Courtney Griffin

Owner & Instructor

In 2011 I came to a crossroads in my life and realized I needed a big change.  My friend encouraged me to go to Austin, Texas and participate in a Level One Bootcamp yoga training with Baron Baptiste.  I knew very little about yoga and even less about a bootcamp. By the end of the week I knew that I was on to something powerful and life changing.  I spent the next 4 years doing the work to heal what was broken within me and training to become a yoga teacher. That turned out to be one of the best decisions I ever made.
Today, I am a 500 hour E-RYT (Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher) with Yoga Alliance and a Certified Tier 1 Baptiste Yoga Instructor. I am remarried to my best friend, Steve. together we have 3 kids and 5 grandkids who inspire me endlessly.  I am grateful to have such a rich life; and, I am committed to holding a powerful space for others to seek and discover their greatest possibilities.

Our Mission:

Our Core Values:

Community: Seeing every interaction as an opportunity to create and strengthen connection, everywhere with everyone.

Compassion: Awareness of those around us and treating others as we would like to be treated.

Why Baptiste Yoga:

The Baptiste YogaTM practice and programs, founded by Baron Baptiste, are designed to empower you with the focus, training and insight you need to achieve consistent results in the most important areas of your life. The tools of transformation include a powerful physical yoga practice, meditation and active self inquiry. It is designed to help you awaken possibility and discover your full potential here and now!

Much of the physical aspect of the Baptiste YogaTM style are inspired by the Hatha Yoga teachings of Krishnamacharya and his students BKS Iyengar and Desikachar, whom Baron studied with personally from a young age. This methodology is practiced by people across the world and from all walks of life. From CEO’s, professional athletes, Wounded Warriors to Masai Warriors (no joke); Baptiste yoga is accessible to everyone. Come and discover what is possible for you.
