Comments on the Soho DVD

I LOOOOOOVE YOUR YOGABEATS VIDEO on YOUTUBE (SOHO) - Love & Light - Eve

Hey David, I loved that video you posted last week. Great music, great lyrics, great production!!! And of course, the very inspiring Yoga. It is the whole package, and it simply flows!!!! I was on a high after watching it and had one of my best Yoga practices for a long time!!! - Andrew Cross

Testimonials for - 2009

David, a huge thank you from me. It was really uplifting and above all fun. I can't imagine doing yoga with anyone else now quite frankly! Got
the soundtrack on. Brilliant. - Be in touch soon. Sandie.x

Wow! I loved last evening, which I am sure you could tell by my face! I crawled home physically wrecked but emotionally on such a high.

I love your approach, I have not done Yoga before, but this seemed very free spirited which suits my character far more than the more rigid Yoga I have heard about which is probably why I have never tried it. I loved the music it added so much to the whole atmosphere, to the senses.

My body movement is very limited I know, I am starting Yoga at a very late stage but if it is ok with you I will listen to my body and do what I can. I must say afterwards my body was telling me it had done things I have never
done before or at least not done since I was 10 years old!!!!!! I am feeling great! I cannot believe how lucky I am that you
have a class so close to my home.

With a big smile on my face, and a hug and a kiss, is that too familiar after one meeting? Too bad it comes from my heart!
Lesley

Hey - I was at your workshop on Sunday and thought it was fantastic - a really refreshing approach to yoga. I've already tried a couple of the ideas in my own practice this morning and it felt great.
Thank you so much and keep on sharing the love, Helen x

Just wanted to say a huge thanks for a brilliant w/shop yesterday and lovely to see you again.
I am still buzzing from the energy of the practice and the fun aspect of it, sometimes yoga can become so serious that is forgotten about and I too firmly belive it should be fun and enjoyable without being disrespectful
and vital as we get older to remind us of the beauty of how a child's eyes sees things, that curiosity for life and wonderment for life in general.
But I did want to thank you for all your wonderful energy and fresh outlook on yoga that you imparted, and the gems that you passed onto us.
Sue

My name is Edina and I attended your workshop on Sunday. Just wanted to thank you so much for making me feel so good! You are so inspiring and
positive.

Although I have only recently begun my Yogabeats path with you, I an unable to find words to express how much your loving kindness, wisdom and encouragement means to me. I think many of the beautiful phrases you very kindly shared with us in class will travel very deeply within me and be very transformative. I am humbly amazed at my great fortune in finding my Yoga practice with you and would be very honoured to become one of your students - Thupten

Heartfelt thanks for the beautiful Yogabeats class this evening. It was an immense honour to meet you and join your class for the first time. I felt very safe and nutured in the class and feel very blessed to now be able to feel compassionate thoughts towards myself for the first time in many years. I am already immensely looking forward to next week's class.
Hope you have a blissful week. Much love - Thupten xxx

Testimonials from Innsbruck - 2009

On last Friday and Sunday I had a pleasure to participate in your workshop in Innsbruck. I just want to tell you that what you are doing is absolutely amazing and I am deeply impressed and moved by that. And I mean the whole "message" of the workshop - not just the physical aspects. Thank you very much for great memorable events! - Mirek

Already talked to Stephen, it's really good news that you are willing to come to Innsbruck again and make "macro effects with micro movements" ;-)
With Mirek (my husband, he also wrote you an email) we read more on your web pages and all what you do, your mission to "make the world a better
place" - this is really great and amazing. Looking forward to see you again. In a meantime take care! :-D Joanna"

Actually I wanted to say you all my thanks and hug you personally after the last workshop but... after the witchcraft part on Sunday I was too... sad and this makes me always literally speechless, so we both despaired pretty fast without saying "goodbye". It seems that I went deeper into my negative emotions than I was ready for. Nevertheless it was interesting experience and showed me something more about myself. I am grateful for that, too. Hugs, hugs, hugs - Joanna Chimiak-Opoka

Testimonials from Zurich - 2009

Many thanks for the great time I experienced during your workshop last Saturday
You are a tremendous teacher, plenty of creativity and energy. I hope to meet you soon again. Namaste, Dolores

Thank you for the wonderful workshop this weekend here in Zurich! I didn't get the chance to say goodbye to you in person, but I would like to thank you.

