“WE PROCLAIM HIM, ADMONISHING AND TEACHING WITH ALL WISDOM SO WE CAN PRESENT EVERYONE PERFECT IN CHRIST.” COLOSSIANS 1:28

MODULE 5 LESSON 4

Put it Into Practice: Creating a Christian Yoga Class- 3

In this lesson, we create an awe-inspiring Christian yoga class. 

Let’s Begin

Step 1: Select a Scriptural Theme

Select a Scriptural theme from your master list based on a scripture that illustrates visual imagery. 

Step 2: Open the Class by reading the scripture in its entirety. 

Step 3: Pair the visuals of the scripture to poses. If the scripture is too long, shorten it and use specific parts of the scripture in conjunction with the poses. For example, if you used scripture with a tree visual, then pair it to tree pose. 

Step 4: Final Relaxation: Use Breath Meditation to the selected scripture. It is okay to shorten the scripture if needed. 

Step 5: Close the class with a set prayer. 

Into Action: 

Next, write out your class in its entirety, from start to finish. Complete with poses, breathing techniques, cues, etc. Ideally, this would be for the amount of time you are accustomed to teaching (like one hour).

Post a picture of your completed class outline and post it to the PCYTT Facebook group. Label it PCYTT Class Outline 3. 

Write or type out your completed class. If you use notes when teaching, you will want to begin to place these notes into one place like a folder, binder, or notebook.
