Troy

Name: Troy Abraham

Troy was a much-loved member of the Power Living senior facilitation crew for many years. A year after starting a family, he chose to dedicate as much time as possible to being a father and step away from full-time yoga teaching. He is missed here in the studios and we are so grateful that future students and members can still enjoy his teaching through our teacher training courses and on-demand content.

Troy’s Bio

Troy’s teaching style is powerful and he empowers his students to use yoga as a tool to discover the most connected version of themselves. Originally, Troy came to yoga to complement surfing and snowboarding. His commitment is to guiding the practice in a way that adds to an incredible life experience, rather than just a strong yoga practice. He teaches with a strong emphasis on breath and total immersion in the moment.

• Nearly ten years of teaching experience with over 15,000 hours of experience in the classroom in the United States, Australia, Japan, Hawaii, Canada and Mexico.
• Troy has worked with Baptiste Power Yoga, travelling as a senior facilitator and being personally mentored for three years by Baron Baptiste, one of the pioneers of Power Vinyasa Yoga.
• His formal accreditations include 1,000hr with the Baptiste Institute, Yoga Anatomy with Leslie Kaminoff and Dynamic Movement therapy with James Skalkos. He has practised yoga, Qigong and kung fu for 14 years.
• Troy is deeply passionate about supporting people to move in a way that transcends perceptions of limitations. In this area of life philosophy, he has studied and immersed himself in the work of leaders like Tony Robbins, Pedram Shojai and Georg Feuerstein.
• Troy has led and assisted in graduating hundreds of 200hr and 500hr students in the last decade, specialising in the art of assisting and the benefits of working with individual bodies in this area of yoga.

Troy has had a huge influence on our Teacher Training structure over the years and developed the Assisting Training in Australia. He brings with him a passion for movement and a wealth of knowledge. Troy is known as the assisting guru, so be sure to check out a class with him soon and let yourself fully experience your practice.
