Read what past Personal Revolution Weekend participants have to say
"Last Saturday was probably one of the best days of my life. I am so thankful for the experience. My father passed away at the age of 50. I am 53 today and Yoga and Baron have, I believe, kept me alive, inspired, and happy. Thank you so very much. My experience was a dream come true."
- Karen Markman, New York, NY
"I thought the day was very moving. Baron was both warm and engaging, and he was truly present for every student. I was honored to
be part of such a magical group and day! Thank you!"
-Carrie Herscovici, Rochester, NY
"I enjoyed every minute of Baron's workshop. The biggest gift I took
from the day was the gift that going to the
mat gives me each time I practice. When I get to the mat it's like
I press the Pause button on my life. No
antidepressant can do that for me.
I'm hoping to attend a Level 1 teacher training boot camp."
- Julie Scuderi, Rochester, NY
"The day was extremely Beautiful. I thank you for guiding me through questions that I so often ask myself, but find it difficult to answer. The day allowed me to open up and speak from the Heart."
- Katie Applewhite, Fairfield, New Jersey
"Ithought it was absolutely wonderful in every way and I thoroughly enjoyed the day."
- Kathleen Frasetto, New York, NY
"I attended your Teacher Training In New York during August and just recently attended your Personal Revolution in New York in November. The teacher training really made me reflect . I came to another training because I realized how much more work I had to do. When I left the New York PRW, I let go of something that I've held onto for a long time. It was very freeing. Thank you for rekindling my light."
- Linda Carlin, Canton, CT
"Three years ago I was diagnosed with serious breast cancer. After a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction and chemotherapy I could barely do a cobra or a downdog. But here I was this past weekend in NYC hanging tough with all the yogies. I LOVED IT! What a great teacher Baron is! Thank you for giving me my strength back."
- Lizz Smith,
Clarks Summit, PA
"Thanks for such a great weekend! You made me work so hard... my whole being is shining!"
- Kristy Allen,
Seattle, WA
"Words don't do justice to describe the incredible weekend in Seattle with Baron. Thank you, Baron, for sharing your gifts."
- Tracey Bunch,
Coeur d'Alene, ID
"Thanks for everything, Baron!! I had a wonderful experience during the revolution weekend in Seattle. I taught my yoga class the next day and recieved emails telling me it was one of the best classes they have attended. I owe it all to your inspiring wisdom."
- Sarah Ishler,
Monroe, WA
"Absolutely incredible! I love this type of yoga and it resonates with me on every level. This yoga has put me on the fast track toward healing. Your program and philosophy is so much a miracle. I can't wait to share that with others."
- Jo Parsons,
Lynnwood, WA
"All I can say is Wow!! If I wasn't hooked on Yoga before today, I am now. What an inspirational weekend. My body thanks you."
- Dana Fayette,
Kirkland, WA
"I experienced many wonderful breakthroughs in my understanding and joy. I can't say in words how much this meant to me..."
- Michel Wubank Spruance,
Seattle, WA
"These are some words that come to mind after the Dallas Wknd Bootcamp: Amazing. Intense. Exhausting. Uplifting. Inspiring. These words cannot come close to explaining the feelings of the weekend! I truly loved it!"
- Dawna Muir,
Amarillo, TX
"I attended your weekend retreat recently in Dallas and the program truly touched a deep place inside me. As a military member I have struggled on the mat since 9-11. Mainly because at that point in my life I was teaching, working with troubled youth, walking, practicing yoga and learning about myself. 9-11 threw me once again into the military life. I was returned to active duty because in my specialty the Air Force is short and because I have always been drawn to serving my nation. Even though this is where my path has led me, my heart has struggled. I found this weekend my struggle on the mat was accepting my place in the military. I have not found the answer to the struggle, but am happy to at least recognize it."
- Melinda Morgan,
Edmond, OK
"Baron, I attended your workshop this past weekend in Dallas, TX. It was one of the best experiences. As a new student to yoga I have to say I am now hooked. Thanks so much for sharing your wisdom with us. I hope to attend a bootcamp soon."
- Penny James,
Garland, TX
"Just retuned from personal revolution weekend in Dallas, absolutely awesome. Baron and everyone involved was superb. I loved every moment."
