Training Overview

The Level One training offers instruction on Baptiste Yoga methodology through five days of classroom instruction, small-group practice sessions, and coach-led inquiry. The Level One environment and all aspects of the course are supportive of all levels of practitioners, teachers and leaders, from the absolute beginner to the more experienced. It also works for those who have no desire to teach or lead, but are looking to update and elevate their life.

INSIDE THE LEVEL ONE TRAINING

CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION:

Instruction includes workshops on foundational postures & proper alignment, application of the Baptiste Yoga methodology, meditation and inquiry.

PRACTICES:

The daily practices will provide an opportunity to deepen and evolve your own practice and give examples of how to conduct a group class, hold a standard of proper principles, mechanics and alignment for any level of ability.

Asana Training: The Journey Into Power Practice

Journey Into Power, the heart of Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga, comprises 11 core sequences. Each of the 11 sequences carries its own unique purpose, incorporating elements like drishti (focused gaze), Ujjayi breath, core strength, alignment, full-body engagement, muscle activation, and graceful flow. These postures within the sequence are both fluid and functional, utilizing one’s body weight as resistance. They follow a wave-like motion, emanating from the core and extending outward to the periphery, ultimately returning to Tadasana—the center point of True North Alignment. This is the essence of Journey Into Power.

Daily Physical Practice

Prepare for a profound metamorphosis, not just physically, but within your very being, driven by the practice of Baptiste power vinyasa yoga, and the Journey Into Power sequence. Your own transformation becomes the wellspring from which you teach and guide others on their personal path of self-discovery and real positive change.

Daily Meditation Practice. A Path To Awareness

Awaken Inner Power

Guided by Baron Baptiste and co-facilitators, you’ll experience empowering daily meditation practices. This practice will unveil the presence of something greater, higher intuition, and a clear vision for your life. You’ll open up to your guiding light across all aspects of your life and leadership.

Inquiry. Becoming A Leader Who Leads Themselves

Inquiry sessions help you to unveil blind spots and disrupt ineffective patterns in life, living and leading. This newfound awareness fuels a profound shift, liberating a new found authenticity, meaningful action and natural self-expression. The inquiry sessions guide you to find peace in the present and drive change where it matters.

Small Group Practice Sessions:

Small group practice sessions focus on improving individual participants’ technical knowledge and application while coaches engage participants in a dialogue that illuminates and reinforces effective strategies for leading others.
