Since 2014, David has taught yoga and movement, with engagements ranging from private classes for Stadtpolizei Zürich to Yoga with Picasso at Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein.

In 2016, he founded Movement Masterclass at Tanzhaus Zürich, bringing together international practitioners from contemporary dance, martial arts and bodywork. Invited artists have included Nik Bärtsch, Fighting Monkey, Bruno Caverna and Tom Weksler.

He later developed Open Dance, an experimental format combining music, darkness and free movement. His work also extends to Playfight, bodywork, men’s circles and workshops on intimacy, relationships and personal responsibility.

Alongside his teaching and facilitation, David writes interviews and cultural portraits for Kulturzüri, exploring the lives and working processes of artists and cultural figures.

Presence Remains brings these experiences into an ongoing investigation of attention, physical presence, human relationships and the space between impulse and action.
