About Dan

When Dan is asked what he does for a living, the answer he gives is, “I tell stories and teach yoga.”

That answer is completely true - and a massive undersell.

What Dan does is INSPIRE people. He inspires them to be the best version of themselves, to never give up, give in, or quit, and he inspires them with actionable tools to help realize that ANYTHING is possible with the appropriate mindset and effort.

Dan Nevins is a highly decorated Army veteran, international speaker, and mindfulness teacher whose story of resilience has inspired millions.
