During the upcoming October 2008 Bootcamp we will be offering a special Assistant Training Program.  We will be taking a smaller group of trainees and putting them through an intensive assistant training process.    Baron Baptiste, Gregor Singleton, and team will be mentoring, teaching, and demonstrating the different aspects of being a powerful hands-on assistant throughout the week.

Uniquely, this program will run in conjunction with the Personal Revolution Bootcamp Process and you will be participating in BOTH programs at once; it is sure to be a transformational experience!  So if YOU or anyone you know who wants to Give - Receive - Energy - Attitude - Total, learn effective and powerful assisting skills and grow in a new way of being, APPLY TODAY!  This is the last time this program will be offered in 2008. Requirement for acceptance into the GREAT Program is completion of Level 1 and/or Level 2.

This is an extremely intensive, hands-on training process. You will need to be 100% present, 100% of the time for the entire 8 days of Bootcamp. This experience will transform your understanding of impactful assisting.

This is a cutting edge training and limited only to a small committed group.   There is a small additional fee of $350 to participate in the GREAT Program.

Group Dynamic as Transformational Educational Process:

Baron and Master Baptiste teachers and assistants will lead you through a life shifting process. The foundation of the week will be the very transformative Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga practice, Meditation For Truthful Living and Educational Group Dialogue (e.g. Group coaching, dialogues, exercises, forums, journal writing exercises, etc.) based upon the principles of Socratic Style learning. The Baptiste method of education is more like coaching than teaching; more conversation than lecture.

To take our lives to the next level, it's important to first realize the same pattern of thinking and doing has brought us to where we are now and will not get us to where we want to be in the future. We must take time out of our daily lives to open up, expand our views, and shift to new places within ourselves to realize new possibilities for our lives. Enroll today and make Bootcamp the catalyst for your transformation.

PROGRAM BREAKDOWN

It seems that a lot of people who are searching for balance and excellence know what to do, but they don't follow what they know. The Personal Revolution Bootcamp will help you bridge the divide between knowing and doing. It is essentially a crash course in taking massive action with yogic repose. And the golden nugget is that it's not hard. It's fun.

Let me spell out what we have planned for you:

1. Awakening Your Physical Body: Unlocking your Body's Unlimited Potential

   This total immersion into Power Vinyasa Yoga practice is impossible to duplicate in the daily routine of your life. Each day, you will experience potent asana practices that will empower you to construct your "yogic" house on a rock solid foundation.

   Our objective is for you to permanently change your body. That doesn't mean making a pretzel or Iron man or woman out of you (though it's certainly possible if you desire). Rather, the teachers will work with you, diligently guiding you through strong and specific yoga practices to help you give birth to a profound physical change. During the course of the Bootcamp you will establish a strong foundation lasting far beyond this experience.

   Trying to pursue life in a body that is enervated, weak, mis-aligned, stiff, overweight, or just plain stressed is limiting. On this Bootcamp, watch your physical lethargy, aches, pains, and tension melt away. You will walk away from the experience with strength, lightness and joy.

2. Balancing Your Emotions: Meditation for Truthful Living "Be therefore transformed by the renewing of your mind from within."

   Each day, we'll practice a simple, guided, seated meditation for beginners. One week is certainly a very short time in which to penetrate the deepest levels of the unconscious mind and learn how to eradicate the complexes lying there. Yet, at the end of the Bootcamp, you will find yourself several layers lighter (like peeling an onion) and several layers deeper into the calm inner realm of your mind.

   Meditation will help you step out of the chaos of every day life, as the constant churning of your mind will reside in a new found serenity that will put you on a journey to your true self. Throughout the week, meditation will enlighten and illuminate your yoga practice, but more importantly it will serve as a practical tool that you can take home with you and use as an important anchor in your life.

3. Mastering Your Diet: The Cleansing-Purification Detox "Let Thy Food Be Thy Medicine" -- Hippocrates

   Over the 8 days, you will celebrate each meal in an exquisite cabana overlooking the Caribbean Sea. You will enjoy 3 healthy buffet-style meals a day. The chef will be using all of the freshest tropical ingredients to prepare a feast of low-fat, low-mucus, life-giving foods* And rest assured that special care is taken in the preparation and cleaning of all fruits and vegetables to ensure the good health of all yogis. If you have specific dietary concerns, please let us know.

   Also, if you have any of the following symptoms, you may be experiencing auto-intoxication (a process whereby poisonous free-radicals, such as toxins and metabolic waste matter, are building up in excess to create a kind of self- poisoning.) Your body may be storing or experiencing excess poisons in the following ways:

   • Excess weight (baggage your body does not need)
   • Slow or sluggish metabolism
   • General fatigue, lethargy, aches and pains
   • Anxiety, nervous tension, inability to concentrate
   • Bad breath, excessive or foul body odor, constipation, sluggish elimination, irregular bowel movements
   • Skin problems, rashes, pimples, zits, boils, acne
   • Frequent congestion, colds and viruses, weak immunity
   • Headaches, low back & neck aches
   • Low vitality

   If you have any of the above symptoms, you will benefit from this Bootcamp cleansing process. More generally, you'll experience a balancing out. If you need to gain weight, you will. If you need to lose weight, you'll realize weight loss as a matter of course, not as an objective in itself. Don't be surprised if your excess layers of body fluid and physical holding patterns dissolve, or if you're hyper and find a calmer self. If your prana, your life force, is low, you will gain energy. It is a week of ultimate balance.

   *Please note that we will also be experiencing a 3 day cleansing fruit fast. This is a rare opportunity to explore your relationship to healthy eating and your personal psychology and belief systems around food. Most participants are amazed by how energetic and alive they feel by the end of this gentle cleanse.

   
   

   Our question for you is this...

   If we could spend 8 days together in a transformational tropical setting, and over these 8 days we could work together, and apply the BEST of what we know, along with an uninterrupted focus on Physical Transformation & Self-Renewal, do you think you could experience higher levels of physical power and spiritual composure?

   Now it's up to you! If not now, when? If you are at all interested then please do not hesitate to fill out an application and send it in with a color photograph. Please keep in mind that the number of spaces is extremely limited. We will review the applications on a first-come basis.
