Details:
This is a more advanced class offering endurance training to participants prepared for more strenuous activities. GYROKINESIS® exercises allow one to work on the entire body through seven natural elements of spinal movement: forward, backward, left side, right side, left twist, right twist and circular, as well as all other joint articulation.  This approach systematically and gently works the joints and muscles through rhythmic and undulating movements.
 
Fluidity is the key.  Postures are not held for long periods of time.  Instead, postures are smoothly and harmoniously connected through the use of breath, making exercises appear and feel more like a dance and swimming than like traditional yoga.

A typical
GYROKINESIS® class begins with participants practicing self-massage and simple breathing patterns.Then the spine and pelvis are engaged through the 7 spinal motions while sitting, standing and lying down. These same movement patterns are expanded to release the hip, knee, hamstring, quadriceps and so on, in all possible directions: front, back, twisting and turning.  The corresponding breathing patterns executed during every movement stimulate the nervous system, open up the energy pathways and oxygenate the blood. 
   
Those who practice GYROKINESIS® exercises tend to be more relaxed in their daily lives and can move with increased flexibility, postural strength and ease.
