Sequencing for Embodied Yoga
A 30-hour, three-day immersion in the art of sequencing with Melanie Cooper, where creativity meets intelligence and fun.
Empower your teaching, empower your students
Discover the magic of sequencing: a blend of creativity, intellect and pure joy. With Melanie’s guidance, you’ll explore ideas that bring richness and engagement to every sequence, while staying true to you.
This three-day immersion is both theoretical and creative. You’ll leave with the tools and inspiration to craft sequences confidently.
What you’ll learn
- Seamless sequencing. Build options and modifications naturally into your sequences.
- Multi-level classes. Move smoothly between alignment-based postures and dynamic flow.
- Your voice. Find your own voice as a teacher, with compassion and inclusivity.
- Peak pose progression. Build towards a peak pose, then guide students gently back to rest.
- Theme sequencing. Weave a theme or narrative through your classes.
- Music. Use curated playlists to support and enhance your classes.
What you’ll gain
- A creative framework. Intelligent sequences that work energetically and anatomically, not cookie-cutter ones.
- Adaptability. Evolve your sequences week to week with your students’ needs.
- Movement. Explore mobility, stability, embodied movement and somatic inspiration.
- Individual feedback. Personal guidance on the sequences you create.
- Community. An online group for peer support and extra resources.
