Meet Daniel Carrell, also known as "Coach Daniel," a dynamic and energetic member of the Center for Training & Wellness at Easterseals. Daniel brings his ACE Personal Training Certification and over 8 years of experience in coaching, training, and leading group workouts to his role. His passion for fitness and wellness shines through in every interaction.
Daniel’s journey into the world of wellness began with an invitation from a friend, which quickly turned into a deep appreciation for the supportive and vibrant environment at Easterseals. Known for his ability to get people moving and make fitness fun, Daniel excels at transforming high emotions into positive energy through physical activity. His Wellness room is a sanctuary for those looking to "let off steam," whether through a walk, a session on the punching bag, or a calming yoga mat session.
A 2016 graduate of Abundant Life School, Daniel took a brief pause from college but re-enrolled to complete his bachelor’s degree. His educational journey reflects his commitment to personal growth and continuous learning.
When he’s not at work, Daniel loves spending time with his wife, whether exploring nature on hikes, searching for waterfalls, or simply relaxing at home. He’s passionate about completing physical challenges, such as running half marathons and kayaking, and draws inspiration from those who embrace the natural world.
Originally from Delaware, Daniel has called Sherwood, Arkansas, his home since infancy. He finds it hard to imagine living anywhere else. Although he hasn't had the chance to volunteer coach recently, it’s an activity he hopes to return to in the future.
Daniel’s commitment to an active lifestyle means he couldn’t give up jobs that keep him moving and making a difference. He hopes to be remembered as someone who got along with everyone and was always available to help. A fun fact about Daniel is that he has the entire script of the Bee Movie saved in his notes app, which he sometimes enjoys sharing with friends for no particular reason.
Daniel’s dedication to fitness, his approachable nature, and his love for exploring make him an invaluable part of the Center for Training & Wellness at Easterseals.
