If your classes have started to feel like the same class on repeat, it's not your imagination, it's your defaults. This weekend is where you learn to build fresh, intentional flows on purpose, instead of teaching on autopilot.
YOU'LL LEAVE WITH
Clear sequencing principles you can apply immediately
Tools to move beyond repetitive templates with clarity
Greater confidence in your sequencing choices
WHAT THEY ARE SAYING
Hear it from them
01
Krama & creative progressions
Build sequences through intentional layering: adapting and scaling poses so classes feel clear and embodied. Using krama, you'll deepen experience through changes in range, tempo, and orientation, keeping flows fresh without piling on more poses.
02
Frameworks & transition design
Work with clear sequencing frameworks and archetypes: ladder, krama, puzzle, and namaskar-inspired structures, that organise a class without limiting expression. Plus practical tools to build fluid transitions from any asana, so transitions become points of connection, not afterthoughts.
03
Sequencing from movement initiation
Explore how movement begins and travels in the body. This somatic lens shifts attention from arriving in shapes toward internal organisation, timing, and continuity, placing transitions at the centre of the flow.

WHY THIS TRAINING MATTERS
Sequencing determines how a class feels: physically, mentally, emotionally. Without clear sequencing logic, even well-intended classes can feel repetitive or disjointed, leaving students without a sense of direction. Sequencing Alchemy helps you understand how sequences work, so you can design classes that feel intentional and responsive, and adapt confidently to different students, contexts, and moments.
YOU'LL BE ABLE TO
Design sequences with clear intention, structure, and creative coherence
Build classes from adaptable frameworks rather than fixed templates
Create fluid, intelligent transitions that support continuity and flow
Use movement-initiation principles to deepen embodiment and responsiveness

Your trainers
Who you'll learn from
Fanny Alavoine and Willemieke Verweij teach this training together. Fanny brings creative, intelligent sequencing, from krama to transitions. Willemieke brings dance and movement initiation, so a sequence grows from how the body wants to move.
The Sequencing Alchemy module at Tribes Academy has provided me a solid framework that allows me to approach sequencing with more creativity and confidence.
Liesbeth
This training enriched my teacher practice in so many ways.
Imke
I really enjoyed learning more about sequencing. Fanny is very knowledgeable and experienced and has so much to share on sequencing and her own approach to sequencing.
Niki
The Russian dolls, the tools for poses, kramas, etc., I just loved the tools to create new poses and transitions. I cannot begin to express how those changed my practice.

YOUR QUESTIONS
Good to know
Do I need a Vinyasa background for the weekend trainings and immersives?
No. Our weekend trainings and immersives are open to teachers of any style: yoga, Pilates, barre or dance. Being familiar with flow-style classes helps, but you don't need a Vinyasa background or a 200h Vinyasa training.
Are the manuals included?
No, the manuals are given to you as part of the training.
Do I need to be enrolled in the 300h Modern Vinyasa training to join this module?
No, you’re welcome to join this module as a standalone training. If you decide later to enrol in the full 300h programme, this module will count toward your certification.
How good does my English need to be?
Our trainee & trainer(s) community is international and multilingual: you’ll hear many accents and cultural backgrounds in the room. You do need a good understanding of English and the ability to communicate in it, but your English doesn’t have to be perfect. You’re always welcome to ask for clarification or repetition during the training.
