The Body Thrives on Dynamic Ease

Dynamic Ease is the ability to perform a movement with maximum efficiency and minimal effort. When you achieve Dynamic Ease, you will know it – it is a distinct physical sensation, a feeling of effortless power, elegance and grace.

To sense Dynamic Ease, recall when you learned a challenging physical task – it could be when you learned to ride a bike, ski, or even type. At first, you felt weak, clumsy, intimidated, and frustrated. But you persevered until in one moment, suddenly: Bingo! Dynamic Ease!

Dynamic means that you are consciously making something happen. Ease comes from the choice to move with efficiency. Dynamic Ease is a sensation that can be refined over time.

When you reach a state of Dynamic Ease, you not only sense power and grace, but neuromuscular creativity. Dynamic ease allows you to create movement without even thinking. Creativity is thwarted when you have to struggle with your movement. People who work to move never experience the joy of creativity that arises naturally from Dynamic Ease.
