8 reviews for Prasadana Yoga & Massage
I just had a private yoga therapy session with Dana Greenbaum of Prasadana and recommend her VERY highly. My session with Dana was the best yoga experience I have ever had. I have many areas in my body where there is tightness, old injuries and pain. She helped me find a place of comfort in every pose we did. I left in better alignment and felt stronger and inspired to get back into a yoga practice that I had tossed aside because of pain.
Dana is grounded, intuitive, peaceful and full of heart. She guides you through your session with ease and non-judgment and she has an inspiring level of knowledge about the body and yoga.
just had my very first prenatal massage with dana...at 27 weeks, she really knew how to work my entire body with perfect intensity and calm energy. i will definitely be going back to see her!
I joined Dana's pre-natal yoga class at Yoga Tree Valencia when I was newly pregnant, but too tired and nervous to keep up my regular anusara practice. Her class has helped me with general well-being, gotten me sleeping better and generally holding myself comfortably as my belly grows.
For a special treat I wish I could indulge more often, I've gone to Dana for a couple of pre-natal massages. Awesome. She's strong and soothing and able to handle whatever's bugging me- whether it's related to my pregnancy or not. I'm looking forward to continuing post-natal, too- I know she'll be able to help with the restoration process in a calming, comfortable way, too!
I practice yoga with Dana - started just as I became pregnant and continued all the way to the 38th week! She comes to my house for private sessions most of the time, but I have been to her home studio a few times as well. It is private and quiet, and there is a bathroom you can use to change or do whatever you need! Dana is such an encouraging teacher, and her experience as a massage therapist really adds to the yoga practice. She was nice enough to massage my ankles when they were swollen from being preggers! It was really worth it to have a private practice instead of going to a yoga class. I need the personal attention and encouragement 'cause even though yoga is good for body and mind, it's hard to do sometimes!!
Dana was my prenatal yoga instructor. After coming from a busy day at work.,she made this wonderful space for me to reflect that I was carrying a child and to help strenghthen my body for labor. It's amazing how you go through the day so busy not really being able to tune into your body let alone the baby. So that what was wonderful. I was able to relax in her class and not stress about positions or being unconfortable as she is a thoughtful and patient teacher. She is very clear and creates a great rhythm in her practice.
I began experiencing some upper back pain over the months of my pregnancy and decided to get a massage. I was lucky because my sister wanted to treat me to a pre and post partum massage. I found out Dana gave prenatal massage as well. I felt safe getting a massage from her since she understood a pregnant woman's body quite well. It was fantastic. I had two massages prior to labor. Then a few weeks after I gave birth she gave me my post partum massage. It was wonderful as I was using my back, rib and arm muscles in whole new ways as a new mom and I was sore all over! She's very gentle and nurturing yet strong. The studio is very quiet and calming as well.
I attended Dana's prenatal yoga classes through most of my pregnancy and then massages for the last couple of months. Between the yoga and the massages Dana made my pregnancy very comfortable and I went into labor strong and calm.
In yoga class Dana has the ability to walk a beginner such as myself through all of the poses, but also make it challenging for those that are more experienced. Each pose had several options so each person could choose how hard they wanted to work or how far they wanted to push themselves that day.
The massages were just wonderful. At 8 and half months pregnant I can't tell you how good it felt to have my back worked on, my arms relaxed, my legs soothed, my whole body cared for. I would leave her studio glowing from head to toe. I am looking forward to my first post-partum massage (just need to work it into my baby's schedule!).
I highly recommend Dana! She has the magic touch and is a caring and intuitive healer.
I met Dana about a year ago in the "womb room" at Yoga Tree Valencia when I was a few months pregnant. Her wonderful twice-weekly prenatal yoga classes became my anchor, and I attended regularly up through 40 weeks. When I was a few days overdue, Dana gave me my first prenatal massage, and I left her gorgeous little studio and blissfully strong hands ready to birth my baby (and wishing I'd been getting prenatal massage all along). Even though I'm no longer a prenatal client, Dana has remained a part of my life. I treated myself to several of her heavenly postpartum massages, and I attend her All Levels Anusara class at Yoga Kula at least once a week. Dana is an insightful, wise, and extremely skilled teacher and therapist. I've been practicing ashtanga and vinyasa flow classes for many years (and still do), but Dana's instruction is taking my practice to a new level: my alignment and awareness have improved, and I find myself moving through my life off the mat with a renewed sense of calm and strength.
