When people ask me, “What exactly is Baptiste Power Yoga?” I tell them this: it’s not just another style of yoga. It’s a methodology—a practice designed to wake you up, strip away the unnecessary, and connect you to your personal power.
Baptiste Power Yoga is a modern, accessible approach to yoga practice and personal transformation. It combines physical asana, meditation, and self-inquiry. It’s not just about flexibility or aesthetics—it’s about generating real results in your body and in your life.
The Origins of Baptiste Power Yoga
I grew up surrounded by yoga. My parents were pioneers in bringing yoga and wellness to the West. But I saw a gap: too often, yoga stayed too soft or too rigid, abstract, or inaccessible.
I created Baptiste Power Yoga as a practice that anyone could step into—athletes, leaders, moms, entrepreneurs, people who had never rolled out a mat before. It had to be physically rigorous, mentally clarifying, and emotionally grounding.
This practice was built around three core elements:
- Asana – a strong, physical practice that builds vitality and power.
- Meditation – developing focus, presence, and mental clarity.
- Inquiry – self-reflection that cuts through old patterns and opens the door to transformation.
The Journey Into Power Sequence
At the heart of Baptiste Power Yoga is the Journey Into Power sequence. It’s a set sequence of poses taught worldwide in Baptiste studios, trainings, and programs.
It has 11 series of postures designed to:
- Build heat and strength.
- Develop balance and focus.
- Create openness and release.
- Leave you grounded and energized.
This flow works for all levels. Whether you’re new to yoga or a longtime practitioner, Journey Into Power meets you where you are and grows with you.
The 12 Laws of Transformation
Alongside the physical practice are the 12 Laws of Transformation, my framework for lasting change. These laws—like Be a Yes, Step Into the Flow, and Remove the Rocks—are principles that move you beyond theory and into action.
When practiced consistently, they help you:
- Break through resistance.
- Access resilience in the face of challenge.
- Align your actions with your highest purpose.
Why Baptiste Power Yoga Is Different
- It’s accessible: anyone can step in, regardless of fitness level.
- It’s adaptable: the practice works in a heated studio, your living room, or anywhere you roll out a mat.
- It’s transformational: every class is designed to create a shift in body, mind, and emotions.
I’ve seen Baptiste Power Yoga practiced in gyms, schools, prisons, boardrooms, community centers, and retreats around the globe. From the savanna of Kenya to the heart of Iceland, this practice brings people together in the pursuit of possibility.
The Global Movement
Today, Baptiste Power Yoga is practiced in communities worldwide, supported by:
- Journey Into Power: Level One & Level Two trainings
- Retreats and immersions (Tulum, Iceland, Kenya, Bali, and more)
- Baptiste Affiliate Studios and teachers across the U.S. and internationally
- Africa Yoga Project, training and supporting hundreds of teachers in Africa
This isn’t just about yoga—it’s about leadership, resilience, and living awake.
A Message from Me
I didn’t design Baptiste Power Yoga to fit into the yoga industry. I created it to transform lives. If you’re looking for a practice that challenges you, wakes you up, and helps you live with greater clarity and courage, this is it.
Roll out your mat. Step into the fire of practice. And discover who you are beyond limitation.
