Dave has been immersed in Vedic wisdom and has maintained a daily Vedic Meditation practice for the past 19 years—long enough to know that sometimes the simplest things can have the most profound effects. With a technique that requires no concentration and delivers noticeable benefits within the first days of learning, he’s found that mastering meditation is more about letting go than trying harder.When he’s not teaching meditation you can find him on the partner dance floor attempting not to trip over his partner’s feet while learning new (to him!) dance forms like Fusion, Zook, Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, and Tarraxco.Dave’s training spans six years and approximately 3000 hours, culminating in an intensive, residential teacher training program in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas. Under the guidance of Maharishi Vyasanand Giri (Thom Knoles), Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s protege of 25 years, Dave received official approval to teach this technique from Maharaji, the leader-elect of the prestigious and revered Shankaracharya tradition (the custodians of this meditation technique), which dates back thousands of years.
