Advanced Sequencing
75 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
with Gopi Kinnicutt
The body holds stories, patterns, and pain. In this 75-hour advanced module, we enter into the art of healing through movement, sequencing, and presence. You’ll learn how to see the body as a map—one shaped by emotion, experience, and energy—and guide students toward wholeness through intelligent, therapeutic yoga.

Gopi Kinnicutt
Gopi Kinnicutt (ERYT 500) is a dynamic, Bhakti-infused yoga teacher who has developed her own unique teaching style. She organically creates and designs dynamic fluid yoga sequences, infused with deep spirituality. In her classes she incorporates mantras, breath work, and Kriyas to release untouched energy and Prana. She bridges the philosophy of Yoga and the authentic traditions coming from India, making them accessible to the modern 21st century Yogi. Gopi is the owner of Bhakti Yoga DC and founder of Yoga Mandali in Saratoga Springs, New York.
Gopi has trained extensively with Shiva Rea, Ana Forrest, and Gary Kraftsow, and is certified and trained in trauma-sensitive yoga. Gopi also lived in a Bhakti Yoga ashram for 10 years, where she studied and taught Indian philosophy and mantra meditation.
This training centers on Body Smart Sequencing, a method of weaving postures into progressive mini-sequences that build both function and freedom. Using subtle adaptations, breath, and repetition, we retrain movement patterns to reduce pain, restore mobility, and prevent injury. It’s both intuitive and biomechanically precise.
You’ll develop a keen eye for imbalance, and learn to sequence for common areas of stress like the neck, shoulders, thoracic spine, hips, and lower back. Whether working one-on-one or leading dynamic group classes, you’ll be empowered to teach yoga that’s not just expressive—but truly healing.
Yoga is a path toward union, and that includes integration of body, breath, and awareness. This module helps you see and support your students holistically—with compassion, clarity, and precision.
