A graduate of New York University in Mass Media and Global Communications studies, certified initially through the International Sports Medicine Association (ISMA/AAAI), Tai Chi Healthways, and member of the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT), Danielle has been involved in yoga, martial arts, and media for nearly sixteen years. 

Having taught yoga classes for the elderly, children, athletes, and for those with special concerns (i.e. Fibromyalgia, Multiple Sclerosis, ADD/ADHD, anxiety and depression, etc.), she has adapted classes to students with varying needs, age 3 to 93. She's also had the rare opportunity to meet and study with extraordinary teachers of Taoist, Kundalini, Kripalu, Ashtanga, Hatha, Vinyasa, Iyengar, Isha, Trikona and Integral yoga, as well as masters of Bagua, Tai Chi and meditation.

Currently, Danielle is Metromix's "traveling food girl" writing restaurant reviews, and her Food 101 & Interview with the Chef columns, a yoga journalist for the Examiner, and a freelance writer and web content developer.  Author of the upcoming Acting Out Yoga series and contributing author for Yoga in America, she also teaches hybrid journaling and movement arts workshops throughout the Bradenton and Sarasota area.
