Class sequences are designed to improve mobility and function. 

Movements and deep breathing increase blood flow and strengthen your body at end ranges of motion for better stability and mobility. Yoga teachers are mindful that the students can transition with ease from one posture to another.

These 9 yoga principles  inform the choice a teacher makes

1. EACH BODY IS UNIQUE.
2. FLEXIBILITY IS NO GOOD WITHOUT STRENGTH.
3. SAFE STRENGTH BUILDING COMES FROM PROGRESSIVE LOADING.

1. OUR BODIES NEED A VARIETY OF MOVEMENT.
   
2. YOGA POSTURES CAN HEAL,  BUT ALSO HARM, IF NOT DONE PROPERLY.
3. MOST YOGA POSTURES ARE SPECIALIZED, NOT A FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT.

1. "LISTEN TO YOUR BODY" WORKS ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME.
   
2. USE CRITICAL THINKING TO ASSESS.
3. HONOR BOTH THE SCIENCE & THE "SPIRITUAL" SIDES OF YOGA.
