Build a Sequence

Pick poses, set breaths, mark which ones get both sides. You get a running time, a figure strip you can read at a glance, and a page that prints onto something you can actually carry to a mat.

The whole sequence lives in the link. Copy the URL and you have handed someone the class — no login, nothing stored anywhere. That is still the default, and it costs nothing.

Those links run long, so there is also a Save: give an email address and you get a short permanent one instead. That is the only thing on this site that reaches a server, and the page says so at the point you press it rather than in a policy nobody reads.

The sequence

Save this sequence

You get a short permanent link instead of the long one. The address is stored so I can see who finds this useful, and so you can look your sequences up later — the lookup shows it back masked, as pe**@**en.com. I can see it in full; nobody else can, and nothing is ever mailed to you.

Find sequences you saved

A convenience, not a login — anyone who knows an address can list what it saved. Fine for class plans; it would not be fine for anything that mattered. The address is only ever shown back masked.

How it counts

Breaths, not minutes. A sequence written in minutes stops being true the first time a room is slower than you expected. Breaths hold their shape. The clock here assumes roughly five seconds a breath, which is an ordinary vinyasa pace and certainly wrong for your room — treat the total as a sanity check on the arc, not a schedule.

Both sides doubles the count. Poses that have a left and a right are marked in the data rather than guessed from the name, because plenty of symmetric poses contain ardha and plenty of asymmetric ones do not. Thirty-nine of the 218 are two-sided. Set one to a single side when you mean to come back to it.

Sections are just labels. They cost no time and carry no logic. They are there because most people plan an arc before they plan poses, and writing Peak before you know what the peak is turns out to be how it actually goes.

What this does not do

It will not tell you a sequence is wrong. There is no model here of counterposes, of what a spine needs after a deep backbend, or of how long a room can hold a standing series before it stops listening. Those are the actual craft and they are not in a data file.

What it does is the bookkeeping — the order, the count, the sides, the clock — so the part that needs a teacher gets the attention instead.
