MORNING YOGA WITH DANIELE STRAWMYRE
Daniele Strawmyre is the founder and owner of Ready Set Grow, a Portland based company specializing in movement education, art & wellness for families. She teaches a variety of classes, from dance and yoga to classic Pilates mat, various circuit training and fitness for adults; and develops and teaches dance and theater programs for children, including those with sensory and learning differences at her studio in NE PDX and various locations around the country.
Daniele’s passion is in empowering women…to move their bodies with intention, to improve their health and body image, to get stronger, more flexible, and more confident without all of the self-judgment and bullshit societal standards of beauty that tell women and mothers that they need to be perpetually prepubescent, void of all traces of motherhood, pregnancy, aging, life, WISDOM. In her classes we celebrate the now, acknowledging and honoring where we’ve been, while embracing the beautiful, complex, and well-rounded (and sometimes rounder) people we have become, knowing that each and every time you step onto a yoga mat, or into your shoes, or on the ground, you can feel different, and that’s ok. It’s more than ok; it’s great. BE HERE NOW.
Originally hailing from Philadelphia, PA, she was the director of the dance company, readySetGO, and performed locally, nationally, and internationally, in addition to teaching various forms of fitness and Somatics. She earned a degree in Dance and Choreography from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, PA. As a professional choreographer, dancer and movement educator of over 25 years, with a focus on prenatal and postpartum health for the last 7 years, Daniele helps people to “increase their body intelligence” so they can feel confident and strong (and injury-free) while doing “all the things”!
