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
