TRAINER

CERTIFIED TRAINER - AMANDA GREENE

Amanda started practicing GYROTONIC® in 2001 as part of a rehabilitation program after a car accident left her with herniated discs in the cervical and thoracic spine.

From the first session, the GYROTONIC® method produced profound changes to her body, and with regular sessions, Amanda fully recovered from her injuries and the associated chronic pain.

Since then, with her passion for the GYROTONIC® method, Amanda has trained around the globe (as both a client and instructor) with many of the top trainers, which has given her a deep understanding of the system and the learning and teaching experience. To further enhance her knowledge of special populations, she has also taken the rehabilitative course for the lumbar spine.

In 2007 FLEX was born, one of the very first studios in Barcelona to offer GYROTONIC® exercise.

Amanda has taught clients of all ages backgrounds and abilities. From couch potatoes and  computer-bound office workers to new mothers, gym junkies and weekend warriors, professional dancers, actors, musicians and athletes, and those with joint/back injuries, scoliosis, chronic pain and tension. All have experienced a marked improvement in their daily lives through regular practice of GYROTONIC® exercise.

Amanda loves working with people and seeing the positive changes that she helps to facilitate. Every client is unique, and teaching them is a creative and constantly evolving process. Her teaching style is down to earth, energising, and with an element of fun yet at the same time methodical so that as they move, clients understand what they´re doing and gain body awareness and develop mind-body connection.

Her goal is to make GYROTONIC® approachable, and for people to experience a way of moving that is natural, joyful and free from any restriction. 

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!
