She finally joined.....Painter, Dancer, Mystic, Single mother, Anatomy-geek and a beloved teacher of teachers in Boston for the last two decades, Maybelle Rowntree is a national treasure.

Moving from New York in her 20s, Maybelle had a serious ballet career graduating from the Boston Conservatory to dance with the Boston Ballet and other companies, before Baptiste walked into a gym she taught at. Maybelle was one of the early crew at the legendary Porter Square studio (now part of Down Under) and has mentored many of Boston's heated flow teachers and movement specialists. With her blend of challenging power yoga, precise anatomical cuing, mysticism, and heartfelt spirit, Maybelle is a change agent. Designed for those with yoga experience, her classes implicitly ask students to GROW, while providing the information, tools, and support necessary to authentically do that. And most of all, her Joie de vivre. is contagious - and for the last decade, every time she's come to take class, our people hug her asking 'Maybelle when are you coming to join us'. She's ready and the blessing is entirely ours.
