What is the GYROTONIC® Method ?
GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® exercises are characteristic of three-dimensional movements which focus on the spine and increase the functional capacity of the entire body.
This unique system of exercise is a combination of yoga, swimming, dance, gymnastics and Tai Chi.
GYROTONIC® exercises are very fluid in motion which focus on the spine. Athletes love it for strength and co-ordination but anyone can benefit from it. The GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® methods help to prevent and recover from injury or surgery as well as prepare the body for high endurance and advanced athletic activities.
GYROTONIC® improves posture and stretches every part of the body. If you have back problems, shoulder pain, hip issues or sit for long stretches, GYROTONIC® is beneficial and the results are incredible, sometimes immediate.
Your skeletal structure will benefit as it rotates, lengthens and strengthens. Your spine will become more flexible in the lumbar and the cervical region. Your balance and core strength will improve.
What is the difference between GYROTONIC® and
GYROKINESIS®?
GYROTONIC® exercises are performed on specially-designed equipment which add resistance and support without inhibiting range of motion or speed.
GYROKINESIS® exercises are performed using only a stool and a mat for seated, standing, kneeling and lying down positions.
A GYROKINESIS® class works on the entire body and focuses on seven natural spinal movements. Breathing patterns and fluidity of postures are emphasized. A GYROKINESIS® class appears and feels more like a massage than like traditional yoga or pilates.
I discovered the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® whilst working and teaching the Pilates Methodology.
Through the practice of GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® exercises , I became convinced that such movement therapy met my body’s needs well. I loved the gracefulness and fluidity of the exercises.
My passion for this method is expressed through educating and teaching my clients and training students in both
GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS®.
