She is awesome!!!
I visited her a few weeks ago because of my back pain and my back pain gone by then. I had shiatsu massage and yoga class. She knows what she is doing so if you are thinking about booking the class or massage with her DO IT it’s worth it I promise 
Ashtanga yoga is truhly a self practice, but today this woman moved me much farther I ever imagined I could go. Not only through physical adjustments but also verbal advice….in Urdhva dhanurasana I screamed out of joywhen Danka had given me a helpful hints and my sacrum felt pain-free. I am
grateful for this Mysore practice with Danka Sky.
Don’t ignore the pain in your back, do something about it. I did and I have to say what a great job Danka does. Day after the massage I felt like a new person.
The whole experience was positive and Danka is very professional and knowledgeable. fully recommend.
I had one session with Danka and I can only say: She knows very well what she is doing. Incredible sensitivity for the human body and skill of treatment. Very helpful.
I‘m very happy and thankful Danka found her way to Leipzig. She is a great Ashtanga teacher with helpful and profound insights in her Mysore classes or Yoga workshops.
I can also highly recommend her Shiatsu Massages which helped me a lot with some pain issues. Her advices and yoga adjustments helped me a lot during difficult times. Truly blessed, thank you lovely Danka
I ve had 2 shiatsu treatments with Danka and it was amazing. Personally I try to do massages of all kinds wherever I can, but this one was just stunning. Working on a body and mental level this opened a lot inside. Thank you soooo much, cannot be topped or more professional than that. Looking forward to seeing you again somewhere sometime. Namaste, Chris
Danka is an amazing beautiful soul who was recommended to me by a yoga teacher here in Sydney as I had torn tendons and chronic inflammation in my shoulder which I was recovering from. I came to Danka for 10 sessions of lymphatic drainage and shiatsu massage. The results have been incredible with literally no pain in my shoulder and I have regained full movement after only 2 weeks of treatment. I can only say how grateful I am to have met you and thank you so much for helping me.
