The 5 act structure
You love the idea of teaching mythology, but where do you start? Do you just tell a story and then teach poses? How do you make this actually work without it feeling forced?
Here's what changed everything for me: yoga classes and myths follow the same narrative arc. Both are hero's journeys. Both move through preparation, challenge, crisis, and integration.
Once I understood this, I stopped trying to add mythology to yoga. I let the myth become the class structure itself.
This is the 5-Act framework I use for every Sacred Stories class I teach.
