Move. Eat. Connect.: When HR Networking Starts on the Yoga Mat

We traded our laptops for yoga mats.

Together with Circle of Life, we hosted Move. Eat. Connect., an after-work networking evening with a twist. HR, People & Culture professionals and office managers came together at SANA Studio in Berlin for an evening that started with a yoga session and ended with a Bella&Bona catering tasting.

Instead of name tags and small talk, the evening began with a yoga session. Guests rolled out their mats, stretched together and arrived in the room, in every sense.

Every spot came with a mat, two yoga blocks and a tote bag saying “Mentally I’m at lunch”.

After the session, the room changed from studio to table. Our team set up a catering tasting with fresh salads, warm dishes and desserts, with clear labels for vegan and vegetarian options.

Guests served themselves, filled their plates and tried a bit of everything.

Dessert came in glasses: a raspberry chia pudding with berries, mint and coconut.

Food does what a name tag cannot: it gives people a reason to talk. With a plate in hand, guests moved easily from one conversation to the next.

HR and office teams think about wellbeing and food together: how people feel at work, and how they eat. An evening that combines both is a simple way to show what that looks like in practice. It also lets people try our food before they plan their own event.

Whether it is a team event, a networking evening or a launch, we cater it. Take a look at our Catering, try the exclusive Pop-up Restaurant, or ask about Office Lunch for your daily lunch.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to Circle of Life for hosting this evening together.
