An Orange County native, Dannielle first came to yoga in 2016 following a grueling dance contract. While recovering from an unrelated injury, her yoga practice challenged her strength but, more importantly, gave her permission to let go of the expectations and pressure ever-present in daily life and allowed her to just be in the moment. The spiritual and mental side of the physical practice was a turning point, and she is passionate about sharing that experience with others.

Outside of her journey as a practitioner and teacher, Dannielle has over 25 years of classical dance training, a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre, and a professional performing resume that spans from Southern California to Las Vegas, New York City, and Hong Kong.

Dannielle’s sequences are designed to create a full-body experience, drawing students to fully inhabit their bodies and their space. She strives to both challenge students and create an accessible practice for a variety of bodies, as well as create an interesting, engaging, and accepting environment. Her sequences are an offering; come as you are, take what serves you, and allow yourself to find ease in challenges on and off the mat.
