Yoga Sequencing Secrets: Guiding Principles and Tools for Yoga Teachers

Yoga Sequencing Secrets outlines essential and versatile principles for creating safe, effective yoga practices. Drawing on her extensive experience as a yoga instructor, personal trainer, and professional dancer, Flissy Saucier has created this book to address a wide range of subjects relating to sequencing including general fitness principles, understanding students' needs, and common mistakes teachers make when planning classes. This book guides the practitioner through a step-by-step approach to create a practice out of a general idea, transforming that idea into a structured and meaningful class for students. Yoga instructors will find the tools in Yoga Sequencing Secrets useful for curriculum and class planning, particularly those who struggle to keep up with the demands of preparing multiple classes in a wide range of contexts. Unique to this book are three worksheets designed to identify core postures, encourage thoughtful planning, and evaluate sequences with an objective eye. Also included are over a dozen sample sequences that instructors can use as they are or adapt to their own style of yoga.
