Dancing through Grief

"I came into this experience feeling sad and flat after the passing of a dear friend.

Since I couldn’t attend her memorial, I had no real way to process a goodbye. Dancing through it was incredibly therapeutic — it allowed me to honor her in a deeply personal way.

While I love group JourneyDance™ classes, this private session gave me the space to truly mourn and move through my grief in a way that was deeply healing.

I can see how others navigating different life experiences could benefit from a private session as well.

The playlist was perfect, and I felt completely supported, heard, and held throughout.

Danielle has a true gift.

This experience gave me the dedicated time and space I wouldn’t have taken on my own.

I would absolutely recommend a private JourneyDance™ with Danielle to others looking for a safe and transformative way to move through emotions." — J.D.

Why Somatic Movement & Dance Are So Powerful

This isn’t just about dancing — it’s about moving your emotions, releasing what no longer serves you, and reclaiming your power in a way that talk therapy alone can’t reach.

  • Trauma & Emotions Live in the Body – When we experience pain, grief, or stress, our bodies store those experiences. Somatic movement allows your body to safely process and release what’s been held — helping you feel lighter, freer, and more connected to yourself.

  • Movement Bypasses the Mind – Unlike traditional therapy, which focuses on thoughts and words, dance opens a direct path to your body’s wisdom. Through movement, you access deeper truths, clarity, and healing from within.

  • Embodiment Creates Lasting Change – When you feel and move through your emotions — rather than just talking about them — you begin to rewire old patterns, cultivate resilience, and create space for true transformation.

Dancing Into a New Chapter

"WOW — what an incredible experience!

A customized JourneyDance™ felt like such a treat— not only dancing to my favorite songs but also receiving personalized messaging based on my initial conversation with Danielle.

Hearing those words reflected back to me in such an inspiring way was truly magical.

I felt completely transformed as I moved and shifted stuck energy, creating space for new love, light, possibilities, and adventures.  

I was amazed by how seamlessly my favorite songs were woven into the experience and how deeply inspired I felt afterward.

Compared to group classes, this private session felt more personal, curated, and special — I was able to go inward in a way that allowed me to fully embody the healing.

It was a deeply supportive, held space, and I felt a profound shift afterward.  

This experience helped me tune into myself, rewrite my story, and move into a new chapter with clarity and intention.

It brought up emotions I needed to release and reminded me of the love and support from those I’ve lost.

Danielle, your energy is truly magical — it shines through the screen and facilitates deep healing and growth.

I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone looking for a transformative and deeply personal somatic experience!" — T.A.

Dancing to Find Love & Partnership

"I came into this experience feeling both nervous and excited, but by the end, I felt completely heard, validated, energized, and empowered.

I left feeling emotionally lighter, like a weight had been lifted.  

I was surprised by how easily I was able to keep up and how deeply Danielle listened to my wants and needs before the session.

The private JourneyDance™ experience was so much more meaningful than a group class — I loved hearing my name throughout the journey, which made it feel truly personal.

Without the worry of being watched, I was able to go deeper into my movement and fully embrace the experience.  

The playlist was incredible, and I loved receiving it afterward so I could continue integrating the music into my life.

I felt so supported, held, and seen the entire time.

This 1:1 somatic journey was such a fun, healing, and rewarding experience — I truly believe everyone should try it at least once!  

Danielle, your gifts are so beautiful, and I’m beyond grateful for this experience!" — S.D.

 
 

Welcome

I’m Danielle – your somatic guide, JourneyDance™ Facilitator, and trauma-informed coach.


My mission is to help women reconnect with their bodies, release what no longer serves them, and step into their power through movement medicine and embodiment practices.

For years, I carried the weight of childhood trauma and emotional wounds, not realizing how deeply they influenced my thoughts, behaviors, relationships — even my business.

I thought it was just stress, anxiety, or overwhelm from life… but I wasn’t connecting the dots to my past.

Therapy helped me understand my story, but I still felt something was missing — a deeper way to release what was stored in my body.

That’s when I discovered somatic healing and conscious movement… and everything changed.

Movement Became My Medicine

When I found JourneyDance™, I had life-altering experiences — moments that cracked me open, moved me to tears, and allowed me to process emotions in a way I never had before.

Through this practice, I:

  • Broke free from limiting patterns that had held me back for years.

  • Found my voice and confidence, reconnecting with my true self.

  • Released trauma that talk therapy alone couldn’t reach.

  • Realized that healing isn’t about fixing ourselves — it’s about activating what’s already within us.

And now, I help other women do the same.

You Are Your Own Healer — I’m Just Here to Help Activate What’s Already Inside You

The women who experience this work tell me the same thing — it’s life-changing.

And in a 1:1 session, it becomes even more powerful.

This isn’t about performing, looking a certain way, or following steps.

It’s about feeling, expressing, and coming home to yourself — in a space that’s fully focused on you, your emotions, and your healing journey.

This somatic movement medicine is like therapy on the dance floor — but in a private session, the experience is fully customized to you.

You set the intention.

You move through what’s ready to be released.

You receive the support, guidance, and reflection that’s meant just for you.

It’s healing. It’s empowering. It’s deeply personal.

And the only way to truly understand it… is to experience it.

So let’s dance. Let’s move. Let’s heal.

Because this embodied journey changed my life — and it might just change yours too. 💫

Dancing to Slay the Ego

"I entered this experience feeling slightly down yet sustaining, navigating a lot of change with some rough moments.

But by the end, I felt completely empowered, seen, and ready to take on the world — understanding my ego rather than being overpowered by it.  

What surprised me most was that, despite knowing and trusting Danielle deeply, I actually felt a little nervous at first.

