The Art of Exercising and Beyond®

Juliu Horvath, a former dancer and Yogi, is the genius behind  GYROKINESIS® and Gyrotonic methodologies. Gyrotonic methodology embraces key principles found in gymnastics, swimming, ballet and yoga  which allow the body to work in an integrated manner. The Gyrotonic method is performed on equipment designed to enhance coordination, flexibility and strength while allowing total freedom of movement. Exercises, synchronized with corresponding breathing patterns, enhance aerobic and cardiovascular stimulation and promote neuromuscular rejuvenation.

The Gyrotonic equipment offers complete freedom of movement. It is fully adjustable to meet the needs of every body type and level of strength. The even and constant resistance in the handle unit and pulley tower completely eliminates the jarring at the beginning and end of a movement found in conventional exercise equipment, where most injuries occur.

A unique aspect of the Gyrotonic method is that it is relatively non-weight bearing. The equipment is built to provide assistance that gives the impression of moving in water. This quality makes it very useful for working with persons overcoming injuries as well as the elderly. In the same respect it also provides an invigorating and, at times, even aerobic movement experience. “It feels like a massage from the inside out, as if my bones are kneading the insides of my muscles” reports one client.

The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® is used worldwide in therapeutic, dance, sports specific and general conditioning facilities by people of all ages.
