David Smith

Eighteen years ago, David began his yoga journey as a Boomer simply looking to improve his fitness and instead discovered so much more. Yoga not only transformed his health, but also brought a sense of calm, confidence, and well-being that continues to guide his life today. This renewed energy even carried him beyond the mat, inspiring him to run 5k races and take on obstacle challenges such as the Warrior Dash and Spartan Sprint.

David has created video sessions for Silver & Fit. Known for designing inclusive, engaging classes, he thrives on meeting the diverse needs of guests from around the world.

Passionate about showing others that yoga truly is for everyone, David helps his students discover that the practice can open the door to a fun, active, and fulfilling life at any age. Thanks to yoga and an active lifestyle, he is healthier and more vibrant now than he was two decades ago—and he loves sharing that vitality and enthusiasm with others.

He is affiliated with Veterans Yoga Project and is approved to teach at his local Veterans Administration medical center. His advanced training includes Yoga for Seniors, Aqua Yoga, Chair Yoga, Yin Yoga, and specialized work in resilience from trauma and PTSD.
