GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®
The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®️ is a unique, holistic approach to movement incorporating a weights and pulley system.
The GYROTONIC®️ method is a unique system of exercise that offers similar benefits also derived from yoga, dance, gymnastics, swimming and t'ai chi. Central to this is the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®️. It increases joint mobility, particularly in the spine. It’s also known to help a multitude of lower back or cervical spine pain such as sciatica, repetitive strain injury, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis, and rheumatoid arthritis.
It works by simultaneously stretching and strengthening the body, increasing range of motion, correcting posture and developing coordination. Used as part of a regular exercise regime and it’s known to give users a stronger spine, improved posture, and bone density, strengthen joints, increase mobility, and balance neuro-muscular coordination.
The benefits of regular GYROTONIC®️ practice include a more supple and healthier spine, an increased range of motion, improved agility and athletic performance and deeper internal strength.
Will also help with the regeneration of the nervous system, helping to reduce stress. It will work differently for each individual, depending on their needs.

JUMPING-STRETCHING BOARD
The GYROTONIC®️ Jumping-Stretching Board exercise sequences comprise full body, functional movements that are performed in various positions including kneeling, lying, standing and sitting. It enables improved flexibility, coordination and core strength.A diverse range of standing exercises improve flexibility, coordination, and functional strength. The ergonomic, gliding platform allows users to experience running, and jumping in a low impact, horizontal plane, with the spine and pelvis fully supported, making it ideal for post injury exercise.
GYROKINESIS®️
The GYROKINESIS®️ Method is a practice that involves the entire body. It increases range of motion, stimulates the nervous system, opens energy pathways and creates functional strength through rhythmic movement sequences. Breathing and mental focus are key elements alongside the movement.
The GYROKINESIS®️ Method is practiced on a mat and chair without equipment. Without the feedback and guidance of equipment, participants in a GYROKINESIS®️ class are more dependent on their own proprioception to explore movement sequences.
Regularly performing GYROKINESIS®️ movements strengthens the muscles that support the spine, hips, and pelvis, while stabilising the shoulder girdle. All movements are done without impact and assist in strengthening muscles in the core, arms, and legs as well.
ASSESSMENT
Total body consultation including posture alignment analysis to create an individual, tailor-made therapeutic exercise program using the GYROTONIC® method.
- A 15-minute telecom consultation will take place prior to your private body session to discuss your goals, lifestyle, current activity, exercise and medical history.
- In studio, an analysis of postural alignment will provide insight into causes of issues including restricted movement, muscle pain and stiffness.
- In cases where there is a loss of flexibility or function following an injury or where there is a history of chronic pain or ongoing back, shoulder, hip, or pain in any area containing soft tissue, myofascial analysis can reveal particular patterns which affect the musculoskeletal system and cause postural imbalances.
- Once these patterns have been identified from the assessment, an individual tailor-made exercise program will be implemented to help correct alignment and postural issues, allowing for facilitated movement and improved physical performance.
