GYROTONIC® + GYROKINESIS®
Alessandra's interest and passion in GYROTONIC® was developed in 2011 through her dancing career. The Gyrotonic Expansion System® helped her prevent injuries, improved her overall power, fluidity, and mental well-being both as a dancer and a person. The method opened doors to understand the body’s alignment and functionality, and how essential both are to live a conscious life. Her life-changing experience with the GYROTONIC® method inspired her to share these benefits with others.
WHAT IS GYROTONIC®?
The GYROTONIC® method is a holistic, highly versatile movement system, which is based on specially developed training equipment.
It’s designed to take the body beyond its current limitations, executing exercises that flow one into the other allowing the muscles to contract and extend smoothly. Particular attention is brought to the decompression on the spine and to its alignment. GYROTONIC® is often used to heal scoliosis and other spine related issues.
Unlike conventional training methods, GYROTONIC® allows for free-flowing and three-dimensional movements. You not only train all muscle groups, but also improve agility and mobility while simultaneously gaining strength and coordination. There are corresponding breathing patterns for each exercise that support your movements perfectly and boost your concentration.
GYROTONIC® was developed by the former ballet dancer Juliu Horvath. After a career-altering injury, he created this unique training concept, which combines therapeutic principles with elements of yoga, dance, Tai Chi and swimming. Nowadays, GYROTONIC® is used worldwide and is designed to fit anyone’s ability, from elite athletes to someone recovering from an injury. This method tremendously benefits professional athletes of all sports, including dancers, soccer, tennis and basketball players.
WHAT IS GYROKINESIS®?
GYROKINESIS® is a training method from which GYROTONIC® was derived. It is practiced on a stool and mat rather than with the equipment and was originally called Yoga for Dancers.
Starting from the spine, the exercises involve the entire musculoskeletal system. In this way, not only are the muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues stimulated, but also the nervous system, endocrine system and internal organs. Flowing movements and rhythmic breathing patterns specifically activate the body’s meridians, facilitate the flow of energy and awaken the body’s regenerative powers. It's a complete form of exercise that addresses the entire body and allows everyone to move in their comfort zone while exploring their own body's potential.