I enjoyed your workshop not only because of your unorthodox approach to the asanas and pranayama, but also because of your very uplifting and nourishing presence. The things you said - as obvious as they may seem - somehow touched a sore spot in me, and gave me courage and maybe even a little more faith. Thank you! All the best to you! Hugs Yvonne

You changed my life Sunday & re-lit my fire (excuse the cliche but it's
true).... thank you! - Viv

Great we are up to date with our bookings for next year - do pass on to David how grateful I am for his continued return visits - his days really do pull the students in, and give my bank account a little boost, so thanks very much both of you. - Julie - Yoga For Harmony - Windsor

David through the fresh chill I felt the warmth of the sun on my face and I liken this to your spirit and what you are achieving with the students in the Middle East. You are the ray of energy in the mire of lost souls - Michael Gordon - Project 409 , Brixton

Reviews from Amida Club, Hampton, June 2007

Hi. I was absolutely blown away by the yogabeats workshop I attended last Saturday and wanted to know if there was a dvd I could buy. Many thanks. Elena

I thought the workshop was absolutely brilliant, by the way. Forget the body, it totally altered my state of mind from a bit grumpy with a slight headache to ‘wow’ ridiculously cheerful and positive. I probably irritated everyone else, though, with my complete cheerfulness! - Lexi

Reviews from West Crete Holidays, May 2007

A Yogabeats holiday is now a must! I am amazed at the feelings in both mind and body that I experience in the these unique sessions. I feel so much better after this year's fix. Hope to be back on another holiday next year - Chris

This week in Crete has been a tonic. I feel so much calmer. I hope I will be a more positive person after a time for contemplation and intensive Yoga for the mind and body. Thanks again David - Sally

This is the most fun I've ever had in a yoga class. David has somehow managed to completely re-write the rulebook on yoga, whilst remaining loyal to its roots. He teaches with passion and a near-permanent smile, putting you at ease with his inspirational and moving words, however inexperienced you may be.
The class is set to sometimes ambient, sometimes funky music, incorporating both frequent use of the bandhas (detoxifying breathing techniques) and 'micromovements' into traditionally static poses. The result is an empowering practice, leaving you feeling sexier, taller, more flexible, stronger in the limbs and, frankly, high as a kite. I felt nothing short of amazing at the end of the week, with an improved metabolism, a 3lb drop in weight and an inner peace I'd never known before. In fact, so enamoured was I with Yogabeats that I'm changing career and will be training to teach it this year.
- Mel

A fantastic and informative week. The course was very beneficial and gave me a great sense of well-being - mentally and physically. Thank you very much David - Margaret

The Yoga was awesome! - Andrew

I have enjoyed the Yoga very much and loved the dancing movement lots. Thank you- Sylvia

Really enjoyed the Yoga and thanks for the advice. I've learned so much - Ada

Cio Amigos. What a fantastic week....YES and the Best is yet to come....!! - Guisi

Reviews from Geneva

Something strange happened after your class, I was like in a different world, so I did a traffic violation, the police stopped , in due right, and just asked, where I was coming from , I said from a great yoga class, instead of fining me , they just said, please do not do it again. And the Swiss police are not famous for their generosity. I think they were shocked with my sincerity and with the spontaneous smile that popped from my lips, so they just left really quickly. The transformation that yoga creates ! Thanks, Anita

Reviews from Tobago

I travelled halfway accross the world from Saudi Arabia to Tobago on the strength of two Yoabeats sessions years earlier. It was so worth the journey. It has been amaaaaazing! I feel emotionally, spritually and physically stronger and more flexible.
Thank you Namaste - Suraya

David - What can I say. It has been an amazing journey from when I first came here two weeks ago. I came here a very inexperienced 'yogi' and I am going to leave a stronger, more spiritual and chilled out person. I will always remember it and look forward to Yoga in July. Thanks - Lucy.

This was my first real experience of Yoga. I thoroughly recommend it. It has been a very positive and enlightening experience on many levels - Sue

Reviews from the Manchester Yoga Show

Hiya my name is Kate.I'm 22 from Liverpool. I attended your YogaBeats class in Manchester's Gmex yesterday and I loved it. It was so much fun and me and my friend had a giggle too.I have been doing Iyengar Yoga since December 05 and I think I have the Yogabeats bug now.

I really enjoyed the workshop with David, it was very moving emotionally in ways I hadn’t anticipated. Namaste. - Lynne-Marie

I found the Yogabeats session really uplifting, it was good to go to a yoga class and actually laugh. I travelled up to manchester from Plymouth Devon and participated in a lot of different yoga classes, each had a different effect, but David's class was great......Thank you all so much for such a fab time. - Lisa

We thoroughly enjoyed the Yoga Show, especially David's class at the end of the day. We were raving about it to all our yogi friends all week. We didn't quite master the funky moves that David seems to do with ease but we had fun trying. In fact it was the most "fun" we've ever had doing a yoga class. - Namaste - Sue & Steve

Reviews from Dragon Hall, Covent Garden

Hi David, It took me a while to come in to land after the class yesterday and the friends who came too were equally high! Felix loved it and Rob was really pleased that he came too. So thank you from us all.- Nell - Yogabugs.

