Dana began her relationship with yoga somewhere in the early Y2K era as a teen with an instructional book and space on the floor of her bedroom. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy from Ohio State University.
Dana teaches vinyasa, power, slow flow, yin and Ashtanga. She combines depth with humor for a practice that’s approachable and accessible. While honoring the tradition of yoga, Dana loves to peel back the layers and explore the practice in unexpected ways. She is a Reiki Master, who combines analogies of the subtle body with applied anatomy concepts.
Dana’s classes are specifically structured to work toward a deeper understanding of yoga through breath, alignment and philosophy, while making space for variation and play. Classes are sequenced with a purpose, while providing ways for students to personalize their practice. Dana aims to empower her students with choice, and the knowledge that they are the experts of their own bodies and minds.
Life motto: Everything everywhere will change.
