He first began exploring the wisdom traditions of yoga in New York City, practicing at Jivamukti Yoga School NYC, OM Yoga Centre, Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center as well as Go Yoga and Greenhouse Holistic in Brooklyn, NY. Initially fascinated by the principles of alignment in the Anusara School of Hatha Yoga and the philosophical aspects of the practice, David found a spiritual home with Ashtanga and a steady Mysore practice.
Drawn to teachers who transfer knowledge from classical yoga lineages, David has taken master classes with Sri Dharma Mittra and other iconic teachers including K. Pattabhi Jois, Eddie Stern, Tim Feldman and Sharon Gannon, co-founder of the Jivamukti Method.
David completed a 75 hour Jivamukti method online training with Anja Kuehnel in 2020 and the 300 Jivamukti online teacher training with co-facilitors Ruth Lauer-Manenti and HaChi Yu from Menla New York. His Jivamukti Yoga mentors include Valerie Grange, Cory Bryant, and advanced certified teachers Juan Sierra, Jules & Martyna Febre, Jessica Stickler and Monica Jaggi.
