I found yoga in 1990 when I started delivering my bakery’s organic breads to the yoga studio in my hometown. I began taking classes there and have been practicing ever since.
I’m a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) and Registered Prenatal Yoga Teacher (RPYT) with Yoga Alliance with over 500 hours of training. I’ve has completed training in: 200 hours of Vinyasa Yoga, 200 hours of Hot26 Yoga (Bikram Method, Original Hot Yoga), and 85 hours of Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga. I’ve completed additional training in Mat Pilates, Hot Pilates, Sculpt, Barre and Kids Yoga. I have recently relocated to Springfield with my family after living in Nashville, TN and teaching yoga at Sumits Yoga of Nashville and Hot Yoga East Nashville. While in Nashville, I also taught classes at Magpies for Girls Shoppe, Neighborhood Barre, and Blooma Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga.
Originally from Springfield, I was the owner of Dana’s Bread/Café Andiamo in downtown Springfield. I am passionate about striving for peak performance where strength meets flexibility and helping others connect mind, body and spirit to achieve their goals.
