Side-by-side comparison of yoga sequencing tools

Tummee and FLOW are the two names that come up most often when yoga teachers ask their colleagues which sequencing tool is worth paying for. They are also, on close inspection, optimized for very different teachers. Tummee is the long-standing incumbent — launched well over a decade ago, used by tens of thousands of teachers, and built around the largest pose library on the market. FLOW is the newer entrant, built in 2024-2025 on a modern mobile-first stack, with a smaller curated library and a deliberately narrower price.

We build FLOW, which means you should read this page with that bias in mind. We have tried to write it the way we would want a competitor to write about us — naming the things Tummee genuinely does better, and being specific about where the trade-offs land. If your honest answer after reading is "Tummee fits my teaching", that is a good outcome. We would rather you pay for the right tool than churn out of ours in two months.

The short version: Tummee wins on raw library size (8,000+ poses vs. our 420+), on years of accumulated content depth, and on therapeutic / restorative coverage. FLOW wins on mobile UX, on time-to-first-sequence, on price clarity, and on the small modern conveniences — shareable links, AI suggestions, a clean print-friendly PDF — that the newer codebase made easier to build.

The rest of this page goes through what each tool does well, where each falls short, and which kind of teacher should pick which. The comparison table below the body gives the numerical side-by-side.

The bottom line

Choose Tummee if you teach therapeutic, restorative, or yin yoga and you regularly need uncommon pose variations, prep poses, or alignment modifications you cannot find elsewhere. Its 8,000+ pose catalog and long-tail content gravity are genuinely unmatched. Choose FLOW if you teach vinyasa, hatha, or power yoga, plan classes from your phone, and value transparent pricing — $7.99/mo or $59.99/yr after a 3-day trial — alongside AI suggestions and clean shareable links. Most teachers will be happy with either; the deciding factor is usually whether you teach from the deep end of the pose catalog or the working middle of it.

What Tummee does well

Tummee's library is its standout feature, and the marketing numbers hold up when you actually browse it. Searching for almost any pose name — including obscure Sanskrit names, therapeutic variations, and prep poses — returns a usable result. For yoga therapists, senior teachers running teacher trainings, and anyone designing sequences for students with specific conditions, that breadth is the reason to subscribe.

The platform also has years of SEO content built around individual poses, which means Tummee pages rank for nearly every pose query you can think of. Even if you do not subscribe, the public pages are a useful reference. Tummee's community of teachers has built more than a million sequences inside the tool, and the shared-template library is large enough that you can usually find a starting point for most class themes.

For prop-heavy styles — Iyengar, restorative, prenatal, chair yoga, yoga therapy — Tummee's prop notation and variation depth are stronger than any competitor we have tested.

Where Tummee struggles

The product was built before mobile became the default device for class planning. The web interface is dense and lookup-heavy; the mobile experience works but feels like a desktop site shrunk down. We routinely hear teachers say they plan classes from their phone in transit, on a couch, between privates — and that workflow is uphill on Tummee.

The drag-and-drop builder feels slow in 2026 terms. Pages reload more than they should. PDF exports are functional but not beautiful — the layout looks like a sequence printed in 2014. Pricing is opaque on the marketing site (you typically need to start a trial to see your specific plan price), which puts Tummee on the wrong side of where SaaS pricing has moved.

There is also no built-in AI assistance for sequence generation as of our most recent review. That is fine — many teachers do not want AI in their planning — but it is a feature gap worth knowing about.

How FLOW compares

We made specific opposite trade-offs. The [pose library](/poses) is 420+ instead of 8,000+, but every pose has consistent professional imagery, alignment cues, benefits, and contraindications. The [drag-and-drop builder](/builder) is tuned for one-thumb mobile use — pose cards are touch-sized, the library panel slides in cleanly on small screens, and drag interactions stay at 60fps even with 30+ poses in a sequence.

[Pricing](/pricing) is public and simple: $7.99/mo or $59.99/yr after a 3-day trial. The free tier lets you build a 5-pose preview sequence so you can test the builder before paying. Pro users get unlimited flows, PDF export, shareable links, and AI suggestions that propose the next pose based on what is already in your sequence and the style you selected. The PDF export is print-friendly and looks like something you would happily hand to a sub teacher.

What FLOW does not yet do: the deepest prop notation Tummee offers, the long-tail therapeutic variations, the community sequence library at Tummee's scale. We are smaller on purpose for now — depth over breadth was the call.

Who should pick each

**Pick Tummee if:** you teach yoga therapy, restorative, prenatal, or chair yoga; you regularly use uncommon pose variations; you want access to a large community-built sequence library; you primarily plan on a desktop or laptop.

**Pick FLOW if:** you teach vinyasa, hatha, power, or yin to a general adult audience; you plan most of your classes from your phone; you want price clarity, a 3-day trial, and a modern interface; you would use AI suggestions or shareable student links if your tool offered them.

**Pick neither if:** you teach fewer than two classes a month — at that volume a free [Google Doc or Notion template](/tools) is genuinely enough. Both products are aimed at teachers planning weekly or daily.

Honest closer: most yoga teachers we have talked to could be productive on either platform. The choice is rarely about features and almost always about which interface gets out of your way fastest at 9pm the night before a 6am class. Try both for a real week of real classes before committing.

FAQ

Is FLOW a real competitor to Tummee?+

For vinyasa, hatha, and power yoga teachers, yes — FLOW covers the same core workflow (drag-and-drop sequence building, PDF export, sharing) at a lower price with a modern interface. For therapeutic and restorative teachers who need 8,000+ poses, Tummee remains the stronger fit.

How much does FLOW cost compared to Tummee?+

FLOW is publicly priced at $7.99/mo or $59.99/yr after a 3-day trial. Tummee’s pricing is plan-specific and typically shown after starting a trial — check tummee.com for current numbers.

Does FLOW have as many poses as Tummee?+

No. FLOW has 420+ curated poses; Tummee has 8,000+ including variations and prep poses. The trade-off is that every FLOW pose has consistent imagery and cues, whereas Tummee’s breadth comes with some variation in pose-page depth.

Does FLOW support PDF export and shareable links?+

Yes — both are included on the Pro plan. The PDF is print-friendly for handing to a sub teacher, and the shareable link works on a phone so students can pull up your sequence during class.
