Danielle Marie Fusco | The American Strega
Artist ~ Healer ~ Mystic Creatrix

Danielle Marie Fusco, also known as The American Strega, is a renowned artist, healer, and mystic with deep roots in Southern Italian shamanic traditions. For over 20 years, Danielle has served as a performing artist, choreographer, and educator, specializing in the sacred arts of healing and dance. As a Reiki Master with over 15 years of experience, she offers a wide array of holistic services that blend her ancestral gifts and modern practices.

​

Drawing from her Southern Italian lineage, Danielle embodies the rich traditions of the guaratrice—the female healers who were artists, herbalists, oracles, and spiritual guides. She specializes in regional Italian dances and healing modalities that infuse Benedicaria, a cultural and mystical healing art, preserving the ancient practices of the women of South Italy. Her offerings include Tarantella workshops, Malocchio (evil eye) removal, Italian magnetism, sacred healing prayers, and Benedicaria workshops, alongside Reiki, quantum healing, crystalline energy healing, and psychic Oracle card readings.

Danielle also works with the Akashic Records, providing profound insight into soul journeys and life paths through personalized readings and energy healings. Her services are available online (globally) and in-person in Queens, NY, and Long Island.

 

As a dancer, aerialist, educator and choreographer, Danielle creates powerful connections between movement and healing. She designs workshops and performances that integrate her spiritual gifts with artistic expression. Her dance classes extend into schools, where she advocates for children with special needs, using dance as a therapeutic and expressive tool for non-verbal students. She also offers adaptive curriculum development rooted in ritual, folk dance, and holistic healing for youth.

Danielle’s work spans across the globe—whether through healing, choreography, or teaching, she brings her unique fusion of art, spirit, and culture to communities worldwide.
