Warm hearted, with a delightful sense of humor, David is a certified Ananda Yoga and Meditation teacher. (Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT 200) with the Yoga Alliance.) He also teaches taiji and qigong. He lives at Ananda Village and is part of The Expanding Light Retreat team.

David has been on a spiritual path since several awakening experiences in his teenage years. He earned a B.A. degree in Philosophy, with a special interest on Eastern religions.

Later, while working and raising a family, he continued to study and practice different techniques and traditions of meditation.

David is a very gifted teacher. He has clearly arrived at his knowledge through experience. This allows him to relate to the learning process. He brings humanity and expertise to what he shares. —Monica S., San Francisco, CA
