A bit about what we do...
Learn about the art we practice.
What is GYROTONIC®?
Exercises are performed on the Pulley Tower. Gyrotonic exercise uses 3-dimensional movement to create connected, natural patterns, in which the body flows smoothly between contraction and extension. Gyrotonic exercise:
- Opens and lubricates joints
- Increases circulation of blood throughout the body
- Strengthens muscles
- Relieves stress
- Promotes an overall sense of well being.
Gyrotonic exercise is the ideal therapy for such ailments as arthritis and joint pain, osteoporosis, tendonitis, insomnia, spinal problems, foot and hand injuries, neck pain, shoulder injuries, lower back pain and more.
What is GYROKINESIS®?
Gyrokinesis exercise offers a convenient way to develop greater range of motion and spinal articulation without the use of the Pulley Tower.
Gyrokinesis exercises allow one to engage the entire body through seven natural elements of spinal movement: forward, backward, left side, right side, left twist, right twist and circular, as well as all other joint articulation. This approach systematically and gently works the joints and muscles through rhythmic and undulating movements, stimulating the body's internal organs while corresponding breathing patterns are integrated.
Fluidity is the key. Postures are not held for long periods of time. Instead, they are smoothly and harmoniously connected through the use of breath, making exercises appear and feel more like dancing and swimming than traditional yoga.
A single GYROTONIC® session can relieve muscle stress, and leave you more aware of your whole body. After a few weeks of training, you will likely feel a pronounced difference in strength, ease, efficiency of movement, and an overall sense of well-being.
