To Imagine Your Near Future . . .

 

As You Sink Deeper Into Your Yoga Posture,
You Smile Inwardly, With A Well Deserved Sense Of Satisfaction . . .

Fully engaged in creating your own, individualized “Perfect, In-the-Moment Yoga Posture,” you are Playing Your Edge, also known as Being with What Is — discovering, not forcing, your internal sense of alignment — working up to and with, yet not exceeding, your natural physical and mental limitations.

Not attempting to out-perform other students, nor yourself, you are getting stronger and more flexible, more coordinated and agile, without building excess tension or stress.

If working on your own, rather than rely on the instructions of someone else, you allow your own body to tell you and take you where it needs to go, awarely exploring and spontaneously dissolving physical and mental tensions and stresses along your way.

As you internally explore your neuromuscular and myofascial tensions, sensations and resistances, many of which you've never felt or noticed before, you sink deeper into your yoga postures than ever, feeling and releasing Tensions, Stresses & Habit Patterns you didn’t even know existed, that you could not even feel, let alone process . . .

Until YOU Learned How . . .

You quietly, confidently explore unique and subtle variations and modifications you’ve learned and developed with your own experience and insight. … Variations that spontaneously and dynamically shift and change from moment-to-moment. … Variations you learned, and sometimes create, based on your unique circumstances and your new-found and extensive, Scientific Knowledge & Experiential Skills, of how the human bodymind REALLY works in posture, movement and asana. . . .

While DSL's concept and execution of bodywork is nothing short of amazing, it is his approach to yoga that has been life altering for me. The profound yet subtle changes have reinvented not only my own practice, but the way I teach yoga as well. Of all the yoga techniques I've studied in the past 30 years, not only are David's methods  what I've been searching for, but the feedback from my students is equally as positive. I'm excited about teaching yoga again.

You're developing new kinesthetic and tactile skills — a deeper and more precise sense of how you feel, how you move, of what's happening inside your BodyMind. You've incorporated physical and mental skills along with the Ten Principles for Maximizing Results, enhancing your benefits from that “perfect asana” — safely exploring your limits — discovering your true, organic source of proper alignment that naturally occurs when activating your internal Lines of Energy. … Yet you are, with the very same techniques, Minimizing Your Risk of Injury.

David’s passionate interest in anatomy and physiology as they relate to yoga has sparked my own curiosity and deeper investigation into these areas. His depth of understanding as to how the body operates, and how it responds to yoga practice, filled gaps in my own understanding as a yoga teacher. I like his 10 principles for maximizing results and preventing injuries while practicing yoga asana, which emphasize safety and honoring individual needs. David’s experience as a yoga teacher, bodyworker, trainer, and passionate student of the human body make him a valuable resource for yoga teachers looking to expand their knowledge and learn sound principles on which to practice and teach yoga. I appreciate that David encouraged us never to just accept his ideas on anatomy and yoga, but to test them for ourselves, in our own bodies and with our students. (emphasis added)

Your mind no longer runs from body-part to body-part, attempting to place, push or prod your body into that so-called Proper Alignment — an approach you now know doesn’t really work all that well. . . .

• Especially when trying to quiet your mind. . . .
• Or finding true structural integrity in your Body. . . .
• Or have a wholistic, integrated experience of your Body, Mind and Environment.

You've been progressing further and deeper than ever, yet relaxing more fully, too. At the same time, you're preventing any short or long-term injuries that far too many people — including many yoga teachers — used to develop from doing yoga too aggressively, with poor bio-Structural Dynamics (which is NOT about aggressively precise, pre-determined, or forced alignment.) Before learning The DSL Method of Let-Go Yoga, you did not realize that the willful quest for so-called Perfect Alignment was very often a major cause of injury.

Yes, there were, and are, many yoga practitioners who would strive for that perfect posture & alignment, but were building far too much subtle tension and stress in the process. They were unknowingly pushing their joints where their muscles and tendons were not yet ready to go. Yes, many of them got VERY flexible, but their flexibility was masking the hidden, subtle tensions, stresses and strains that were accumulating over the years. Tensions that eventually caused a wide-range of physical stress and problems — even injury — in many people.

They were, without realizing it, developing stability through rigidity, rather than stability through fluidity. Yet you've learned that this Rigidity leads to the many future problems of excess muscle tension. Truly fluid, energetic, precise movement and action, and great posture, is the result of releasing the natural forces already existing in your body from birth, forces that do not need to be learned, but re-discovered and recovered. Like how to work with gravity, rather than against it.

Most people did NOT know the Inner BodyMind Dynamics of what works, and what does NOT work, in physical yoga practice. They were doing what most everyone thought was accepted as factual and correct, even scientific. Yet you took the time to learn about, expand and deepen your understanding to SEE and FEEL and KNOW what happens in your human bodymind during your yoga practice … and Life In General.

You now know where effortless, great posture and energetic, coordinated movement really come from, as well as the causes of and solutions for many aches, pains and dysfunction that too many people suffer from. You know why sit ups, crunches and other so-called abdominal strengthening exercises actually cause far more trouble with posture and pain — and bad backs, necks and shoulders — than most people, even physicians, realize.

David's work is amazing! A year ago I was hardly able to move due to severe back pain (this was not the first time). The doctor prescribed, once again, physical therapy and though I practiced these PT techniques for months, my pain grew stronger and my ability to move lessened. I then hired David Scott Lynn and within a short time I not only felt relief, but my standing, walking, sitting, and moving postures had improved. Now, 12 months later, I seldom feel pain and move with ease, freedom, and flexibility; moving in ways I never imagined were possible a year ago. Thanks to David, I have a daily pain-free yoga, standing, walking, and sitting practice, and I have new methods to share with my students. David's knowledge is extraordinary! David's techniques work!

Your foresight, and your quest to BE on the Leading Edge of Yoga, led you to discover and apply principles, practices and therapeutic keys – the Inner BodyMind Dynamics – rather than the many Myth-Conceptions so many used to (and many still do) believe and practice.

This has kept you safe in the midst of great gains from practicing a combined form of physical/mental yoga. A system based on well-established  principles of physical and medical sciences, wholistic medicine and human nature, as well as Essential Insights from the East.

Knowing the combined perspectives and sciences that a small handful of leading structural, neuromuscular and myofascial bodyworkers know, plus your growing knowledge from traditional and modern approaches to yoga, your knowledge and skills are greatly expanded — as are your abilities to get the results you want for Your Own Self and Experience.

David is a Master Bodyworker who continues to be invited back here over and over by clients who love his work! His yoga workshops help one to get into their body and experience the principles of how yoga and the body works.

One opportunity to go down this path is by way of DSL's FUNdamentals of Yoga and Let-Go Yoga™, a modern and unique — some say revolutionary — Leading Edge System of Physical/Mental Yoga informed by the practices and sciences of hands-on bodywork plus orthodox medical sciences and wholistic medicine. A system that builds upon and expands the systems you already use, rather than replacing them. … A system that will enhance your abilities the very day you begin to explore it.
