 POWER YOGA, 200-HOUR TEACHER TRAINING
Fitness Australia 15 CEC Accreditation & Yoga Alliance 200hr Accreditation
This is a 200hr intensive course spread over 3 months to a year long course that totally immerses the students in the knowledge of a basic Power Yoga Sequence, introduction to the history of Yoga and intense personal development to prepare the student for the role as a teacher. This course introduces the students to anatomy and physiology of Hatha Yoga, Patanjali’s Astanga limb Yoga path and many other philosophies.
The course is aimed at producing knowledgeable, authentic teachers who can teach at any venue and be powerful! We are committed to teaching Yoga in a way that is accessible to our modern society, demystified and practical for daily application and ultimately as a way of life.
The modules focus on an in-depth understanding of the anatomy and physiology of Hatha Yoga, Power Yoga asana (postures) and assisting, selecting and designing different sequences, Yoga physiology and philosophy, introduction to Ayurveda, meditation and pranayama, counseling skills and techniques, connecting with your class, and practical teaching experience with feedback.
Duncan Peak, Power Living’s founder and the course director, leads the training and is assisted by guest lecturers who are subject matter experts in their field of study, e.g. Yoga philosophy, anatomy & physiology, etc. This is an amazing course to build a foundation for a lifetime of learning.
Our courses are also valuable to students who may not be interested in teaching, but want to immerse themselves to develop a greater understanding of this great practice.

 POWER YOGA ASSISTING PROGRAM – 20 HOURS
Power Living's Power Yoga Assisting Program is a world-class training opportunity to learn from the best in the business, Duncan Peak, the founder of Power Living Australia and Fiona Leard, Yoga teacher to Olympic and Elite athletes. This new program is unique to Power Living and the first of its kind in Australia.
Our program is designed to teach Assistants, through touch, presence and direction, to help increase a student's awareness of their own alignment and bring them into their bodies. We are committed to teaching Power Yoga, a dynamic practice with safe postures. Our assisting techniques support that aim rather than seeking to bring students into the "perfect" pose or contortionism.
Our Assisting Program fosters a karmic Yoga atmosphere at our studio and on our retreats where assistants act in service to the students, enhancing their practice experience. Assisting is a chance to develop another dimension of personal practice as you become aware not only of your own body and energy but also others' unique bodies and the union of energy that occurs through an assist. The assistant plays a unique role during a Yoga class as their hands and energy serves as a bridge between the teacher's words and the experience in a student's body.
The aims of our assisting course are to teach:
• Safe, effective assisting and adjusting techniques
• Different types of assists
• Safe alignment, joint movements and muscles engaged in postures
• How to support and enhance the practice experience for the student
You will:
• Enhance your teaching in the classroom and working one on one with students
• Gain confidence as an Assistant Teacher
• Develop a deeper understanding of their personal Yoga practice
• Have opportunities to join the Power Living assisting team on retreats or in the studio
Students enrolled in the Power Yoga 200-hr Teacher Training course are required to participate in this program.
If you have completed a Yoga Teacher training course previously or are interested in refreshing and enhancing your assisting skills, or simply interested in deepening your personal Yoga practice, you may apply to participate in this program alone. No previous experience is required to participate in the Power Living Assisting Program.
40 DAYS TO PERSONAL 
REVOLUTION
The purpose of this 40-day program is to lead you into your own personal revolution. Like the great masters, you will come to understand that all health and vitality is the outward reflection of a pure heart and right intent.
As you start to align your mind with the principles of the program, you will start to see that transformation is natural. You will lose weight if that is what needs to happen; you will become less reactive and calmer; your negative patterns will start to release their grip on you. You will discover that external changes happen when we adjust the inner workings of our minds – when we adopt a philosophical foundation that gives our growth greater purpose and meaning.
Each week of the program is centered on a theme, which will be the focus for your yoga and meditation practice, your new diet insight and your personal development. These themes are outlined in our companion book, Baron Baptiste’s “40 Days to Personal Revolution”, and will be the topic for discussion at the weekly community meeting.
Week 1 – Presence
Week 2 – Vitality
Week 3 – Equanimity
Week 4 – Restoration
Week 5 – Centering
Week 6 – Triumph
The program includes:
Power Yoga Practice - 5 times a week at the studio, practice any of the classes that suit your schedule
