WHAT IS
GYROKINESIS™?
GYROKINESIS™is
yet another Juliu Horvaths brilliant exercise creations.
GYROKINESIS™
is the group mat version to the
GYROTONIC®
machine work. No equipment is necessary for
GYROKINESIS™.
GYROKINESIS™
is an active yoga class that incorporates key
principles from
Kundalini
Yoga, ballet, swimming gymnastics, acupressure and
Tai-chi.
GYROKINESIS™
begins with an energizing self-massage to awaken the body and
senses. The instructor then guides you through exercises
that get all your muscles and bones moving, stimulating the
organs, and circulating blood and fluids through the body.
GYROKINESIS™ gently
work the joints and muscles
through rhythmic and undulating exercises. Postures
are smoothly and harmoniously connected through the use of breath,
making exercises appear and feel more like a dance than
traditional yoga.
The fluid
movements of this new system for exercising
the musculature mobilize and articulate the joints while
simultaneously stretching and strengthening the body, increasing range of motion
and developing coordination.
The exercises
are fluid and organic, working through the spine with waves,
spirals, arch/curls and rocking movements, releasing the arms,
shoulders and chest, and
mobilizing
the hips and knees. The corresponding breathing patterns in every
movement stimulate the nervous system, open up the energy pathways
and oxygenate the blood.
GYROKINESIS™
yoga invigorates and re-educates the body to move
with fluidity, relaxation and power. The
work, often referred to as yoga in motion, is ideal for the man, woman,
senior, athlete or dancer, seeking health, stamina, strength and
flexibility.
You will leave feeling elated and invigorated.
GYROKINESIS™
is an excellent compliment to
private
instruction on Gyrotonic® machines. You will feel
flexible, strong, rejuvenated and energized at the end of this
class.

Gyrotonic®
