About
I care greatly about my clients and fulfilling their needs to the best of my ability and have helped many along the way, so far. If there’s an area of expertise one may need, I am honest, as I know many in the field to refer out, as I have my client’s best interest in mind. I have a movement background that includes certifications in Pilates, Yoga, Barre, ELDOA and Conditioning. This aids in my ability to approach movement, both in natural and technical form, while catering to a wide variety of demographics. My clients have gained body awareness, in better knowing/learning their body’s signals and how closely one’s body is connected to mind and spirit. I would look forward to being a part of your wellness journey, whether it’s in a large group class or one on one private. Guiding you is my reward.

Dara’s service was extremely effective! I told her my problem areas, and she focused on them with unique exercises and stretches. She gave very clear instructions and made me feel comfortable trying movements I’ve never done before in my life. I’ll definitely be seeing her again. Easy 10/10 from me

The service was amazing. Before she started, I was experiencing some soreness and by the end all the problem areas felt a lot better. The massage had a natural flow and a good mix of relaxation and deep tissue. She was very courteous and professional. I highly recommend.

Dara is a excellent instructor. From assessing my strengths and weaknesses to correcting my positioning and breathing, my sessions have improved greatly. I am definitely seeing the results I was hoping to achieve. Dara is knowledgeable, patient and is very flexible with scheduling.

Booking was easy and it was the massage I needed... and more! Not only did Dara listen to my needs (from having lower back/hip pain for a year), but she also made the massage enjoyable while working on problem areas. I left relaxed and feeling better, and will be back to see Dara more!

Thank you, Amy. I’m glad to hear you felt some relief. I look forward to working with you in the future.
