Danielle deGregory Sweet is the owner of and lead instructor at Jai Dee Yoga & Wellness in Seminole Heights. Sharing the benefits of yoga is a passion of Danielle's, so when the opportunity to buy Jai Dee Yoga & Wellness knocked in the middle of a global pandemic, she answered the door. Making yoga accessible to people at all levels is at the heart of her practice. By connecting the breath to the body through asana, Danielle fosters a space where every level of student can explore their mind, body, and spirit in the present moment. Danielle found yoga in her late twenties by attending classes at a local gym and was hooked. Before long she attended her first studio class and never went back to the gym again. She credits her yoga practice for allowing her to be a successful public high school teacher for two decades before becoming a studio owner. In 2010, Danielle completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training at The Lotus Pond in Tampa, FL in 2010 and has been teaching regularly since January 2011. Beginning in June of 2017, Danielle began her Advanced Yoga Teacher Training at the Carolina Yoga Company in Carrboro, N.C. She is looking forward to completing her 500-hour yoga certification over the next five years.
