Very few are taught how to design a sequence that actually meets the needs of the people in front of them. \n\n This course is a deep dive into the art and science of therapeutic sequencing\, giving you the skills to move beyond generic class planning and into intentional\, adaptive\, and results-oriented teaching. \n\n Rooted in the teachings of the Yoga Sutras and the lineage of T. Krishnamacharya\, you will learn foundational yoga therapy assessment models and how to apply them to both group classes and individual clients. Through the lens of the Pancha Maya model\, you will begin to recognize patterns of imbalance\, identify contraindications\, and select appropriate tools to support safe and effective practice. \n\n You will explore broad therapeutic applications for conditions such as low back pain\, cardiovascular concerns\, respiratory and energetic imbalances\, addiction\, digestive issues\, and relational stress\, while learning how to adapt practices to meet students where they are. \n\n \n\n This Course Emphasizes \n\n \n →\n Intelligent\, adaptable sequencing using vinyasa krama \n \n\n \n →\n Goal-oriented practice design based on real-time assessment \n \n\n \n →\n Skillful application of asana\, pranayama\, and meditation \n \n\n \n →\n Understanding the "why" behind every sequence you teach \n \n\n \n Practice + Feedback \n What makes this course truly transformative is the hands-on practice and feedback. You will actively design and teach sequences in a supportive environment\, receiving direct guidance to refine your ability to create safe\, effective\, and personalized experiences for your students. \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n How we teach sequencing A yoga class is a story.Here's how we teach you to tell one.Allison Prince MS\, C-IAYT\, E-RYT 500\, of Be The Change Yoga builds a full class toward a peak pose — dancer — and narrates every decision as she goes. Why this shape and not that one. Where the hip flexors get opened. When to hold and when to keep moving. What to do when the room in front of you isn't the room you planned for. A genuine sample of how we teach sequencing inside the 300hr Advanced Yoga Teacher Training — the AlcheMē Yoga Therapy approach\, where creative flow meets therapeutic adaptation. Allison Prince MS\, C-IAYT\, E-RYT 500 Sequencing toward dancer pose — a teaching sample from the 300hr Advanced Yoga Teacher Training at Be The Change Yoga\, Old Town Irvine. What you'll learn to do Start with intention\, then choose the peakEnergizing\, calming\, or balancing — the intention comes first\, and the peak pose follows from it. Then you ask what physically has to be prepared to get there.Move base pose to base poseSeated\, to tabletop\, to standing. You don't drop to the floor only to pop back up — that's what makes a class feel choppy.Build a ladder flowEach round adds a rung. The same shape\, explored a little deeper\, until the peak arrives.Offer three or four options in every shapeYou are always teaching multiple levels at once — because you always have multiple levels in the room.Adapt to the room you actually haveYou'll have a plan. Then there's the reality in front of you. Learning to switch gears is the skill.Opening~5 min check-inWarm-up15–20 minFlow~15 minPeak~5 minCool downLonger holdsŚavāsana5 min minimumBy the time you arrive at the peak\, it shouldn't surprise anyone. The body should think: of course — I've been preparing for this the whole time. That's what good sequencing feels like from the inside\, and it's what your students are responding to when they tell you they've never gotten into that pose before. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n Advanced Studies \n\n The Sequencing Series.\n\n Five weekend intensives plus the Chakras course\, taught across eight months.

Yoga therapists are the health promotion specialists of the 21st century. \n\n Chronic disease is largely a disease of how we live. Sleep\, stress\, food\, movement\, breath\, connection\, purpose — these are the levers that determine long-term health\, and they are precisely the territory yoga has been mapping for thousands of years. \n\n This year-long monthly course places the yogic tradition beside modern public health and lifestyle medicine\, and shows you how to work in both languages at once. You will study Ayurveda as a system of preventative care\, learn to think in terms of root cause rather than symptom\, and understand where yoga therapy fits inside the wider landscape of healthcare. \n\n Woven throughout is the foundation of therapeutic relationship: how to hold a professional container\, how to establish trust and appropriate boundaries\, and how to sit with someone's health story with genuine skill rather than good intentions alone. \n\n \n\n This Course Emphasizes \n\n \n →\n Yoga therapy as preventative\, root-cause\, whole-person care \n \n\n \n →\n Ayurveda as a living system of lifestyle medicine \n \n\n \n →\n A public health lens on prevention\, access\, and population wellbeing \n \n\n \n →\n The principles of therapeutic relationship\, ethics\, and professional boundaries \n \n\n \n →\n Where yoga therapy belongs in the future of integrative healthcare \n \n\n \n A Full Year\, One Lunch Break at a Time \n This course meets once a month on a Tuesday over lunch\, for ninety minutes\, across twelve months. It is designed to layer slowly — each session building on the last\, with time in between to let the material meet your actual life and your actual students. \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n The Schedule \n\n Twelve monthly sessions.\n\n All sessions meet on Zoom\, Tuesdays from 12:00 to 1:30 PM PT.
