Dashaun Simmons
The Priest of Play
Dashaun Simmons, the Priest of Play, sees life as one big playground—every experience a new game to explore. As the co-founder of Men At Work Healing and the Afro Play Collective, he is devoted to reconnecting the world with its innate ability to play. Whether as an initiated priest, a level 2 Reiki practitioner, or a diviner, he approaches all aspects of healing with the same joyful lens. Dashaun sings, dances, channels spirits, and plays old-school video games—all as acts of play, all as acts of spirit. His purpose? To embody play as a life and spiritual practice, helping others heal, grow, and fully embrace the game of life. After all, it’s the only game in town.
