How to Build a Yoga Class Around a Peak Pose
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Yoga Insider, I'm walking you through some of the most common questions I hear regarding sequencing yoga classes around a peak pose. In today's conversation, I'll address:
- What a peak pose actually is.
- How to choose the right peak pose for your audience.
- How to identify the key actions & component parts of your peak pose.
- How to layer complexity gradually into your sequence.
- What to do when teaching your peak pose doesn't go as planned.
Peak pose sequencing is simply one method out of many that can help you teach with more clarity and intention. It gives your students a clear direction, and has the potential to be a really powerful educational tool when it’s used thoughtfully. If you’ve been curious about trying it in your own classes, I hope this episode gives you a beginner framework to start experimenting with it and adapting it to your own teaching style and the needs of your students.
