Danny’s path to teaching began after 25 years in London, where he built a successful career and eventually became head of department at what is now the world’s largest insurance broker. Yet despite that achievement, he felt deeply unfulfilled and was experiencing significant personal suffering, which led him to explore a range of modern esoteric practices inspired by teachers such as Dr Joe Dispenza.
What followed was a powerful and at times overwhelming opening into experiences he could not yet fully understand. Seeking clarity, he turned to Kundalini yoga to better understand the forces behind what he was experiencing. After several months of study with a teacher in the UK, he felt called to deepen his practice further and travelled to Rishikesh, India, where he began his training in earnest.
There, Danny met Rohit Kumar and found many of the answers he had been searching for. This chapter also led him to become a 500-hour RYT certified teacher. His journey continued through a nomadic period of study and immersion, living in different parts of the world, including Buddhist centers and ashrams, while learning from contemporary mystics such as Eckhart Tolle and Kim Eng, with whom he completed their first six-month programme.
He also studied with shaman and author Gregory Drambour and participated in ceremonies led by the respected Paje Sia Txan Hi Bai of the Huni Kuin. In addition, Danny is a qualified Pranic Healing practitioner and a member of the Pranic Healing Institute, and he remains committed to ongoing study.
Most recently, in order to share his knowledge with greater clarity and impact, Danny completed mastery-level training in NLP, Clinical Hypnotherapy, and Transformational Coaching.
Asana, pranayama and healing are at the heart of his work at Your Awakening Space.
