"Dana is one of the most authentic & connected teachers I've ever worked with. Her dedication and heart-centered offerings are inspiring and it is clear she lives her yoga on and off the mat. I would recommend her as a teacher and mentor to anyone who is looking to deepen not only their yoga practice, but also their relationship to themselves and the world."
