Hi, I’m Dana — the heart behind Whole Heart Yoga. I’m a Registered Yoga Teacher dedicated to creating an inclusive space for students to move, breathe, and reconnect with their inner strength. My classes weave healing with empowerment, inviting you to grow through mindful movement and wholehearted alignment.

After 15 years in public librarianship, I followed a calling to teach yoga in 2024. What continues to inspire me is yoga’s ability to build resilience, clarity, and compassion — both on and off the mat. My teaching style is gentle yet energizing, nurturing yet grounding. I believe yoga meets us where we are and supports us in growing into our most grounded and vibrant selves.

Whole Heart Yoga is grounded in the belief that yoga is for real humans — for messy, beautiful, ever-changing lives. Classes are offered in an inclusive, nurturing, and trauma-informed style that honors each student’s unique path. Through intuitive movement and conscious breath, students are invited to turn inward with compassion, curiosity, and courage.

Rooted in yogic philosophy and inspired by the shifting rhythms of nature, each class offers space to slow down, feel deeply, and move with intention. There’s no need to perform or perfect — only to arrive as you are, breathe, and reconnect with the wisdom within. Together, we grow in community, cultivating resilience, belonging, and shared humanity.
