"Daniel truly has a gift with ballet instruction. He understands the mechanics of the body in a way I haven’t seen before.

Between his years as a professional dancer himself, his instruction of dance, and his foray into gyrotonics, he really brings a comprehensive, practical approach to a physically demanding art form. Daniel really thinks about the transitions from one body position to the next in a way that will allow people to dance for years to come.

I watched Daniel train both professional dancers and adult dancers. Both had incredibly successful outcomes for wha the student was after, not Daniel.

He loves all things, movement and dance and music. It’s the lens in which he sees the world through and it’s beautiful to be apart of. In a world that is over leveraged on analytics and algorithms and data, it is a respite to see the world through this lens. "
