Her technique of combining the most enjoyable and effective elements of shiatsu massage supports deep relaxation and freedom in the mind and body.

Therefore, she design tailored programs in order to harmonise her customer’s health fulfilling each individual’s needs. Danka works with a mindful and compassionate presence which can facilitate the innate healing ability withint he recipient. It can be so gentle and subtle, yet powerfully dynamic. I love experiencing how yoga serves people at all stages of life. I’m always blown away by how beautifully we can all practice together. My intention to teach yoga and running yoga retreats is to provide a space that feels safe & nurturing for all students
No matter what level of practice you are at, you can always enjoy the company of others. It is so special having a place where we can all let down our guard, open our hearts, laugh, cry and feel whatever we are going through in life and our bodies. Physical yoga is just one branch of the larger tree of Yoga. I think it is important to share and explore the other facets.This is an ancient system of knowledge on how to carry ourselves in life. Western yoga tends to only focus on the physical postures, whereas the roots of yoga teach that the body is just the gateway to the more subtle layers of self. I can only teach what I practice and experience and my students are my greatest teachers! OM

A Precious Pause🙏

I can’t believe it’s been a week since we finished our retreat in Porto.
What may look like movement in this video… is actually a pause for me.
Running a retreat on my own is a full dance — between teaching, creating meaningful experiences for my precious students, holding space for their needs, and managing all the little details that no one sees.

This time of practice is my anchor, my diamond.
A moment to stop thinking, solving, or planning — and simply be.

And yes, being doesn’t always mean sitting in silence.
It can happen in movement, in flow — especially when guided through beautiful sequences like those in the Vinyasakrama yoga system.

Practicing in the serene, heart-filled space of .pt reminded me once more how sacred it is to pause… and how grateful I am that I keep showing up for myself, year after year.

So today, I say: thank you to myself. 🙏
And I invite you to do the same —
✨Pause for a moment,
✨thank yourself for not giving up,
✨for showing up, again and again.

What is that one thing you never give up doing for yourself?

Rooted, soft, yet steady.
Gentle, grounded, and strong.
Flowing, present, yet unwavering 🙏🫶

I just completed “Gentle Warrior’s Way” — a 3-day journey with the inspiring Kindy Kaur dedicated to women’s empowerment, hormonal balance, and reconnecting with our organic feminine strength. 🌸

Through Shiatsu, Shin Tai, TCM, Qigong, and Yoga, we explored how to ground ourselves, tap into presence, and support others to return to their authentic being with full awareness
After nearly 20 years of yoga + shiatsu, this course felt like everything clicked together. Like coming home to myself again. 💛
Grateful for the tools, the safe space, and the reminder of how powerful gentle presence truly is.

I feel recharged, inspired, and empowered — ready for the next chapter of my journey with Shin Tai.

Thank you Kindy .kaur.14 , for embodying the true essence of a gentle warrior. 💛 And thank you Fernanda, for bringing this work to Lisbon — to the country I feel called to.

There is much more to come and I’m so much looking forward to share all this inner knowledge in many ways with YOU ALL.

If you are looking for tapping into your authentic power, creativity and feeling of safety I’m happy to hold and to guide you on your journey 🙏❣️

Travel Yoga Class – Recording Available Now

When we travel, our routines change—we walk more, carry bags, sleep in new beds, and often don’t have our usual space or props. This sequence was created exactly for that:

- Core stability to keep you strong
- Shoulder mobility to release travel tension
- A flow that works in small spaces, no props needed
- Perfect for travelers or anyone wanting a lighter, but deeply stabilizing practice

I recorded this class last Wednesday morning from my room in Portugal 💛. Now you can have it too—anytime, anywhere.

This unique recording is yours to keep forever. A one-time investment gives you a sequence designed to support your body while traveling — grounding, stabilizing, and energizing wherever you are.”

👉 If you’d like it, just comment “I want this sequence” or DM me, and I’ll send you the details.

I’ve just arrived in Portugal 🇵🇹 — early, to adjust to the vibes, to connect with this land, and today I made a spontaneous trip to Sintra 🌿✨.
This time is for me to feel my body, reflect, and ground before my Shiatsu course and yoga retreat in Porto.
💫 Tomorrow at midnight I’m closing the doors for the retreat.
There is just 1 spot left — available at a special price.
If you’ve been feeling depleted, overwhelmed, or longing for real change — this is your invitation.
To reconnect. To recharge. To come home to yourself.
I’ll be here to guide you. 💛
