Bobbie Fultz
Bobbie Fultz has been teaching Iyengar Yoga since 1991. She is a certified Level 2 (level previously titled Junior Intermediate II) Iyengar Yoga Teacher (CIYT). She was blessed with the direct teaching and hands-on corrections from B.K.S. Iyengar and his daughter Geeta during 7 trips to Pune, India. During the latter 3 trips to RIMYI (Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute) Bobbie assisted during their medical classes and was guided by Geeta how to work with individual cases.
Bobbie’s training to teach was before teacher training courses became popular, through a 10 year apprenticeship with her primary teacher Mary Dunn in NYC. She has been influenced by senior Iyengar teachers: Ramanand Patel, Gabriella Giubilaro, John Schumacher, Patricia Walden, and Lois Steinberg. Current studies via Zoom keep Bobbie in touch with the continuing evolution of the Iyengar Method into the 21st century with the granddaughter Abhijata Iyengar and her uncle Prashant, now the primary teachers at RIMYI in Pune.
For 8 years Bobbie was the resident yoga teacher at Arsha Vidya Gurukulam, a traditional Advaitā Vedānta teaching institute in Saylorsburg, PA. The words of Pujya Swami Dayanada Saraswati expand the concept of yoga for her as a path to knowledge and Jñāna Mokśa .
Before residing in Santa Fe during several shifts in locales Bobbie taught weekly classes in San Francisco, New Jersey, and Denver, CO, after NYC. Her workshops on Yoga and Scoliosis began quarterly at IYINY and were later hosted by Iyengar Yoga studios in France, Italy, UK, Argentina, Czech Republic and Russia. She is retired from the traveling workshop trail, but remains an information resource for students with spinal issues as well as for teachers and body workers.
