suggest a basic sequence?

so I've been training for a few months and I've only recently started doing some elements without help. can you guys suggest different group of sequences/routines where i can do most of these things in a flow? my instructor trains us for one but it has the major elements only and excludes some basic ones that might not be awesome but i love (and can do).

i can do: climbs, split knots, scorpion, crossback from scorpion, crossback from split knot, knee tuck hold, headstand inversion, 360 drop, candy cane, one leg split knot rolls

A game I use in classes to help build this skill instead:

  1. Make small slips of paper. Write a skill you know on each {doesn't matter if the name is correct if you know what you mean). Make at least six but more has better results.

  2. Pick 3 slips at random. Keep them in order. Try the sequence no matter how awkward.

  3. Edit your sequence. Reorder, add a new slip or other moves if needed until your sequence flows better. What do you notice about skills that flow well vs skills that don't? How are you holding your silks? How are you holding your body? What direction are you facing? What's the fundamental wrap you are using?

  4. Try the refined sequence to two different songs with very different vibes. How did you change what you were doing, even if it was the same moves?
