While working towards a BA in Dance from the University of Minnesota, Dani was introduced to various mind-body modalities, one of which was Pilates. Wanting to dig a little deeper, she began her pilates education with the Physical Mind Institute. She completed her training through STOTT Pilates and is now a Fully Certified STOTT Pilates Instructor.  Dani has been teaching for 15 years. 

Realizing the importance of having a toolbox that contains more than basic pilates props and vocabulary, Dani is also certified through the Pink Ribbon Program as a breast cancer rehabilitation exercise specialist and through ACE as a personal trainer.

Ongoing education includes training in Healing Touch and in Yamuna Body Rolling which Dani uses to bring even more diversity to her sessions.
