GYROKINESIS® Method
GYROKINESIS® upholds the same principles of GYROTONIC®, but does so without the use of equipment. It is similar to a dance or yoga class, as it is taught in a group setting. Like a dance class, flow and rhythm are essential to the curriculum.
A GYROKINESIS® class can have a strong sense of community. Deeper personal rewards can be found as the class moves, breathes, and grows together.
Seat Work
Class traditionally begins seated on a stool. The class prepares the mind and body for the movement ahead with an awakening of the senses through simple breathing patterns. In the seated position, the class moves through a series of fluid movements that mobilize the spine. These movements include arching, curling, bending, twisting, spiraling and waving the spine. The same patterns are expanded upon as the class leaves the stools and proceeds to floor work.
Floor Work
Encompassing a variety of positions including kneeling, seated, and standing, the floor work releases and strengthens the entire body. Focus is on a variety of joint and muscle groups including hips, knees, hamstrings and abdominals. Corresponding breathing patterns stimulate the nervous system, open energy pathways and oxygenate the blood.