- L.A. Landry,
Baton Rouge, LA
"Dallas personal revolution weekend! It is so awesome when you realize there is definitely a higher power in control of your life and you are significant. Thank you... I feel God definitely used you to speak to me this weekend."
- Julie Meyers,
Ruston, LA
"Baron, I loved your workshop this past weekend in Dallas. In 1998, I attended a Renewal weekend at my Catholic Church. The weekend was a spiritual cleansing. It helped cleanse the heart, and surround myself in God's love and forgiveness. After the weekend, I was floating on a cloud because of the happiness in my heart and mind and knowing I had been set free of the past... Your workshop made me feel the happiness I felt after the renewal weekend. Everything seems to be crystal clear and sharp. The connection with my practice and my tight spots in my body make sense to me now."
- Lisa Marsh,
Coppell, TX
"I really, really enjoyed the BARON'S PERSONAL REVOLUTION WEEKEND. The instructions and teachings received during that weekend have changed my life forever! Baron has such a way of letting the "power of love" comes out in his teaching. Whereas, the poses you consider difficult - now become easy. Why? Because Baron shows you how to become one with your Yoga mat. His teachings help with the renewing of the mind, which will help retrain the body. I highly recommend Baron's teaching to anyone who takes or teaches Yoga! Because of this weekend with Baron, it is now one of my greatest desires - to take Baron's teacher training certification programs or anything type of training that he offers. Thank you Baron for allowing truth, peace, wisdom and love to rule and rest in your being."
- Joseph B. Stingley,
Arlington, TX
"The Personal Revolution Weekend in Boston was fantastic. I am more impressed than ever (after five years of happy regular attendance at the Cambridge studio's classes) with Baron's exceptional teaching and inspiring presence, the wisdom and care shown by the angelic assistants and the seamless quality of the weekend as ensured by the wonderful BPYI staff. It was magic."
- Martha Hall,
Cambridge, MA
"I have not fully comprehended the effects of the Boston Personal Revolution Weekend, but I know what I feel and how I felt last night and that is truly all that matters. I feel strong now and motivated to confront things I have not wanted to do or had the energy to do. I love the feeling of clarity and cleanness and energy that comes from a good practice. This was two consecutive days of it. I can not wait to get back to the mat. It is an extraordinary, rare, indescribable feeling and I would encourage ANYONE to give it a try. I had no expectations. I certainly did not expect to feel so happy."
- Patricia Simboli,
Boston, MA
"This was my first workshop of any kind ever. Hearing 250 peole chant OM in unison was worth it alone. What a beautiful sound. I came in on Friday afternoon, all the while on the road on my cell phone listening to an angry client on the phone screaming her head off at me because I was not at the office, although I had scheduled this afternoon off. I could do nothing and came to our first night a bundle of nerves. I left that evening so light and free. I allowed myself to just surrender to this weekend. I have never practiced so much in such a short time and although I am sore I feel as if I could practice again and again, I truly made big strides this weekend and look forward to taking it to my practice here at home. I can't wait to come to the next retreat. I want to thank Baron for sharing his practice with me and all the wonderful assistants who helped me along the way. You were all so generous with your time. Namaste!"
- Roni, Stamford, CT
"Thanks for a great weekend of excellent practice. I had several fears going in: that it would be too hard and that Baron would act the part of a "guru" and I would get turned off. As with most fears, they did not materialize. Instead, I found the Practice challenging, but invigorating and Baron a great teacher who doesn't pretend to have all the answers. I am thankful for my practice and for the way it's changed me!"
- Jennifer Colleran,
Wayne, PA
What a remarkable time. Nearly 250 individuals coming together in one large class and did we WORK! It culminated with a very personal and emotional experience for me Friday night...while listening to Krishna Das as we were wrapping up, all singing together, clapping in unison, I found myself in a very pleasant trance-like state, looking out into the harbor, and had a very spiritual experience of connecting with my grandmother (since passed) who I was very close to; a tear of joy came to my eye knowing I am greatly cared for and watched over! Thanks for a great experience! It was very affirming, centering, and a great reminder to "simply BE!!!". Loved it all!"
- Tom Fronczak,
Providence, RI
"Thank you for a weekend of love, and beautiful challenge. I'm so thankful to have experienced such intense practice. Your promises of focus, and clarity were truly met, and each practice session was a revelation for me. Thank you Baron for your discussions and insight."
- Layla Velazquez,
West Paterson, NJ
