Strength Training
GYROTONICŪ Training
Cardio Training

While GYROTONICŪ was invented by a dancer and clearly has movement properties that come from dance, it is not a tool for dancers alone. GYROTONICŪ is an excellent exercise system to develop core strength, coordinated movement, proper healthy breathing patterns and outstanding posture. Do you want to look like the master of your domain when you're meeting new clients? Few tools will create the healthy posture and vibrant look of success better than GYROTONICŪ.

The ideal corrective for an office job. It releases my neck and lower back, dissolves pent-up frustration and anxiety, and leaves me feeling light, fit, loose and composed.

While it can appear appear to be complicated, requiring the gumby-like bodies of a waifish ballet dancer, GYROTONICŪ is great for every body type. Even for a person who hasn't been in contact with their body for years and feels stiff, weak and tired, from the very first GYROTONICŪ session the body will feel different, healthier, more open and mobile. The first thing you'll feel through doing GYROTONICŪ is an opening of your muscles and joints. That's the obvious part and it feels great. Once your body has started to open up and your joints are moving in ranges of motion they forgot existed, you'll start to feel the second major aspect of the work, which is connected, coordinated and strong movements. The most simple motions you do at home, like reaching for a mug for your morning coffee, are not isolated motions. When you reach up to grab that mug, you're not reaching just with your arm, nor is your arm what initiates the movement. Everything starts in your center, in your core. Through GYROTONICŪ training, you'll start to feel those connections from your pelvic bowl (hips) to your finger tips. Every motion becomes easier, smoother, more graceful and stronger. With each session, you're going to reduce the chances that you'll injure your back picking up your 30lb 18 month old kid.

It's a way of taking care of my body by opening up the spine and improving the quality of movements in space, on the baseball field, and in life. By opening up pathways in my body, both GYROTONIC and GYROKINESIS practice help my actions and reactions in baseball to be quicker, smoother, and completely under control.

For athletes, the complexity of the movements in GYROTONICŪ training has two great benefits to improve your game. First, your coordination improves. GYROTONICŪ exercises require you to know where all of your body parts are at all time and what they're doing. The longer you're doing GYROTONICŪ the more in depth the details get, requiring you to manage your entire body at all times. The second benefit to such complex, coordinated movement is improving your skill acquisition. By having a system where all motions are total body and you're in a multitude of seated, standing and lying positions, you not only learn how to move your body but how to learn how to move. You become better and figuring out how to make your body do what you want which translates to shorter learning curves when picking up a new sports skill, like a smooth one handed backhand.
