David Sunshine

Owner - Dallas Yoga Center

Since childhood David has had a yearning for expansion of consciousness, a passion for somatic embodiment and a willingness to dive deep inside himself. David has been practicing and teaching yoga for over 25 years, and through his love of ancient wisdom teachings he has travelled the globe to study personally with a vast array of master teachers, including His Holiness the Dalai Lama, T.K.V. Desikachar, Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen, and B.K.S. Iyengar.

A deep soul calling has led him to become a bridge between the ancient and modern, as he has built a vibrant yoga and wellness community in his role as the director of the Dallas Yoga Center since 2001 and trained thousands of yoga students and teachers.

He loves exploring yoga as a sacred practice that integrates the body, mind and spirit and as a path towards liberation, awakening and embodiment. In search of wholeness and personal healing and growth David has explored many meditative traditions, energy healing, shamanic journeying and mystical practices.

His calling is to understand the nature of the human mind, how reality works and the mystery of the soul. He loves to dance and use movement as a medicine for healing and enter the spiritual dimension of reality. In his passion to spark the joy and curiosity found in the search for meaning, he has sought how to bring ancient knowledge to the west in the spirit of service to make life better for humans.

He also loves to guide groups to sacred sites, and translate the magnitude of their energetic power. He has led numerous transformational adventures for groups in places such as India, Nepal, Peru, and beyond.
