Vinyasa is a series of sequenced poses that seamlessly flow together. You’ll experience both foundational postures and creative variations that will strengthen, open, and restore your body and mind.
“Vinyasa” translates from Sanskrit as “to place in a special way.” As such, YTX’s vinyasa class encourages the student to be mindful of every movement and its connection within the arc of the practice.
Students are encouraged to gauge the intensity of their practice based on what they need at any given moment with a focus on smooth, mindful transitions and movement always guided by the breath.

Moving in Flow – AM Session
Sequencing a class is more than which pose goes where—a good sequence, while it might feel like flowing or dancing in your body, is much more than choreography.
How we connect poses and what we put in between poses in a flow class makes a big difference in how that class feels, and how we feel during and after the practice. Understanding the five movements of prana (pancha vayus) in the body helps both teachers and students of yoga “follow the energy” through the arc of a class.
In the first half of the day, we’ll unpack these movements of prana, and learn how they affect our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual states. We’ll work with energetic movements that can be used as a stand-alone practice or added into vinyasa, flow, and power classes.
We’ll tap into both our logical minds and our creative bodies as we link movement with breath, breath with heart, heart with mind, and move into that state of yoga that is oneness.
Peak Pose Sequencing – PM Session
Learning the tools of your trade will always support you in doing that trade with more skill and ease. This peak pose strategy session will help you become more adept at using “families of poses” to create skillful alignment and flow classes that lead to your “peak pose.”
Whether your peak pose is a basic standing pose, downward facing dog, or a more complex arm balance or backbend, the approach you will learn in this afternoon session will support you in teaching intelligent progressions that help you or your students grow in practice.

A slow, mindful practice bringing the body into balance and increasing natural range of motion. Most poses are done while seated or lying down, supported by props and held in stillness for several minutes.
This class targets the connective tissues, such as ligaments and fascia, along with the energetic systems of the body, bringing the body into balance and increasing its natural range of motion. As we move into stillness, we bring body, breath and soul into harmony. It’s a perfect complement to a more physical practice. You will leave class feeling refreshed, renewed and restored.
