Meet Donna Howald

Donna’s story began when she opened her first studio in 2007. Originally intent on helping clients find relief from their physical aches and pains with Pilates, her journey eventually evolved into learning and educating others about consciousness. Over the past seventeen years she has become certified in BASI Pilates, MELT, Franklin Method, and The Anat Baniel Method (or NeuroMovement); proudly introducing her clients to many modalities of movement.

Today Donna helps people experience healing not only through movement, but through acceptance, love and nurture; helping them get healthy by taking responsibility for where they are in that process. She loves helping her clients maintain or regain vitality using mindful movement methods, but her practice is continually evolving and now includes making changes to not just the body but to the mind as well.

Over the years Donna found herself intrigued by people who use their minds to heal themselves, which put her on a path to mindfulness and spirituality. She found that changing the mind was not unlike changing the body. After experiencing her own transformation while practicing principles she was studying with renowned teachers such as Mary Morrissey, Joe Dispenza and Marianne Williamson, she decided to get certified and introduce Transformational Coaching to her own clients. Through her studies with Morrisey, she has unlocked her “Wisdom Library”, a selection of books that demonstrate possibility and potential. Sharing them with others in sessions has spiritually liberating accomplishment that has allowed her to experience growth among herself and her clients, both on an individual and group basis.

Donna continues to learn and teach at her studio in rural Yolo County in Northern California. She welcomes anyone wanting to experience her method of transformation, either remotely or in person.
