With long working hours, unsystematic eating habits and slouching on a chair the entire day, the emotional and mental well-being of a professional takes a back seat somewhere. To reduce the toll and establish an energetic work-place environment, companies have come up with creative ideas to indulge their employees in physical activity on their premises and in such a scenario, what could be better than a dance?
Dance is known to serve dual benefits. Firstly, it uplifts the mood and secondly, it is the finest source of physical activity to remain fit. Exemplifying the same, a video showing a trainer prepping employees for Bhangra, Punjab’s traditional folk dance, has inspired many to step up and dance to the beats.
The clip was shared on Instagram by Faridabad-based Hype The Gym, a gym and physical fitness center featuring Sahil Sharma, a partner with the centre. Based on the post, the occasion appeared to be a corporate event. The user captioned the post, ‘Bas aisa office mil jaaye.’
The gym is said to be North India’s Fastest & Youngest Growing Gym Chain with 60+ chains in India.
The clip shows people standing next to each other in a well-carpeted area. The video captures them imitating the steps while grooving to Label Black, a hit Punjabi song by Gupz Sehra as they are being taught by a dance trainer. The fun-filled session shows employees having a gala time at their office, entirely different from otherwise usual working days.
