Daniel Simpson

Daniel Simpson presents ancient texts for modern times. He is the author of The Truth of Yoga, a comprehensive guide to the history of practice. His approach combines scholarly knowledge with humour and insight, making yoga philosophy accessible and relevant to today's practitioners. Daniel teaches courses online, at the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, and on teacher trainings around the UK and internationally. He also offers private tuition. Drawing on a master’s degree from SOAS (University of London), and two decades of experience, he aims to help students explore their own path. Once upon a time, he was a foreign correspondent for the New York Times. His first book, A Rough Guide to the Dark Side, tells the story of the early misadventures that led him to yoga.
