Danielle Komar

Certified & Registered Yoga Teacher

I stumbled upon my yoga mat over nine years ago in college, when I was looking for a counter to all of the running and cardio I was doing.

What started as a physical and aesthetic practice quickly made me learn that in yoga, that is only the beginning. As I continued my practice through college and after college to find the breath and pause during the busyness of my job and life, I kept finding that I wanted to dig a little deeper. I began attending several yoga classes a week at various studios, including Inner Bliss Yoga Studio which became my home base. IBY creates such a welcome and safe space that inspired me in ways that moved me off the mat and into my daily life and kept me coming back for more.

After much contemplation, I took the leap and received my 200-hr Yoga Teacher Training Certification at Flow Yoga Studio in Mayfield, Ohio in May 2021 (best decision I ever made by the way).

I am honored to be joining the incredible and inspiring team here at IBY, and look forward to sharing my passion and love for this practice with others!

  • Why Yoga? Yoga is my calm, and my peace. It makes me my best self, and reminds us of the most important tool we all have- the breath.

  • What makes you come alive? Coming to my yoga mat. Laughing and enjoying my family and friends. Long hikes in the park with my husband & dog.

  • Life Before Yoga? Rushed, worried and never in the moment.

  • Life After Yoga? Joyful and Present.

  • Secret Pleasure? Curling up on the couch watching Real Housewives with a bowl of homemade popcorn & a warm blanket. Also any time with my husband and our German Shepherd, Hanz, relaxing at home.

  • What impact do you want to leave on the world? Oof... such a good question. That a warm smile and a listening ear can go a very long way.
