You don't have to be worried about being judged on your postpartum body, or how "weak" you are after the ultimate test that is creating and supporting a new life.

I highly recommend Ready Set Grow during your pregnancy journey. I've been taking virtual prenatal yoga classes mainly with Alexis and feel very supported, encouraged, and empowered. With the monthly membership, I got to meet with the owner, Daniele, who is incredibly knowledgable about pregnancy, labor and postpartum. She has connected me with various resources for support, which I'm grateful as I just moved to Portland. I'm so happy I found this studio! Thank you all.

I have been going to Ready Set Grow for prenatal yoga since I was 9 weeks pregnant (I’m now 7 months postpartum). The classes I’ve taken have been a very important part of my weekly routine of taking care of myself and finding a community where I feel supported. There are classes every day for both women and families. The physical space is lovely. And they have adapted gracefully into virtual classes during this unexpected time. Even in the virtual classes I’ve felt genuinely supported and a sense of community.

I started with Ready Set Grow with my 2nd baby at their brick-and-mortar location in Portland--as a new mom in those hazy, sometimes horrible first 100 days, it was refreshing to come to class with other new moms, our babes, and Danielle. Danielle creates this unique fusion of yoga, pilates and subtle dance techniques to gently and effectively help new moms get their acts together and heal their bodies from the craziness of childbirth. She has decades of dance experience, lots of training as a yoga instructor and pre/postpartum instructor, has *almost* 3 kids of her own and really melds all of

I started with the prenatal yoga classes and moved to the postpartum classes with my baby. Daniele’s knowledge of anatomy, pregnancy and movement is inspiring. She knows exactly what to do to help make you feel better as your body changes and your baby grows. The only reason my birth went as smoothly as it did, was because of the techniques and movements I learned at Ready Set Grow. Postpartum, yoga class was a wonderful and supportive way to get out with my baby and meet some wonderful friends. I cannot say enough great things about Daniele and Ready Set Grow.

I love the prenatal and baby & me yoga classes at Ready Set Grow. The yoga instructors are great at targeting any trouble spots you're having, and it's also a nice opportunity to touch base with other moms and compare notes on your pregnancy and/or babies. I always leave class feeling bothmuch better physically and mentally. I'm looking forward to trying some of the other non-yoga classes soon too!

I can't begin to describe how incredible this place has been for my postpartum journey. I recently moved to the area shortly after having my first child. I was feeling isolated and lonely. Ready, Set, Grow has given me not only a physical outlet and place to strengthen and heal following birth, but has also helped me find an amazing group of mom friends that have quite literally saved me. I love Danielle's teaching style and the community she's created. I attend classes in both Portland and Vancouver and I love each location. You can come as you are, whether you are 4 days postpartum

I love attending classes here - I've attended prenatal (at both locations) and baby/me classes. Danielle is the best yoga instructor I have had. She speaks from the heart, gives great advice, works with the specific needs of your body, and makes adjustments to the yoga positions you are in (to ensure safety and be able to get the most out of the pose). Because of her, my body and mind feel at peace after her class. I also feel so present with my little baby. I have met some great mommies as well - and now have a mommy tribe. Please attend her classes - you'll love every minute of it

The unique classes offered at this lovely little light filled studio are SO FUN. Don’t worry if you don’t feel strong enough or your baby is fussy, hungry and tired. Danielle has a gift for warmly weaving together a class that meets each as they are. The postpartum core strengthening is perfect — challenging and effective, but also gentle, subtle and healing.

I'm shocked and amazed there aren't more reviews. This place is amazing! I'm doing the prenatal yoga classes and it's nothing like regular yoga, very gentle and focused on helping not only prepare the body for labor but ease the aches and pains of pregnancy. I love the breathing techniques, advice and meditation at the end! Highly recommend!

I Highly recommend this knowledgeable instructor for her experience and expertise in pregnancy/postpartum yoga. I attended a few prenatal yoga classes with Daniele and her class helped me feel relaxed and ready for birth. 8 weeks after giving birth to my son, I made my first mommy and me yoga class. I was late and in tears that I can't seem to get anywhere with a baby on time. Daniele was so caring and understanding, she took my anxiety about time and replaced it with love, laughter and warmth. Her class became one of my weekly activities and for 7 months I did not miss a class. It was truly a

Dani made me feel safe again after a very traumatic birth. I was scared and I didn't think I could be good mother. She helped me heal my body and my soul. She had a way of making me know everything was ok, she took away all of the judgement that I placed on myself and filled that space with confidence. She helped me get in touch with a body that I didn't recognize as my own and reminded me that what I was going through was normal. I can not recommend her enough .
