sequencing + modifications

SEQUENCING + MODIFICATIONS

One way to create your own voice as a teacher is through sequencing. Most traditional styles of yoga have specific sequences that you may already be familiar with.  In this training we will dive deep into the creative art of sequencing by pulling from what has worked for generations and making it our own. By exploring new sequences as teachers we will find fresh ideas from various traditions and from the collective within our group.

Since we all come to the practice with a different physical history every body is unique. While sharing our creations we will also take time to step back and look at what words and postures we can use to make the practice accessible to students with injuries or limitations.
