Music can be an amazing tool to inspire your students, pace your flow, and deepen your theme/intention. Music can also be distracting, cumbersome and irrelevant. Come to class with some ideas about when a song or playlist really resonated with a moment in your practice, and/or when it really conflicted. Extra credit: bring a song idea for svasana, abs/core, and a flow sequence. There are no wrong answers, just exploration and ideas to bring another layer of harmony to your practice!
