Method

The GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® meth­ods are com­pli­men­ta­ry exer­cise meth­ods devel­oped by pro­fes­sion­al dancer Juliu Hor­vath to help him recov­er strength and agili­ty after debil­i­tat­ing injuries suf­fered dur­ing his dance career.

Both meth­ods are high­ly adapt­able, mak­ing them acces­si­ble to every­one, regard­less of age or phys­i­cal abil­i­ty. I have worked with a vari­ety of peo­ple, includ­ing golfers aim­ing to increase their range of motion and flex­i­bil­i­ty, senior cit­i­zens want­i­ng to increase their strength and improve their pos­ture, and yoga instruc­tors recov­er­ing from work-relat­ed injuries. It is won­der­ful to see how these meth­ods can help a per­son regain the joy of mov­ing with ease and power.

GYROTONIC® Training

Gyro­ton­ic exer­cis­es are per­formed on cus­tom-designed equip­ment and enable the simul­ta­ne­ous length­en­ing and strength­en­ing of mus­cles, stim­u­late cir­cu­la­tion and enhance joint mobil­i­ty and coor­di­na­tion. The exer­cise sequences are com­posed of spi­ral­ing, cir­cu­lar move­ments that flow togeth­er in rhyth­mic rep­e­ti­tions with cor­re­spond­ing breath­ing pat­terns. This allows the joints to move through a nat­ur­al range of motion with­out jar­ring or com­pres­sion, cre­at­ing bal­ance, effi­cien­cy, strength and flexibility.

GYROKINESIS® Training

Gyroki­ne­sis exer­cis­es are per­formed using a chair and a mat. They gen­tly work the entire body, open­ing ener­gy path­ways, stim­u­lat­ing the ner­vous sys­tem, increas­ing range of motion and cre­at­ing func­tion­al strength through rhyth­mic move­ment sequences. It is an orig­i­nal and unique move­ment method that has ben­e­fits and qual­i­ties sim­i­lar to those found in Yoga, Tai Chi, gym­nas­tics and dance. Class­es are taught either in a pri­vate for­mat or in small groups.
