Yoga teachers carry a significant responsibility as they walk into the studio to teach a class. The expectations are high as they conduct the symphony of the breath, cue anatomical alignment, urge proper engagement, and teach the wisdom practices of this ancient science. All of this is layered gracefully over the architecture of the sequence. Just like any other structure, if the foundation isn't stable and secure, the building will quickly start to show its cracks.
Sequencing is the stable base that must be built to bear the weight of all the other elements that will be laid upon it. Alongside that, there is an undeniable urge to make the structure beautiful and ornate. The choreography of the body has the potential to pull our students out of their minds and allow them to float in the freedom of uninhibited movement. However, the movement must be intelligent, coherent, directed, and delivered in a concise way.
