GYROTONIC® training consists of multidimensional exercises that gently balances the body's strength and flexibility. Through circular movements and breathing patterns, the exercises stimulate the internal neuromuscular system and improve kinesthetic awareness. The results are improved alignment, injury rehabilitation and prevention, and a greater, more fluid range of motion.
GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® was created in 1984 to rehabilitate dancers. Using fluid exercises and non-linear circular motion, GYROTONIC® strengthens the core. It follows the principles of yoga, utilizing the breath to strengthen and stretch muscles and improve circulation. This style of movement increases range of motion, strengthens the nervous system and improves spinal articulation and flexibility.
The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® is extremely adaptable and can benefit anyone from the professional dancer or athlete to seniors maintaining strength and balance or anyone recovering from an injury. The system increases flexibility and range of motion that improves performance, includes weight bearing exercises that strengthen bones, and all of the exercise focus on balance and coordination. Keeping both the mind and body healthy! It is also gentle enough to be incorporated into any pre- or post-natal program.
GYROTONIC® training is used around the world by physical therapists, chiropractors, osteopaths and hospital rehabilitation units. For more information please visit www.gyrotonic.com.
