Focus:
Asana is an energetic practice, not just a physical one — it works on the body, the nervous system, and the mind. Depending on which asanas are taught and how they’re sequenced, students can feel very different immediately after class — and different again over months and years of practice. There is a difference between a class that flows and a class that has been genuinely thought through. This module teaches the second kind.
Over two weekends, you will build a foundation in the five Vayus — Prana, Apana, Udana, Vyana, Samana — and the energetic qualities of core posture categories: forward folds, backbends, twists, and more. You will study Vinyasa Krama, the principle of intelligent progression, and learn to design sequences for a student’s level of experience as well as for specific purposes.
From there, you will study the principles that give a sequence coherence — how to build toward a peak, how to develop a theme that runs through every moment of a class, and how to design progressive programming across multiple sessions so students genuinely develop over time. A significant portion of the module is dedicated to workshop and retreat design: the architecture of a multi-hour or multi-day experience, how to pace it, how to build content that serves the container. You will also explore how sequencing needs to adapt for different populations and contexts — beginners, mixed levels, and specific groups.
By the end of this module you will:
Understand the five Vayus and the energetic qualities of core posture categories, and use this to inform sequencing decisions
Apply Vinyasa Krama (intelligent progression) to design sequences for different levels of experience and specific purposes
Build classes with clear purpose, progression, and arc using established sequencing principles
Develop themes that run coherently through an entire class or series
Design multi-session programmes that create measurable development for students - Plan the structure and content of workshops and retreat schedules with confidence
