A small group of people could learn about and learn how to do the Jiggy break in a short, enjoyable 90 minute workshop.
A short introduction to the Jiggy break, giving your employees an experience of the simple exercises (to assess if they would like to participate in the ‘Jiggy break project’ and have the ’Jiggy break culture’ installed) can be done in as little as 20 minutes—ideal to include in team meetings.
Larger projects and special needs assessments/design will obviously take longer.
The routine is made up of exercises from a variety of sources and health enhancing practices. These include Tai Chi, Qigong, Shiatsu meridian stretches and Kinesiology.
No, the routine is done slowly and gently so it’s not intended to cause the body to heat up unduly like fitness or cardiovascular exercises do.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, we can come along and install the Jiggy break in offices of any size. When you work alone it’s extremely important that you learn the habit of regular movement as there are often few other reason to leave your work station.
I work alone in my office, would you teach me the Jiggy break?
Do you get sweaty from doing this? - I don’t like the sound of sharing the office with a load of sweaty bodies!
If these aren’t fitness exercises, what kind are they and where do they come from?
How long does it take to learn?
That depends on your needs. If you call and ask to speak to Joy Taylor she will find out what you are looking for and give you an idea of costs.

“My mission is for it to be as normal at work for people to stand up and take a healthy 2-minute ‘Jiggy’ break’, as it was for people to leave the office for a 10-minute ‘ciggy’ break.” Joy Taylor — Rude Health Rocks
If our standard ‘Jiggy break’ doesn’t suit your workplace or department, we can design something that does, taking in to consideration your unique circumstances and the physical challenges encountered in your line of work.
The routine can be adapted to suit people with disabilities.
What if we have special needs in our place of work?
Joy Taylor, the designer will come out and teach the routine herself to ensure it is taught properly and safely and that any problems you may encounter are solved appropriately. Joy is an experienced holistic health care practitioner, body work and tai chi/qigong teacher and certified health coach. She is also a member of the Institute of Leadership and Management. She uses these skills in her work as a personal stress management consultant for Rude Health Rocks Ltd

“Most people don’t do daily exercises because they don’t think they have the time or they don’t think they’ll be able to do it well.
The Jiggy break shifts those blocks and gives everyone the satisfaction of completing an exercise routine in just 2 minutes – without breaking into a sweat.”
Bad sitting posture and chronic tension stops us from being able to breathe easily and fully, resulting in our body’s major organs not being able to function properly. This can cause poor concentration, fatigue and chronic stress. By moving and releasing your body, it encourages us to breathe more fully and helps us let go of tension that we are holding on to.
Getting a regular ‘Jiggy break’ habit can help prevent back problems; stiff or frozen joints: digestive problems; repetitive strain injury; muscular problems; poor posture; poor circulation; poor concentration; chronic fatigue; depression; sleep problems; vision problems; headaches; occupational stress — and many more preventable disorders.
How can this improve or protect my health?
