Meet Our Ft. Lauderdale Instructors

Danielle Petrie
Yoga Instructor, Fort Lauderdale
Danielle was born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. From the time she was a very small child, she was always artistic and became very involved in dance.

The movements were reminiscent of her dancing background, however on a much deeper level.
Having grown up in a household with plenty of adversity and the disease of addiction, she sought a totally different approach. She found her “home” in yoga and followed-up with a 200-hour Sivananda yoga training and 500-hour Hatha yoga training. From there, she started teaching right away and has taught all over the South Florida area for over twenty years.
In Danielle’s words:
“Yoga means so much to me on so many different levels. I have taught yoga for all types of people, shapes and sizes. From pre-schoolers to the elderly, to professional athletes. I have also created a yoga program for women with post traumatic stress disorder in a psychiatric hospital.
I see yoga transform and change lives everyday. It heals to the soul.
As a yoga teacher, I consider myself to be real and genuine. I believe my classes reflect this too. People feel when you do things from your heart. And my heart is my guide, my gift to share with others, and be the best role model to my students and my two fantastic children.
Needless to say, I am honored to do what I do and so excited to be leading the SOL Yoga Fort Lauderdale team!”
In Danielle’s hands, students can expect to be challenged, uplifted and energized. Enjoy upbeat music and be prepared to use the entire body – heart and soul!

Throughout your movements and postures, you will always be reminded of your breath while Kim encourages you to go outside your comfort zone. You will move your body in a way that will strengthen your stabilizers and bring awareness to the foundations of every transition and posture.
Outside teaching Yoga and HIIT classes, Kim is working with private clients, self education and practice, acro yoga – and basically anything outdoors and/or hanging with her furry four-legged child.
“Learning and growing will always be on-going for me. Spreading the knowledge I have learned and helping as many people as possible means so much. Students are incredible teachers, and I value every single individual that I am given the opportunity to guide.”
