Christine: The art of sequencing

No matter how many yoga classes I’ve attended in the past 10+ years, I never knew the intricacies in creating a sequence!

Learning in YTT the order of a sequence and the types of poses for each has been eye opening. The order of a sequence is usually as follows:

Warm Up / Breathing / Sun Salutations

Standing

Seated

Prone

Supine

Invert

Learning this in YTT then reflecting back on all the classes I’ve been to, and then taking classes moving forward made me realise how much goes into creating a sequence for one class. It definitely gives me much more respect to all the yoga instructors who have guided me through my practice, and their different styles of teaching.

I hope one day that sequencing just becomes second nature to me and that I will be able to guide my students through their yoga journey regularly.
