Gyrotonic Method

 
 

GYROTONIC® exercise is an innovative mind-body exercise method that takes you where no other exercise system does. This unique and brilliant method was developed by former dancer and gymnast, Juliu Horvath, who drew his inspiration from yoga, tai chi, dance and swimming. Gyrotonic workouts go beyond the usual linear movement that we get from most forms of exercise, and instead bring your body through 3-dimensional, circular, spiraling movements using specialized equipment. The Gyrotonic Pulley Tower’s handles, weights, and pulleys enable your body to move in a way that builds strength while simultaneously expanding and stretching the body.

The exercises are a webbing of continuous flowing movement with corresponding rhythmic and breath patterns that will help to stimulate the nervous system, increase energy and vitality, build a strong core and increase joint mobility.
