Gyrotonic Expansion System®
Gyro = Circle / Tonic = strengthening (greek)
GYROTONIC® is an all-encompassing movement concept that is practised on handmade machines that were invented and developed by Juliu Horvath (*1942). According to this system the human body is regarded as a unit and the spinal column as its central carrier. Rather than training separate muscles, the focus is placed on working interlinked muscle chains, i.e. the coordination is challenged and accordingly improved. Horvath’s rich knowledge of wide-ranging disciplines like gymnastics, swimming, ballet, Kundalini yoga, acupuncture, among others, all contributed to nourish and enhance his own independent system.
“The ultimate aim is to be at home in one’s body, to be at one with the nature of oneself, and to experience exercise as a creative and delightful experience.” – Juliu HorvathThe training on the machine is done on a one-to-one basis and allows for full movement freedom. It has no restrictions regarding variety or intensity of movement. The three-dimensional movement sequences are closed onto themselves, are carried out seamlessly against a steady resistance and is supported by the breath. This allows for a workout that simultaneously and in equal measure develops strength, coordination and mobility.
Through regular training, blockages are set into movement and tensions are released. It contributes equally to long-term postural improvement and the newly discovered movement freedom allows for an unhindered body sensation. Successful results have also been achieved in the following field of therapy: back and neck pain, muscular misbalances, arthritis, osteoporosis, scoliosis, and multiple sclerosis.
