Danielle’s lifelong interest in movement practices led her to pursue a career in massage therapy, graduating from a two-year long apprenticeship in January 2024. Building on her training in Myofascial Release Technique, Trigger Point, and a variety of neuromuscular patterning techniques.
After concluding a 13-year career in professional figure skating in 2020, Danielle turned her attention to anatomy, physiology, and all things functional movement. Her personal training work, yoga training, and years of teaching ice skating gave her a deep appreciation for personalized bodywork. Adapting an athlete’s mindset to massage, she hopes to connect with folks at all stages of movement as well as support sports enthusiasts at a variety of levels.
During her down time, Danielle enjoys moving her body, connecting with her community, and mulling over the intricacies of the human experience.