The experience was so specific and personal to me that it made me a little self-conscious in a way I didn’t expect.

But that’s what made it so powerful — this wasn’t just a dance, it was a deep reflection of myself, guided with so much care and intention.  

Compared to a group class, this private JourneyDance™ took me much deeper.

The words felt like they were spoken *to* me and *for* me, allowing me to fully focus on my personal journey of slaying my ego.

It was incredibly meaningful, and I could see myself clearly through the reflection Danielle offered back to me.

If someone is looking to work through something specific in their life, this is the perfect way to dance it out with Danielle as their guide.  

The playlist was incredible, and the whole experience felt deeply supported, like I was being held in time and space.

In a 1:1 setting, Danielle’s ability to listen is amplified — she heard me louder than I heard myself, and that was part of what made it so special.

You always feel her care in a group setting, but this was something entirely different — it was deeply personal, deeply connected, and deeply healing.  

I would absolutely recommend this 1:1 somatic experience.

It’s the perfect complement to a group class — an opportunity to go even deeper, to move through stuck energy, and to be vulnerable in a safe and private space.

Having Danielle’s undivided attention allows for a completely transformative experience.  

For me, incorporating plant medicine beforehand made this journey even more euphoric, something I don’t typically experience in a group setting.

If that’s something someone is open to, I think it could further enhance the experience in a really powerful way.  

Danielle, you have an incredible gift, and this was truly something special." — J.B.

  • What is JourneyDance™?

    JourneyDance™, created by Toni Bergins, is a transformational movement practice that blends freestyle and structured somatic movement to help you release stored emotions, shift stagnant energy, and reconnect with your body’s wisdom.

    This isn’t about learning steps or looking a certain way — it’s about feeling.

    It’s a supportive space where you can move without judgment, expectation, or inhibition, allowing emotions to flow and your body to express what words cannot.

    No choreography. No pressure.

    Just deep healing and self-expression.

  • What is Somatic Movement?

    The word "somatic" comes from the Latin word soma, meaning body.

    Somatic movement is a body-based healing modality that allows us to access and process emotions that have been stored in our muscles, fascia, and nervous system.

    We often ask:

    What does my body need right now?

    – What sensations are present?

    — What is ready to be expressed, released, or transformed?

    By moving intentionally and intuitively, we bypass the overthinking mind and access deep healing that talk therapy alone cannot reach.

  • Why is Dance a Healing Modality?

    Dancing is one of the oldest and most natural forms of healing.

    It’s been used across cultures for centuries to release energy, process emotions, and cultivate joy.

    When we dance, we can…

    — Release stuck emotions stored in the body

    — Reduce stress and release endorphins (natural ‘feel-good’ chemicals)

    — Regulate the nervous system and find clarity

    — Foster self-expression, self-empowerment, and deep emotional release

Dancing Into Freedom & Liberation

“I walked away from this experience feeling a strong sense of lightness — like the metaphorical weight I had been carrying had literally lifted.

I felt so much — waves of emotions, both good and bad — but that’s exactly what I wanted: to feel. To move through it. To release.

I left feeling determined to heal, and my body felt freakin’ great!  

What surprised me the most was how deeply personal it felt.

It wasn’t just a class — it was made for me, tailored to exactly what I needed in that moment.

I love the community aspect of group classes, but this 1:1 experience helped me dig deeper because it was designed around my healing journey.

The combination of visualizations and movement was powerful — I was able to fully throw myself into my emotions through my body, in a way I’ve never felt before.  

And can we talk about the playlist?!

Girrrrrrrl, the energy was on point! It brought out so many emotions — heat, comfort, release.

The way Danielle curated the songs based on my intake form was incredible. Every track flowed perfectly, and the final song — the one I had mentioned — was the perfect cherry on top.  

Would I recommend this experience? Absolutely.

Whether you’re on a healing path or just need time to reconnect with yourself, this session creates a supportive space where you can truly own your experience — whether that’s jamming, healing, feeling, or all of the above.

It’s meditative, powerful, and honestly, it’s healing in ways I haven’t felt before. 

Danielle is warm, intuitive, and it’s clear she not only knows what she’s doing — she genuinely cares.

I have nothing but gratitude and reverence for this experience. It was everything I needed and more” — S.S.

When in doubt... dance it out!

You’ve got questions. I’ve got answers.

If you still have a question, please feel free to reach out and ask me anything.

  • Absolutely! No dance experience is needed.

    This is about moving in a way that feels right for you, not about choreography or performance.

  • Yes, you can!

    While your experience will be different, you’ll still enjoy yourself and go on an incredible journey working with parts of your body that are easier to move.

  • An eclectic mix is the best way to describe it — think music that makes you move and feel.

    Plus, I ask you to share some of your favorite songs, which I weave into the playlist.

  • No need, and ideally, you would not. Dancing in socks or barefoot is best.

    That said, if you feel like you need them on, please wear them. You can always take them off.

  • It’s entirely up to you, but ideally, yes (given it’s just the 2 of us).

    Typically, I “pin” myself, which means you’ll see me large on your screen (vs. in gallery mode).

    I mostly dance with my eyes closed, and your Zoom square is small, making it hard for me to see you anyway.

    All this to say, I will not be watching or observing you.

  • That’s completely normal!

    Movement can bring up deep emotions, and this session is a supportive, judgment-free space to allow them to surface and be released.

  • Yes! You’ll receive the full replay, including the guided meditation, so you can return to the experience whenever you need.

    Plus, you get the playlist.

  • While it’s not a replacement for therapy, this is a deeply therapeutic experience that complements talk therapy beautifully.

    It allows you to process emotions somatically — through movement rather than just words.

  • Yes. I believe everyone should have access to healing modalities.
