David English

David English, also known as ‘Master Bear’, or just ‘Bear’ in the Colorado BDSM community, has been a practicing High Protocol Master/slave lifestyle dynamic since early 2000. His personal practices and rituals within his lifestyle dynamics have evolved over the years, and although he does not practice every ritual or doctrine offered in this book, many of his personal practices have been included as well.

Over the years he has practiced and studied High Protocol lifestyles from many different viewpoints, combining them with many other aspects of the overall BDSM lifestyle, to come up with these best examples of how many define High Protocol in their lives.

Bear has remained an active part of his local BDSM and High Protocol communities where he has always strived to share his knowledge and experience with the community through educational classes, as needed.

Among his accomplishments in the Colorado area are founding a High Protocol Educational group, a co-founder of a Denver based dominant support group, the founder and director of the MAsT: Fort Collins Chapter, (Masters and slaves Together), a founding member and former assistant director of MAsT: Denver-Metro, as well as being a founding member who serves on the executive committee for the National Leather Association-Colorado.