David Sye has a fresh and unique way of teaching yoga which feels very instinctive. By incorporating music and movement into his classes, he creates a vibrancy and energy in the room that I've never felt in a yoga class before. Fun, releasing and empowering. Anyone who likes yoga must try - Tania Alexander, Journalist

Reviews from the Crescent Arts Centre, Belfast

It was certainly a new experience for me in yoga. I really enjoyed the workshop and learned lots of new ways to encourage my students to look inside themselves when practicing their yoga and get a feel for the postures for themselves. The afternoon event was fun and very challenging. I was exhausted by the end of the day, though I felt great when I finally got home. I have to say when I went out dancing that evening, I was making some great shapes on the dancefloor! - Laura Finlay

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the event and the workshop in Belfast last weekend. Mind you I could hardly move a muscle the next day!! It made me tune into my body and my surroundings and it made me think about how much I take my body for granted - Kirsteen Dempsey

Just to say we thought the event was great.. still buzzing.. Stuart

I have carried the positive energy I received from last Saturday into every area of my life. It was an amazing event and I really look forward to the next one - Donna

......thanks to David for opening up the field of Yoga in a very fun way. ......really enjoyed both parts of the event - they've proved to me how much I need to get back into my personal practice - and after I'd recovered from the aches and pains of stretching muscles I never thought I had, my sore back was gone - thanks millions!! I haven't done that much yoga in one day since India and boy did I feel it! ..... having said that David's energy and enthusiasm shine through and he does say 'smile' in all the right places! He's a fantastic inspirational teacher - Jacky Ingram

Reviews from Dahab

I'm fairly inexperienced in Yoga, but found this to be fun, challenging, rewarding and most of all, spritually enriching! Thanks it was great. - Cat Nelson

An Inspiring week. Challenging in many ways, emotionally and physically. I would recommend the week to anyone. Such a different style with plenty of laughter thrown in. - Sally Tilley.

The Yogabeats experience touches every part of the body and senses and enable you to achieve things that you had previously thought beyond your reach. - Christine Ronaldson

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU . You have quite literally changed my life. - Melanie Bass.

Reviews from La Gomera

I am enjoying David's energy and his love for his work. It allows me to embrace myself more fully. Lots of crying and laughing - Thank you . - Alexia

Please can I have a mini David to put in my pocket and take home to the 'real world' - Life would be a breeze. Truly inspirational, mind/body boggling Yoga and loads of fun! - Krishna

Yoga is excellent. David is a compassionate man with much understanding - Situl

A thought prevoking, invigorating experience...... Karen

Thank you so much for all the funky, kick-ass Yoga. It certainly wasn't 'pensioners' yoga and it left me like an uplifted 'sweaty betty' . Without a doubt the best, most fantastic teacher I have ever had the privilege to work with. Namaste - Gill

David has a really refreshing approach to Yoga and it is and absolute pleasure to be in his class - Angela

Love David's style and his sense of humour! Wish all Yoga teachers were as much fun! - Fiona

Just wanted to say thank-you for such a wonderful holiday in La Gomera and introducing me to Yogabeats. I was really blown away by the whole concept, which was a wonderful and uplifting experience. Thanks so very much for the gift of Yogabeats. - Davina

Reviews from the London Yoga Show

I went to the Yoga Show on Saturday and had a great time. I spent loads of money and went into some great classes, the best class for me on Saturday was David Sye's class, yoga beats, it was fab. I also thought the food was much better this year . Do we have to wait a whole year for another event ? it was so good I would love to go again - Miranda

Reviews from Knockbracken Hall, Belfast

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the Yogabeats session on the 17th Nov. As a beginner I was very shy at the beginning of the evening but very quickly David put everybody at ease. I forgot to be self conscious and just let myself go with the flow. I absolutely loved it as did the two friends I brought with me. I stayed relaxed and chilled out for at least a week afterwards (even though I was sitting my final level accountancy exams!). I can't wait until the next session and wish I could go every week! - Noelene

I just wanted to let you know that Saturday was a great event, Very energetic and really uplifting – also great fun watching the mad shapes David gets himself into! - Victoria

I just wanted to write to say thanks to you and David for an inspiring and uplifting day. I was a little sore on Sunday, but it was well worth it. David's passion for yoga and his enthusiasm for teaching (and for life in general) is quite infectious. Please keep me on the list--I'm already looking forward to the next class! - Rey

It was a great day and my friends are now converts! - Donna
’m so glad you persuaded me to try it – I didn’t think I’d survive 3 hours, and was a little achy on Sunday but it was great fun. - Julie

I thought David's approach was unique, inspirational and thought provoking - i will definitely try to be free for the next one. I was delighted that i didn't stick out like a frumpy mother of two - it's comforting to see such a mix of people - Katie
