About Us
About the Founder
Core Beliefs
Crafting your life means finding out what works for you! We all have unique skills and talents that make us special. Embrace all of it.
A healthy body means a healthy mind. Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. Always give yourself grace as you navigate your life’s path
One size does not fit all. Find the movement practices that YOU enjoy. Do what makes you happy and gives you joy and make it regular routine.
Women should have a deep appreciation for the physical vessel that they occupy. Every body is divinely designed. Your body is yours and yours alone. Nurture it. Love it. Respect it.
Crafted Movement believes in the transformative power of movement and soul health, inspiring women to embark on a path of self-love and empowerment. We create vibrant and engaging wellness workshops, events, and classes that prioritize joy, making every step towards a healthier lifestyle an exciting adventure. Our mission is to encourage women to embrace movement, humor, and fun, leading to greater happiness and fulfillment in their lives.
Danielle, a performer and movement teacher based in the Chicagoland area, founded Crafted Movement to inspire women to embrace movement and live rich fulfilling lives. She offers dance, yoga classes, and empowerment workshops aimed at fostering self-love and confidence. In 2005, Danielle began taking belly dance classes and was immediately captivated. The confidence and body awareness that the dance provided was life-changing. She has since expanded her dance portfolio to include salsa, tango, ballet, hip-hop, and contemporary dance styles. In 2024, she completed coursework towards her 200HR YT Certification from Eb & Flow Yoga Studio in Chicago, Illinois. There she specialized in Baptiste Power Flow and Yin Yoga. In addition to yoga, she nurtured her passion for meditation and became comfortable asking herself some challenging reflective questions. Danielle aspires to leverage her diverse skill set to empower women and cultivate body positivity. She looks forward to moving with you soon!
