I had the most transformative time with Danielle on a retreat to Italy in 2018. Each day started with an hour of beautiful awakening yoga and ended with either a relaxing yin and or meditation session.
I felt beyond refreshed & revitalised from this retreat – it gave me so much and I thank Danielle for making it so special.
I am so excited and keenly awaiting(!!) the release of another retreat with Danielle.
For those who haven’t met this beautiful yogi – she is without doubt a servant soul, here to share and inspire love, inner peace and joyous abundance with her fellow souls.
If you are joining Danielle on one of her retreats, by the time you leave for home, you will feel so blissed out, full of renewed gratitude and so healthy/ glowy, that you won’t want to leave!
I really enjoyed my first yoga retreat in Tuscany with Danielle. I feel like i have so much more energy and I am loaded with positive vibes. Danielle is a great instructor. So sweet and calming and takes time for everybody to correct the core and poses and the time just flies. It was one of the best experiences of my life. Just me connecting back to myself and nature. It was the perfect retreat. x
