Denise Cook

Denise experimented with many styles of hatha yoga, Ashtanga Vinyasa and Bikram yoga before finding her home with Baptiste Power Yoga. Her first class with Baron was at a Yoga Journal Conference and it was truly "mind" changing. Denise had been teaching the primary series of Ashtanga and some hatha classes, but found her home instantly in Baptiste Yoga. One of the biggest learning tools that she found at her first Bootcamp was that anyone can teach asana, but it goes so much deeper than that.

"The Bootcamps that I have had with Baron cleansed away layers that were blocking me from receiving light, and I began to understand that there is a seamless connection between mind and body. There is often a gap between what our soul knows we should do and what are actions are. It is the practice and a process to make the gap smaller both on and off our mat."

Denise has been able to assist Baron several times throughout the last two years and finds each experience as valuable as the next. She continues to use her studio, Ya Ya Yoga, to teach and keep the Baptiste vibe alive in the Denver area. She is inspired by her two children Harrison and Teagan who are her muses for her Children's Yoga program.
