Peentz Dubble has been a nationally Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher for 26 years and studies regularly with the Iyengar family in Pune, India. She began to practice yoga at age 13, finding that asana practice served to strengthen and develop flexibility while teaching her about alignment and movement that eliminated the chronic injury patterns she had developed as a dancer. She felt an immediate love for Iyengar yoga when first introduced to the practice in 1980.
Peentz was co-director of the first Iyengar Yoga Center in New York City and
a founding faculty member of the Iyengar Yoga Institute of New York. She moved to Boston in 1994

Patricia.

Yoga National
Association of the United States
