'TO PLACE'
A day long immersion into sequencing/theming for vinyasa yoga-asana teachers
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7
9am-4pm
The Collective Studio - Baltimore, MD
Interested in understanding the elements of curating an intentional yoga sequence? Join Dani Reidy for a day long immersion to explore how a yoga asana class is informed by the ever changing aspects of our inner and outer environment. Learn to build sequences that are rooted in a "why" and understand the subtle tone of the asanas (poses) to be able to generate an intended energetic outcome for your students.
Our day immersion will explore the fundamentals of designing a yoga sequence which will inherently cover how to theme your yoga classes. Dani will provide blue-prints to outline your classes, while giving you creative freedom to explore how to integrate this information authentically.

Building a class is so much more than creating something that looks or even just feels good but is truly an art & science. How we place the body informs where we place the mind and heart.
