Dan is a Licensed Massage Therapist and received his training through the South Dakota School of Massage Therapy.
Dan has always felt his call here on earth is to serve, and he has enjoyed that call throughout his life in many areas, most recently through his discovery of laughter yoga and life coaching. As he's explored deeper into his own sense of purpose and well-being he was called to go back to school and become a massage therapist.
The gift of using his hands to help sooth and bring relief to others through massage has been a real joy for Dan, and he looks forward to growing his skills and bringing continued well-being and joy to the community.

What an opportunity! We were thrilled to share the many health benefits of Laughter Yoga with Respiratory Therapists at a conference in Sioux Falls the end of September. Having just got back from the All American Laughter Yoga Conference in San Diego we were excited to laugh with these professionals.
Imagine sitting in a courtroom every day and being responsible for taking down what everybody says. That's what court reporters do. And do you think they need some stress management from their job? That's an understatement!
