Smooth Flowing Yoga Sequence: A Simple Formula For Yoga Teachers
There is only one golden rule when it comes to building a yoga sequence.
It is…
Flow
Your job as a yoga teacher is make sure each and every pose flows gracefully into the next.
Disruptive Flowing Yoga Sequence Example
Going from standing to sitting to standing is chaotic and a waste of energy. The transition from one pose to the next should be done with the absolute minimal amount of effort.
Graceful Flowing Yoga Sequence Example
Going from standing backbend to standing forward bend to downward facing dog is harmonious. When creating your yoga lesson plans think harmony.
Think flow.
Think gracefulness.
It’s time for my conclusion, and why I love using yoga card decks as teaching aids in my classes.
