Emotional Fitness For Individuals, Teams & Workplaces

The missing human piece in leadership, well-being, and change.

Emotions shape how we lead, live and relate.

They influence our decisions, relationships, and how we show up — at home, at work, and in the world.

But most of us were never taught how to work with emotions — to understand, regulate, and use them as a force for growth.

That’s what emotional fitness is. Not control. Not suppression. But the skills, awareness, and tools to navigate life with clarity, courage, and care.

At 5th Place, we make this practical.

Our classes, talks, and workshops support individuals and teams to build resilience, communicate more openly, lead with presence, and find steadiness in the face of challenge.

This is emotional wellbeing that’s felt — and lived.

Whether you're a leader, team member, or someone who simply wants to feel more like yourself, we offer ways in.

Support You Can Start With Today

If you’re looking for a way in — something grounded, accessible, and ready when you are — these sessions offer just that. Designed for individuals, they give you tools to feel more in control of your emotions, develop emotional awareness, and build confidence in everyday life.

Emotional Fitness Class for Anxiety

Anxiety is one of the most common emotions we struggle with today. Some anxiety is natural—it helps us respond to challenges—but when it becomes overwhelming, it can:


❌ Disrupt sleep, focus, and daily functioning
❌ Create tension in the body and mind
❌ Make it hard to feel present and at ease

This class offers a gentle, mindful, and body-based way to release anxiety using Shape of Emotion.

The challenge of workplace stress

In today’s fast-paced corporate world, stress is an ever-present challenge impacting employee well-being and productivity.

Awareness gap: The underestimated impact of stress

A significant issue in many organisations is the underestimation or lack of awareness of stress's true impact. This gap often leads to diminished employee morale, increased absenteeism, and reduced productivity. By not acknowledging the full extent of stress and taking action against it, businesses risk overlooking a critical barrier to their team's success and well-being.

5th Place's solution: Emotional Fitness Workshops

5th Place addresses this challenge head-on with Emotional Fitness Workshops. These sessions are specifically designed for the corporate environment, offering practical and engaging strategies to manage workplace stress.
