Sequencing

After being sick for a couple weeks, I recovered and had such a great weekend. Yoga teacher training class on Saturday was AWESOME. I learned a lot and gained a lot of confidence in one 3 hour workshop. I taught a group of 20 classmates and I did well. I feel like I'm finally gaining an understanding of how to sequence a yoga class.

Yesterday (Monday) I spent 3 hours creating a class sequence for a group of friends that I plan to teach on Saturday. I looked over all my notes on sequencing, looked up descriptions of a lot of poses, made a list of poses I'd like to teach, and then put the list in an order that made sense. Then I practiced the sequence and made a couple adjustments to the sequence. I'm so relieved to have the sequence fully written out, because I'd been thinking about writing it for weeks and was starting to procrastinate. I'm really starting to have a solid basic knowledge of how to teach yoga and structure classes. It is exciting.
