This sequence is made by Benedicte Clementsen, owner and director of Yogarommet, a yoga school in Bergen, Norway, in collaboration with her students.

In the spring of 2024, Benedicte was invited to contribute to the Yoga Calendar Project 2025.

At the time she was pregnant and decided to include her student group, creating a sequence together with them.

The calendar includes a short snippet of this sequence, while this poster shows the full sequence. The result is a beautiful expression of their community and collaboration.

In this sequence, Benedicte highlights three aspects that are helpful in mastering arm balances, inversions and Padmasana variations: engaging the back of the legs, rounding the back, and lengthening the quadriceps—combined with the right amount of core activation.

All illustrations are handmade with love to bring joy and inspire your yoga practice. Colors may vary slightly depending on your screen settings.
