Katya Danko

Hi fellow Yogi’s! I’m Katya Danko and am extremely passionate about all things related to movement, specifically yoga and dance. After practicing yoga for 10 years, I finally gained my 200-hour Yoga Teaching Certificate from Three Sisters Yoga, NYC. As a trained dancer (18 years) and professional choreographer (8 years), I found yoga as a source of movement that was all my own. It enhanced the experience and connection to not only the way I move on the dance floor, but also the way I move through life. During my classes I aim to guide students to a similar experience that is all their own. Using my dance and choreography background, I implement creative and innovative sequencing and color transitional movement with dance and visualization. I believe that through movement we can explore our true selves, and connect to our bodies on the deepest level, reigniting our inner light. By building up students’ knowledge and strength in the foundations of the vinyasa flow, they have the freedom to explore their own experiences and postures. By building each posture from the ground up, step by step, students can grow exponentially in strength and agility. Giving students the space to find grace and experimentation within each asana allows for their own creativity to heighten their body awareness. Throughout repetition, clear direction and expression it is important to me to create a safe and playful space for students of all levels to feel secure, taken care of, and to own their practice day-to-day, class-to-class.
