About Patrick

I have been working with my body across a variety of different disciplines and circumstances since childhood. I did various competitive sports throughout my life with a focus on body conditioning and nutrition.

I have dedicated 4 decades to physical training/education, nutrition, martial arts, yoga, meditation, and other contemplative practices, and I'm the founder of the Baseworks Method.

I’ve lived in Asia for over 30 years, having been directly exposed to various Buddhist practices, yoga, martial arts, and eastern philosophy.

My introduction to yoga was through East Indian teachers and immersive study in the Sivananda, Bihar, Ashtanga Vinyasa, and Iyengar schools of modern yoga.

Japanese, Chinese, Thai, Laotian, Burmese, and Indonesian teachers introduced me to martial arts and meditation.

In 2003, I founded YogaJaya studio in Tokyo, Japan. The studio served the community in Asia with over 30,000 classes to a collective attendance of 500,000 students, delivering over 500 specialized workshops and events to date.

I am a Yoga Alliance 500-hour experienced accredited teacher (ERYT500), teacher trainer, and personal trainer. I have a personal record of training over 10,000 students across 30,000 hours in 15 countries since the 90s.

I've trained a wide scope of students ranging from those completely new to any kind of physical and metaphysical training to professional athletes & dancers, health wellness & fitness sector instructors, health care professionals, and medical doctors.

I LOVE teaching and desire to make my unique expertise and skillset accessible to as many interested people as possible.

I am currently based between Canada, Europe, and Asia and serve long-time students and clients in person and virtually on 6 continents.

For meditation, you will learn:

- how to properly sit in a way that will not hurt your knees or hips while keeping your spine upright and straight.
- not in a pseudo-spiritual way, but in a way that helps you to experience its inevitable corresponding effect on perception, which directly relates to a more enlightened way of living your life.
- how to become comfortable with being still.
- fundamental techniques of mindfulness.
- how to embrace mindfulness from a place where others may not perceive you as being mindful.

For breathing/pranayama, you will learn:

- how to compartmentalize breathing in different ways and control breathing-related muscles.
- to be aware of the varying qualities of breathing.
- to increase your breathing capacity.
- classical Indian breathing techniques and rhythms.
- how to slow down your heartbeat by breathing.
- how to use various breathing techniques to manipulate your physiological and psychological state.

I am not going to:

Make you hyperventilate to the point of brain hypoxia and then suggest that it is a divine spiritual experience.
(unfortunately, many trend-driven teachers exploit this simple physiological effect to sell the experience without warning the students that it may actually hurt them)

To clarify, I am not offering you a relaxing pseudo-spiritual experience for learning either pranayama or meditation. But rather something that can be adapted and developed alongside changing/challenging life circumstances.

In your first free session, we can go over what your objectives are and determine if what I can offer could be a good fit.
