Meet Dynell – Concert Violinist & Sound Meditation Practitioner
Dynell has spent her whole life surrounded in the exploration of sounds & vibrations. Her life is dedicated to the topic of creating sounds that positively affect the mind, body, spirit and energy fields of everyone who comes to her – be it audience members or violin students.
As a child prodigy, by the time she was 9 months old she had chosen the violin.
No one would take on a 9 month old toddler violin student. She had to wait (impatiently) until she was 2 years old to begin lessons.
When she was 3 years old, she performed her first piece and made it into Seattle’s main newspaper as one of “Seattle’s Youngest Musicians.”
In her first year of college, she won the award for Seattle’s ‘Young Artist of the Year’ and soloed with the Tacoma Symphony.
Her entire life has been dedicated to the violin: By the time she was ten years old, she was performing 1-3 concerts per weekend state- wide.
Dynell also studied with some of the world’s finest teachers: Eudice Shapiro was her teacher at University of Southern California (USC) where she attended on a full Music Performance Scholarship.
Another huge influence was also Abram Shtern. He was one of Russia’s most revered violin teachers before the Iron Curtain came down. As soon as it came down, he came to America.
After college Dynell needed to address the physical pain she experienced from violin related injuries. She took time off to live in England where she studied with Kato Havos and learned to approach the violin from body balance.
That experience changed her entire approach to both teaching & playing the violin. Since then, she hasn’t had pain while playing; Not one of Dynell’s students experience any discomfort on the violin either. If you have ever picked up a violin, you know “pain free violin” is exceptional.
Since then, Dynell has established herself as an international violin teacher, making use of the internet via either FaceTime or Skype. Currently, she has students all over the world and has taught celebrities like Patricia Arquette.
During high school and college, Dynell’s summers were spent in Southern California studying with Claire Hodgkins, assistant violin teacher to violin icon Jascha Heifetz. Summers were also spent traveling internationally as a soloist, concert master and/or section player with various groups.
As an adult, she relocated from Seattle, Washington to Southern California, where she now performs predominantly live concerts locally and internationally.
Live concert photos you see here include Lady Gaga & Tony Bennett, Johnny Mathis and a performance at the Hollywood Bowl with Diana Ross.
She has performed with hundreds of others over the years like Stevie Wonder & Ray Charles, but these are photos of a couple of her recent live performances. Next to the Johnny Mathis photo below, she is sitting as the lead violinist for Johnny Mathis.
In addition to a strong upbringing in music, sound and vibration, Dynell was born with an intuitive side stronger than the average person. She was also born recalling a Place Of Light she came from prior to birth. Read more in depth — click on the link at bottom of the page, or clicking here.
Her life’s journey goes beyond sound. She gravitates towards collecting crystals and rocks, Tibetan items and sound items like Tibetan singing bowls & Crystal singing bowls.
Early on, as a young adult, Dynell began to embrace her “other worldy side”, she only doing energy clearing for homes.
Originally, Dynell just “ran energy” (channeled) Light from her ‘Place of Light’ through her hands.
Over time, Dynell began calling it, “Vibration Of Light.”‘ Here is a blog post which is dedicated helping a reader understand what “Vibration Of Light” is.
Later in life, she infused Sound Vibration to clear energy more deeply.
As she evolved and got more comfortable with her intuitive energy gifts, she realized all of this helped people. She learned it could go beyond clearing energy in homes.
Currently, on a referral basis only, she has clients coming to her for either clearing energy in their homes, or energy balancing of the body, sometimes both.
Dynell’s entire life is about Performing as a Concert Violinist, Teaching Violin, Sound, Vibration, and Energy Clearing of all types.
Whether she is playing her violin on stage as a concert violinist, teaching violin to just a select number of students, helping people find a meditative state through Sound Baths, or raising the vibrations & clearing energy on people and in homes, Dynell’s entire life has been immersed in Sound and Vibration of Light.
By having incorporated the use of vibroacoustic instruments like Tibetan singing bowls, crystal singing bowls and other instruments, Dynell takes vibration from the concert stage, customizes it and brings it personally to each client. Her talent gives each client a journey through sound and vibration designed specifically to promote relaxation and individual consciousness.
Both musically and spiritually, she brings a level to Sound Baths and any of her Vibration Of Light ™ Energy Treatments that others, simply, cannot.
