GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM ®
Rotary movements to unfold the body, expand against gravity, involution and implosion …
The Gyrotonic Expansion System® is a holistic exercise concept viewing the human body as a whole with the vertebral column as its central beam. It is a movement system that unites far eastern wisdom about the body’s energy that has existed for thousands of years with modern kinetics. The multifarious movements do not address the musculoskeletal system isolated or two-dimensional, as is the case in ordinary forms of training. The Gyrotonic® method works with self-contained three dimensional motion sequences, which can be performed against a steady resistance without disruption. Every motion sequence is conducted in a melodic rhythmical way and synchronised with the corresponding breathing pattern. The Gyrotonic® equipment allows for total mobility and does not restrict the diversity or intensity of movements.
Special attention is paid to increasing the functional capacity of the vertebral column. This incredible development leads to an increase in flexibility and energy levels causing organic rejuvenation, higher vitality and dynamics. Strength, coordination and mobility are built up simultaneously.
The boundary to movement is diminished through the training of multiple joints under minimal axial force. The rotary movements of the joints create a balanced backup system for the osseous apparatus. Whole series of muscles are utilised instead of individual muscles. The continuous rotations massage the organs, thereby activating the organisms’ psychological processes. The body meridians are particularly targeted in order to release the blocked energy.
Gyrotonic® creates a unique way into a culture of movement, health-related, aesthetic and performance conveying values all regarded equally.
Continuous training on the equipment tightens the connective tissue and shapes the figure. Relaxed facial muscles smooth out the odd frown line. The new found equilibrium gives the patient a positive and satisfied charisma and leads to greater levels of self-confidence.
Gyrotonic® is the perfect training for any demand. Professional athletes are supported in performance enhancing ways while fitness fanatics discover a new all around way of exercising. Cosy people find joy in exercise, rehabilitation patients receive gentle movement aid and burn-out candidates fuel up on new energy, all at the same time.
