What Are University Wellbeing Programs?

University wellbeing programs are facilitated sessions run on campus or online by outside instructors. They give students and staff a practical break from study and work, with options from yoga and pilates to mindfulness, dance, self-defence, strength and fitness, and seated movement and stretching.

Sessions can be one-off experiences or ongoing programs through the academic year. Every session is adapted for different abilities, fitness levels and experience, so nobody needs to have done it before.

Yoga: Accessible classes that help students and staff slow down, stretch and reset. Suitable for all abilities, no experience needed.
Pilates: Mat-based core strength and posture sessions that suit long study and desk hours.
Mindfulness: Breathwork, meditation and guided relaxation to help students and staff manage busy and stressful periods.
Dance: High-energy, inclusive sessions in styles including hip hop, jazz, contemporary and K-Pop.
Self-Defence: Practical, confidence-building sessions that suit student groups and student safety events.
Strength & Fitness: Interactive, game-style movement that gets groups active, whatever their fitness level.
