TESTIMONIALS

 After the first session, my hips and groin already have much more movement: it’s incredible! :-) Also my shoulders feel more relaxed and more open than before!
--(Paola Z: professional dancer, Barcelona)

I have to tell you that I am super happy with the results of my summer intensive of Gyrotonic! I returned back to work in Sweden in great shape!
--(Sara E: professional dancer, Sweden)

The day after the first session, I felt really good and my back felt really released. The next day my spine was so articulated during work, which felt great and of course some muscle pain after working out so precise ;)
--(Sau W: professional dancer, Barcelona)

Following my first session of GYROTONIC® with Amanda, I felt absolutely great, really energised, really really relaxed and comfortable. I slept brilliantly for the first time in a while and woke up feeling very peaceful. I love the feeling that I've really been stretched out and opened up (esp. pelvic and lower back areas which I'm always told feel quite tight by massage therapists). I realise how important the breathing is too. Amanda is a caring trainer with a lovely calm manner that helped me to relax both during and post session! 
--(Nicola Thornton: Journalist/Writer/Creative Writing Facilitator, Barcelona)

Amanda’s GYROTONIC® sessions always make me feel incredible. I walk away feeling taller, lighter and way more in tune with my body. The hour flies by and I feel reassured knowing that Amanda is watching my technique carefully and guiding me to through the exercises which are chosen specifically for my needs. I recommend her to anyone who wants to workout in a safe and fun way.

The ideal corrective for an office job. It releases my neck and lower back, dissolves pent-up frustration and anxiety, and leaves me feeling light, fit, loose and composed.

The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® has completely transformed the way I understand my pitching delivery and how I prepare for each outing during the baseball season. GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® exercises have improved my body sensitivity and awareness through the introduction of certain concepts such as circular movement, spirals, kinetic chains, spinal health and mobility, hip and shoulder joint health and suppleness, and energetic pathways. It's a way of taking care of my body by opening up the spine and improving the quality of movements in space, on the baseball field, and in life. By opening up pathways in my body, both GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® practice help my actions and reactions in baseball to be quicker, smoother, and completely under control. Ultimately, both of these modalities allow me to enjoy the game in more depth, which is why I keep doing it.

It’s great! Most golfers fight coming up out of the shot, but this strengthening routine works on keeping you in the shot from start to finish. Since I have been paying attention to my posture and flexibility, I have moved from 60th to 30th on the money list in one year.
--(Andrew Magee: PGA Tour golfer)

GYROTONIC® methodology is an exceptional movement system. It teaches the student to find and understand the support for and functional relationship of the entire body. The body is then able to work as it is designed-- as a functional whole. This is in contrast to other exercise systems, which look at the body as separate with isolated parts, which work these parts individually. This is contrary to Nature’s ways . Health is only achieved through movement, and GYROTONIC® training helps to restore movement to this contracting culture. Its’ role in rehabilitation as well in general health is profound and must not be underestimated.

I had an opportunity to re-examine a patient who had undergone knee surgery in my clinic, and was utterly surprised to see how good the knee itself and the musculature of the leg were. The muscular function of the surgically repaired knee was superior to the other side, and the abraded defect of the articular cartilage healed, which shows how effective your training program really is. I am very impressed with the results obtained so far.
--(Dr. Jurgen Toft: M.D. Sports Medicine, Orthopedics Munich, Germany)

I began GYROTONIC® training a couple of years ago because of a chronic hand injury. Not only did my hand heal, but also I developed an increased awareness of my entire body, which has further improved my playing.

WHAT IS GYROTONIC®?

GYROTONIC® is a unique low-impact exercise method incorporating the key principles of yoga, tai-chi, ballet and swimming.

It simultaneously stretches and strengthens the body with minimal effort while releasing tension, developing strength and increasing range of motion.

Assisted by the GYROTONIC® Pulley Tower, exercises are performed in circular, spiraling and undulating movements.

Fluidity is the key; corresponding breathing patterns supply rhythm and enhances cardiovascular and neuromuscular stimulation.

WHO DOES GYROTONIC®?

GYROTONIC® is used worldwide with dancers, athletes, rehabilitation facilities, and as a general conditioning tool for people of all walks of life, regardless of age, physical abilities or limitations.
Devotees also include celebrities like Madonna, Naomi Campbell, Gwyneth Paltrow, Liv Tyler, Kim Cattrall, Teri Hatcher, Julianne Moore, Shaquille O´Neal and Tiger Woods!
