• Physical/Mental/Relational Yoga
• Structural Analysis & Yoga Therapeutics
• Structure of Muscles, Fascia & Joints
• The Meditative Brain-Mind-Body Connection
• Playing “The Edge” of Pain, Fear & Resistance
• Precise Verbal & Manual Asana Adjustments & Assists

Cross-Training in Yoga-based, Hands-on bodywork, combined with neuro-muscular, myo-fascial & structural physiology. Even if you never actually DO tai chi or bodywork, developing Structural Intelligence/Kinesthetic Intimacy, feeling and working with muscles and fascia in multiple and deeper dimensions, including your hands, gives you a new sense of working most effecticiently,* including providing more precise feel for the muscles of, and targeted Asana Adjustments for, your Students & Clients. . . . 

(*Effecticiently = Effective plus Efficient)

And you never know when friends or family will need some hands-on, myofascial work. It comes in handy, literally! You can’t lose by expanding your skills.

Playing The Edge is the NO Pain, MORE Gain Principle of Homeopathic, Low-Dose Therapeutics and Focal Point of DSL’s Physical/Mental/Relational Yoga, Preventive Yoga Therapy, & Yoga-based Bodywork. . . .

Originally developed  by Joel Kramer — whomYoga Journal calls the Father of American Yoga — and expanded upon by DSL from therapeutic concerns, you’ll learn about working effectively with Pain, Fear & Resistance — intensities of sensation — in a wide range of situations from very healthy to highly traumatized individuals.
