are especially valuable for professionals who care for others — including healthcare workers, educators, social workers, leaders, and caregivers.

Sessions are accessible, beginner-friendly, and easily integrated into conference schedules.

Why Include Wellness at Your Event

Conferences and retreats can be mentally and physically demanding. Offering wellness sessions helps attendees:

✔ Release tension and reduce stress
✔ Renew energy and improve focus
✔ Stay present and engaged throughout the event
✔ Learn simple tools they can use long after the conference ends
✔ Feel cared for and supported during the event

Even a short session can create a meaningful reset for participants.
