What does a
GYROTONIC session involve?
At your first
session you will be asked to provide your
instructor with details of any physical injuries
or medical problems that will enable your
Gyrotonic instructor to customise your
session to suit your specific needs.
Your Gyrotonic
instructor will explain the principles of the
system and introduce you to some basic
movements.
During the session
your instructor will verbally guide you as well
as physically assist you through each movement
to allow you to feel the full benefits of the
Gyrotonic Expansion System.
Each session is
individually tailored to your own personal needs
and you will work within your own physical
capabilities. You should not feel any pain but
may sometimes feel a sensation of stretching.
Your instructor will encourage you to talk to
her throughout the session so that she can be
aware of how you are feeling.
As you become more
familiar with the Gyrotonic Expansion System and
you gain more strength, the sessions will become
more advanced enabling you to continue to
maximise your physical capabilities.
Your co-ordination
and rhythm will improve with each Gyrotonic
session; this in turn will enhance the way that
you perform everyday movements. Your
flexibility, posture and own physical awareness
will significantly improve.
Throughout your
Gyrotonic sessions you will be shown how to
focus on your breathing, this will aid
relaxation as well as increasing the oxygen
supply to the muscles and organs.

SPORTS
PEOPLE
The
Gyrotonic Expansion System will
strengthen the core muscles as well as
the smaller muscle groups.
The
exercises are multi dimensional and
require muscle groups to work
simultaneously therefore building the
kinetic chain, which will enhance any
sports person’s performance.
Injuries
are unfortunately inevitable whilst
being physically active during any type
of sport but Gyrotonic can reduce the
risk of injury by increasing strength
with flexibility.
Increasing
the body’s proprioception and
rebalancing the muscles equally is
crucial to a healthy functioning body.
The added
benefit for swimmers working on the
Gyrotonic Expansion System is that you
can regulate exact movement patterns and
exactness of positions, which obviously
isn’t achievable under water.
Smoothness
of motion, versatility and gracefulness
is needed in all forms of sport,
Gyrotonic offers this to you what ever
your speciality.
Gyrotonic
level 2 offers more advanced exercises,
which work on advancing strength,
mobility and flexibility, these
exercises can be done aerobically and
are extremely challenging. |
CHILDREN
Gyrotonic will aid
co-ordination and enable a child to become more
aware of their body. It will strengthen and tone
them working on symmetry throughout the
movements.
As a child grows it
is vital that the muscles and tendons are strong
enough to support the skeletal system, thus
aiding in the prevention of muscular imbalances.
By introducing your
child to the Gyrotonic Expansion system you are
enabling them to improve their posture, general
health and confidence as well as aiding in
maximizing their physical capabilities.
ELDERLY
The Gyrotonic
Expansion System will enhance balance and
strengthen muscles that may have lost the
ability to fully function after injury or
operation. Rehabilitation is vital to a full
recovery from any type of surgery
Gyrotonic offers
the ability to exercise without putting
compression on the joints, therefore enabling
the ligaments and muscles to gain strength.
PREGNANCY
Gyrotonic is a
great way during pre and post natal to keep
mobile and strong throughout your pregnancy. It
can be a gentle and stress free alternative to
more conventional ways of exercising.
All over the world people are experiencing the
life changing benefits of Gyrotonic exercise
from young to old, professional sports people,
and celebrities.
The global
recognition that the Gyrotonic exercise is
receiving from Chiropractors, Neurologists,
