Assisting - making the connection between the intention of the teacher and the experience of the student

Join the world class teaching team of Baptiste Power Yoga for a fun and interactive training! This hands on training will spark your true understanding of asana. You will experience principles of alignment with a deepened awareness which will allow you to fully understand any pose. You will learn concrete skills for safe, effective hands-on assisting.

"Asana is perfect firmness of body, steadiness of intellect, and benevolence of spirit." - B.K.S. IYENGAR

This workshop is open to everyone! You need not have completed any of BPYI's teacher training programs to participate. Teachers and non-teachers alike will receive great benefit from this training. Teachers will gain confidence in their interactions with students on and off the mat. Non-teachers will receive a new perspective of their personal practice. Your days in Boston will be balanced between practicing, learning alignment principles, and giving and receiving assists. Your evenings will be free, allowing you to explore our great city with your new yoga friends.
