The certification process is a trip!
I sent in my application including my video taped class, and the feedback I got was right on target and very, very good. Like, what you sort of knew, but someone puts into words for you. I was very nervous about actually doing the recording and all, but I am glad I did and I encourage anyone who may be holding back a little to definitely go for it. It is very worthwhile.

"One of the best parts of being a Certified Baptiste teacher is the community of amazing people it has put me in touch with. When I travel around the country or around the world to teach, the most valuable trips are those to events and studios of other Baptiste "family" members. Since we've all been through this process together, we can constantly uplift each other, not just with our teaching, but also to higher places as a person. Connecting with the Baptiste community continues to push me towards the transformation that started way back at my first Level One."

"As with any life's practice or commitment that calls for a specific direction, following my gut had a huge impact on my decision to train and eventually become certified as a Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga Teacher. I have always loved the flow, but I specifically loved the teachers! They all had this grounded spark of well, power. And I felt safe with them. I felt they were connected to me. Each of us is unique and Baron and his team do not try to make anyone fit any shape or size as teacher. He simply wants us to be the best teacher WE can be. I am thrilled that I moved through this 2-year process to become certified! It feels awesome. It's a great, humbling, and at times truly raw part of my life's experience."
