As a professional educator, David Wilson brings a life-long interest in how people learn to both his teaching and practice of movement. He believes that movement is a birthright and that by combining curiosity, playfulness and compassionate self-awareness, anyone can practice movement in ways that will interest them, support them and evolve with them as their lives and bodies change. He is deeply interested in how people might use creativity, critical thinking and the spirit of inquiry as tools of movement, especially as they age.
