Danit’s class is extraordinary. Her encyclopedic knowledge, calming voice, and ability to adjust the practice to the participants create a yoga sanctuary.

DANIT….where do I begin? Danit has made me fall in love with yoga again. I feel refreshed, flexible, strong and ready to take on the day after her class. when I recently was injured and was recovering from surgery, it was this class that brought me back to myself. I am so grateful to Danit and to her teaching methods for empowering me.

If you're looking for a reprieve from a hectic day, a means to relax yet energize, plus a way to take your practice to a deeper level, you can't do better than to take a yoga class with Danit. Amazingly, each and every class is slightly different, so you are never bored, and the hour just flies by! Just don't take my spot!

Yoga by Danit offers a rare combination of serenity, grounding and connection in an otherwise hurried world. Danit is an expert in her craft. She thoughtfully supports all her students and invites us to explore our edge of growth as yogis and cultivate our own practices in an authentic way. Having found myself at many yoga studios throughout the history of my practice, I come back to Yoga by Danit with utter devotion. It is no surprise that she has such a dedicated followership. Her classes and the energy in the studio are unmatched in Greenwich and beyond.

"When you take a class with Danit, you walk in one person, and out another."
Although I had tried a few yoga classes over the years, none of them appealed to me. Danit's classes are different. The combination of her attention to detail - you know she cares if you are doing things correctly for your body, with a true sense that you are in the studio for yourself and there is no reason to think about how you (and your yoga) appear to others, draws me back whenever I have the time.

There are so many things that make the YBD studio special. First, Danit and Jonathan know and care about every student who walks through the door and the result is a genuine and supportive community where every class feels like a visit with friends. Beyond that, Danit’s classes are perfectly paced and balanced to leave you feeling rejuvenated instead of depleted. She approaches yoga and meditation with a light and encouraging hand, so that all levels of practitioners are certain to leave having had a wonderful experience. I’ve been practicing yoga for over 20 years and I can honestly say that Yoga by Danit is the only studio that I know I will leave feeling better every single time.

I’m addicted to Danit! She is an amazing instructor who is attentive, upbeat and committed to each student in her class. Her adjustments are incredible and the flow of her class is rhythmic yet unique. Flowing through the poses under her expertise, combined with her great music choices, make it enjoyable and challenging without ever feeling “over-challenged.” It’s as if she reads her students on any given day and delivers the perfect class everytime. After class I always feel both energized yet blissfully calm. Danit offers the
best of yoga!

Why Small Businesses Matter in Greenwich: Yoga By Danit
As a student of yoga for more then a decade now, I've always been inherently drawn to the practice yet only found time off and on for it. Until I took class with Danit, she drew me much deeper into the practice with her knowledge of the body and her ever present spirituality. Taking Danit's class is always a rewarding experience. Walking into her class you always know you are about to experience everything you want in a yoga class, I always walk out feeling better then I did walking in. Truly one of the finest teachers I have ever taken a class with. A gem in our yoga community.

Danit has a special gift! She is so in touch with her students and creates an environment where you can relax and work at your own pace no matter the class. You feel transformed when you leave.

I have been doing yoga off and on for the past 20 years. I can tell you from my experience that Danit is a very special teacher. Her knowledge and passion for yoga shines through in each class that teaches. I always feel great after her classes. I have learned so much from her. I can’t thank her enough. She’s simply the best.
Jamie Davitt
I am not a person that does Yoga often. However, I find myself making the time for Danit's class when I want to treat myself to something special. Her classes are engaging, challenging, and soothing all at once. One of the best parts about her classes are her adjustments as they are gentle but somehow she always gets you deeper into the poses. I find myself hoping she will come to adjust me!

Yoga by Danit’s Video On Demand Library is a life saver. I’ve been practicing yoga for 20 years, 10 of those with Danit, but when the pandemic shut down the studio, I was still able to continue my daily practice through her recorded classes As a traveling athlete, I can access Danit’s expert teaching anywhere, anytime. The library holds a variety of classes, at different levels, all of which I sample, including Yin and Restore. I would highly recommend subscribing to Yoga by Danit’s Video On Demand Library, especially for those with schedules that prevent attendance in studio classes.

I’ve been practicing yoga for 15 years and for the past three I’ve practiced exclusively at Yoga by Danit, where the classes are perfectly balanced to open each student’s body and mind. Danit truly cares about all her students and works hard to ensure everyone is challenged at a level that’s appropriate for them. Without exception, I’ve enjoyed every class I’ve taken and have never left without feeling fulfilled by the practice.
One of the nicest aspects of Yoga by Danit is the community. The studio is a safe space, where there’s no judgement. Everyone is welcome and accepted, no matter their size, shape, age or level of experience.
When I come home after yoga and my husband asks how the class was, my answer is always the same, “Great!”

Danit has created more than just a place to do yoga in her new studio. She has filled the space with her motivational energy and focused calm, attracting a community of people that want to feel better in both body and mind. As an equestrian showjumper, I need balance, core strength, and a calm mind over the adrenaline pumping through my body during competition. Danit has helped me improve all of these things through my physical asana practice and meditation. Experienced yogis as well as beginners will find a safe and supportive environment in which to practice at Yoga By Danit.

I cannot adequately tell you how helpful and healing I have found your classes on many levels (not just physical). I find that much of the benefit of any class comes from each teacher’s individual approach, personality and teaching style - thank you for being you!
