Dounia Bouzoubaa had her first experience with yoga during the time she studied in Utrecht. After moving to Leiden (and finally graduating cum laude in cultural studies) she discovered the practice of (ashtanga) vinyasa yoga. Ashtanga vinyasa felt like coming home and she soon became more dedicated in her practice. She started teaching in 2007, both vinyasa yoga as well as more easy flow hatha classes.
Dounia got her international yoga teacher certificate in 2008 after finishing the GaiaTree Yoga Teacher Training in Bali (with Katiza Satya). And in  2010 she did the Insight Yoga Teacher Training Intensive with Sarah Powers.  She keeps on following her path by taking workshops and trainings in yin yoga and meditation with Sarah Powers and in vinyasa flow yoga with Twee Merrigan and Shiva Rea. Dounia continues to be inspired by her teachers and hopes she can bring some of these sparks of peace, inner strength and wisdom into her classes.
