A lifestyle guru and Insta-famous naturopath has pleaded not guilty to two charges of sex with a 14-year-old.
Savannah Daisley was initially charged with four counts of sex with a child, but the prosecution dropped two of those in Downing Centre Local Court.
The 45-year-old denies the other two counts, which allegedly happened within 24hrs in May last year.
It follows a bail alteration on Tuesday, where the court heard a video of “potentially erotic” dancing will form part of the evidence against Daisley in a trial next year.

Prosecutor Rebecca Nezval said the trial will see evidence of a video of dancing that occurred before the offence.
Daisley’s lawyer Michael Hempsall argued the dancing involved costumes and Michael Jackson music and was nothing controversial, but Ms Nezval said one witness described it as “erotic”.
The prosecutor also argued there was evidence Daisley gave the 14-year-old alcohol before the alleged incident.
Mr Hempsall submitted she gave the child “one glass of wine”.
The court earlier heard allegations of a phone call in which Daisley allegedly told the 14-year-old to never speak of the incident again.
Police allege Daisley was highly intoxicated at the time.
Daisley’s bail conditions were altered on Tuesday to allow her to spend more time outside her parent’s home in the Southern Highlands, with a new curfew of 10pm-6am added.
Daisley, who was granted bail earlier this year to allow her to continue to run her business, must report to police twice a week and abstain from drugs and alcohol.
Daisley had previously built a glowing reputation as a wellness guru, branding her core program as “the world’s only gut-focused, premium, organic, practitioner grade detox kit”.
The daughter of renowned horse breeder Ross Daisley boasts about 40,000 Instagram followers.
Daisley is next set to face court on January 20 and will go to trial next year.
