Dani Teaches on Riverfront

Heartful Yoga by Dani and Open Door Fundraiser 2022

Once again, I am honored to be leading a community fundraising yoga class on the Ossining waterfront at Henry Gourdine Park for Open Door Family Medical Center and Foundation on Sept 28, 2022 9:30-11:00 am. I couldn't think of a better way for me to give back to an organization that does so much in delivering compassionate, quality health care and wellness services to all people, especially those with the least access and greatest need — regardless of their ability to pay here in the lower Hudson Valley Region.

The Summertime PAUSE

Have you felt the heat and created some simple rituals to help you slow down and shift the way you feel and go about your day-to-day in the summertime? I have.

3 Winter Yoga Workshops !

Restorative yoga is a delicious surrender into quiet, soothing postures that incorporate props, bolsters, and blankets to give us support facilitating release and relaxation that will calm the nervous system, coax away built-up tension, and dig deeper into our awareness of Self to just be present with what arises and goes through us breath by breath, moment by moment.
