Some General Thoughts About Sequencing

一些关于体式顺序的普遍教学思路

Sequencing is highly subjective and does not follow dogmatic rules. But, a good sequence always takes into account the needs of students and proceeds accordingly. Here are some general thoughts to keep in mind as you develop your craft:

体式的顺序是高度主观而没有固定教条的。但是一个好的顺序编排总是让学生们从中受益。这里有一些普遍的思路，紧记他们能够帮助提高你的教学技巧。

l        In order to understand how sequencing works, you must first understand the effects of the poses that you are teaching. Similarly, you must explore the effects of sequencing in your home-practice. For example, you should have an idea of how practicing backbends before inversions feels and vice versa.

l        为了理解体式的顺序是如何产生作用的，你首先必须明白你所教授的体式的作用。同样的道理，你需要在你的家庭练习中去探索体式顺序所产生的作用。例如，你需要明白在倒立之前练习后弯的感觉，反之亦然。

l        Sequencing takes various factors into consideration such as the time of day you’re teaching; the time of year you’re teaching; your student’s ages, needs and experience level.

l        在体式顺序中需要考虑到那些变化的因素，例如你教授的课程在一天中的不同时段；课程在一年中的不同时间；学生的年龄，需求以及练习水平。

l        Sequencing includes the mindful application of movements within a specific pose, movements between poses of similar categories and movements of one category of poses to another.

l        体式顺序的安排思路还需要留心应用在特定的体式移动上，相同类型与不同类型体式之间的转换。

l        Practice seeing and understanding your students bodies’. What do they need to open, release, engage, or strengthen in order to deepen their experience of yoga?

l        练习观察和理解学生的身体。为了深入他们的瑜伽练习，他们的那些部分需要打开，放松，用力或强化？

l        Practice observing the effects of your sequences on your students.

l        练习观察体式顺序在学生们身上产生的作用。

l        There are several types of basic sequencing: Sequencing that focus on opening, strengthening and otherwise developing specific areas of the body; sequencing that focus on invoking specific physiological effects, such as deep relaxation or alleviating stress; sequencing that focus on developing certain poses; sequencing that addresses therapeutic needs.

l        基础的体式顺序有许多不同类型：强调打开、强化和开发身体特定的区域的体式序列；旨在调动特定的生理效果，例如深度的放松或缓解压力的体式序列；着重于深化某个特定体式的序列；针对治疗需求的体式序列。

l        If you know where you’re going, it’s easier to figure out how to get there.

l        如果你知道你要去哪儿，就更容易领会到怎么到达那里。

l        It’s a good idea to start with more accessible poses and proceed to more challenging poses—then, it’s nice to circle back into the more accessible poses with the newer, deeper experience that the challenging poses provided.

l        从简单的体式过渡到有更多挑战的体式是一个很好的方法——然后，最好再循环回到一个简单的体式，让高级体式中获得的经验服务于简单的体式。

l        Use yourself as a guinea pig and practice, practice, practice.

l        像实验室里的动物一样使用自己，练习，练习，练习。
