From Chaos to Clarity: How The Peak Pose Method Simplifies Sequencing

Every yoga teacher knows the feeling. You spend hours preparing your class, studying anatomy, and mapping out the perfect flow. Then you step into the studio and see that the group in front of you needs something different. The energy is off, the levels vary, and suddenly your plan doesn’t fit.

In this video, Nele van Poucke shares why she created The Peak Pose Method — a practical approach that brings more structure and ease to sequencing.

A clear focus for every class

The method starts with one simple idea: the peak pose as your focal point.
Instead of stringing poses together randomly, you begin by analysing the main posture you want to teach. What does the body need to prepare for it? Which actions, joints, or shapes are involved? Once you know that, building the rest of your sequence becomes clear and logical.

When students reach the peak pose, they feel ready — both physically and mentally — because every step has guided them there.

Adapt with confidence

Another part of the method is flexibility. Classes rarely go as planned, and that’s okay.
The Peak Pose Method helps you recognise what to adjust on the spot without throwing your whole plan away. You learn how to make small changes that keep your structure intact while still meeting the needs of your students.

It saves time, reduces stress, and keeps your classes balanced, even when things shift.

Teaching with more ease

Many teachers tell Nele they feel more spacious and confident after applying this approach.
The method helps them plan faster and walk into class knowing they can adapt with ease. It’s a way to reconnect with the joy of teaching — feeling both grounded and creative.
