🌸THE ART OF SEQUENCING VINYASA & CREATIVE CLASS DESIGN
With Ron Reid & Marla Meenakshi Joy Ron Reid Marla Meenakshi Joy

29 April - 2 May 2027 at Agora Lisboa

We are very happy to welcome Ron and Marla back to Agora in Spring next year, for a 25-hour training exploring the art of sequencing and the creative process of building a yoga class.

How do we create sequences that make sense, build progressively, and offer students a meaningful experience? How can we teach with more clarity, confidence and creativity, while developing our own voice as teachers?

Over four days, you will explore the principles of sequencing, intelligent class design, adaptations for different levels, and ways to bring more depth and intention into our teaching.

Open to yoga teachers and experienced practitioners looking to deepen their understanding of asana and the art of teaching. This training can be taken as part of Agora 300H Yoga teacher training 💫

📍 Agora Lisboa
📅 29 April – 2 May 2027

Last month, we had the privilege of hosting our dear teachers, Richard Freeman and Mary Taylor, for a full week in Lisbon. Richard Freeman & Mary Taylor

Together, we explored through our bodies and minds the interconnected nature of all things: breath, heart, mind, nature… We chanted, breathed, meditated and moved together.

A practice that helps us feel whole, grounded, and more able to engage with life as it unfolds, through the good times and the difficult ones, through ageing and changing health. A practice that can support us in our everyday lives, in all of its aspects.

Thank you, Richard and Mary, for sharing your wisdom and your love🙏♥️

It is designed for yoga and meditation teachers who want to deepen their understanding of Yin, but also for anyone who simply wants to explore the practice more deeply.
