What is Gyrotonic exercise? The word Gyrotonic literally translates to "invigorating circle". It is a method of conditioning that consists of fluid, continuous exercises aided by a Gyrotonic machine and serves to simultaneously stretch and strengthen the body. The Gyrotonic practice and breathing are synchronized to create a mind/body equilibrium and perpetual flow of invigorating energy. With consistent practice, balance and coordination is gained while the immune system, emotional strength and protection from injury is improved. All of these come together to improve ones movement quality and overall well being in everyday life. Gyrotonic exercise also serves as a rehabilitative therapy for those who are recovering from surgeries, accidents, broken bones, scoliosis, arthritis and other structural issues. Gyrotonic exercises can also help with depression, anxiety and other emotional ailments by releasing tension in the emotional centers of the body. The emotional therapy that comes with Gyrotonic practice is a direct consequence of the physical movements performed. The balance of the connection between mind and body is the key to living a happy and healthy life.
