Dani Wasson

Dani Wasson, known to her students as Vani, is a yoga therapist, Ayurveda practitioner, life and wellness coach, author, and entrepreneur with more than 20 years of experience bridging ancient healing traditions and modern life. She understands what it means to create something from the ground up while healing along the way. What started as a 1,000-square-foot studio in downtown Fort Wayne has grown into Pranayoga Institute, a thriving healing arts sanctuary and globally accredited yoga therapy institute that has touched thousands of lives worldwide. Over the past two decades, Dani has shown that authentic yoga and Ayurveda can be both deeply sacred and sustainable, as a practice and as a business. She created the Sacred Business Retreat from lived experience, to support women entrepreneurs, yoga teachers, and wellness coaches. She knows the calling, the courage it takes to bring a vision to life, and the freedom that follows when you do. This retreat is her life’s work, distilled into five days in Costa Rica.
