Peak Pose Sequencing for Vinyasa Classes
About Course
“If you go step by step, there will be no problems. Enjoy each step. Trying to leap many steps at once can be a problem.”
~T.K.V. Desikachar, quoting his father Krishnamacharya
PEAK POSE SEQUENCING
&
THE SIMPLE TO COMPLEX TEACHING METHOD
“If you have it in your practice…”
How often have you been in a class where a teacher uses this phrase to offer up a more complex pose? Or, have you said it yourself while teaching a class?
How does this phrase help new students to learn a new pose or variation?
How does this help your students grow their practice?
We are ‘teachers’, so let’s actually teach!
In this continuing education course you will explore how to create a yoga class sequence designed around a ‘peak’ pose.
And more importantly, you will learn how to actually ‘teach’ the pose so that all students, no matter their level of experience, feel included and are given options. This small but important detail is often missing from an all levels class.
There are two main objectives in this course:
1. How to integrate the more complicated poses directly into a power vinyasa arc sequence style class – without breaking the flow of the class.
2. How to actually teach more complex poses using the ‘simple to complex’ cueing method.
This course goes beyond learning how to design a single class around peak pose – it gives you the tools to develop class plans that build on each other to support overall growth and development for all of your students.
You will learn the steps to breaking down the anatomical actions of a pose and gain the ability to determine poses with similar patterns that will help prepare the body for more complex poses.
Intelligent sequencing, clear step-by-step instructions with alternatives, combined basic foundation building can help prep your student’s bodies and give them the tools to grow their practice.
