New Teacher Alert: Meet Dana Kraft!

Meet Dana Kraft!  



She is our newest instructor as Namaste Highland Park and we couldn’t be more thrilled to call her a part of our team. We first met Dana two years ago when she did a workshop at our studio, and we are honored to have her teaching in our community regularly.

While Dana earned her BFA in Musical Theatre from The University of Michigan and used to be an actress/professional singer, Dana’s journey in teaching first began in a high school classroom.  After finding herself at a crossroads in her life, she attended a yoga retreat in Costa Rica during her summer break. After her first class on the beach with Marco Rojas, she found her calling: teaching yoga. She maintains the perspective that our yoga practice parallels the obstacles faced in our daily lives, that by breathing through challenges on our mat, we can learn overcome them off the mat. She strives for her students to feel empowered, capable of working through discomfort, and motivated to grow in their practice as well as their lives. Dana’s personal practice currently includes meditation and asana, and she is eager to learn more about physical therapy to help other’s maintain a strong and healthy practice as they age.

Dana is currently teaching the following classes:
Wednesday, 4:30-6:00pm - Vinyasa: Advanced
Wednesday, 8:00-9:15pm - Vinyasa: Candlelight


Upcoming events with Dana:
August – Four Week Series: Yoga in Pregnancy
October – Yoga 108: 200 Hours of Mind, Body, & Spirit
