Studio in Details
Overview
Stone Pine Yoga Studio in Burlington offers a welcoming environment with small class sizes that prioritize individualized attention. Founded by Deborah Bouttell, a practitioner of over 20 years and teacher for nine, the studio emerged from an online during the pandemic, transitioned to outdoor deck sessions, and eventually found a permanent home in a renovated basement. Bouttell’s approach blends movement with breath alignment, aiming to balance mind, body, and spirit. Her teaching is informed by a deep passion for anatomy, having taught Yoga Anatomy for several teacher training programs. She encourages students to listen to their bodies, using props, breath, and humor to explore practice within personal limits. Classes are designed to be challenging yet accessible to all levels.
Classes and Offerings
The studio offers a range of practices rooted in alignment-based yoga, with an emphasis on breath and movement. Bouttell’s extensive training includes a 500-hour RYT, a 50-hour Yin training under Bernie Clark, and specialized study in Therapeutic Yoga with Leslie Kaminoff, covering anatomy, philosophy, and breath. She is also certified in Trauma Informed Yoga, SUP yoga, and Yoga Nidra, and currently studies Somatic Yoga with Jivasu at Sohaam. In addition to regular classes, Stone Pine Yoga Studio organizes retreats. A retreat at Bloom Holistic Retreat Center from October 31 to November 2, 2025, is already sold out, and a future retreat with Jen Kelly and Deb Bouttell in Taranto, Italy, is scheduled for August 23–29, 2026. These offerings provide opportunities for deeper practice and community connection.
Visitor Experience

Classes emphasize body awareness and safety, with props readily available to support different needs. The studio’s evolution from online to a physical space reflects a commitment to building a supportive community. Students are encouraged to explore their own physical freedom, with each session blending mindful breath work and alignment.
