Private/​Small Group Yoga Lessons… Learn How to Fly… I either travel to you or you come to my BEAUTIFUL private studio on the UWS in NYC.

I am a certified yoga instructor (RYT 200), am certified in both adult and child CPR/​AED, have been practicing for 12 years, and have yoga liability insurance.

My signature class, «Dani’s Heroic Power Flow,» is an intense strength and endurance building vinyasa. The class is a combination of ashtanga sequences, Hatha holds and breath, iyengar alignment and technique, Kundalini Pranayama and krias, and my signature abdominal and cardio workout.

I am an intensely passionate person and my passion is contagious. There is a solution to every problem and therefore, it is not acceptable to accept life if you don’t like it. Every second of every day you have the chance to change things.

The deficiency caused massive nerve damage. I saw countless doctors and sought out help from hospitals all over the world for help with no success. Both mind and body lost functionality and no help from any physical therapist was of any use. So after waiting for months for help from doctors (with no ability to take care of myself at all) I opened up a book that I refer to as the bible, B.K.S.

Iyengar took ownership of his own life and hit the yoga mat in India and went from disabled to the most famous yogi still to this day. After reading, I hit the mat. I conquered the initial frustration of going from very experienced yogi with
