The GYROTONIC® exercise method was developed by Juliu Horvath in the mid-1970s. The technique focuses on improving agility and strength through circular movements that help maximize range of motion.
At its core, the GYROTONIC® Method hinges on four key principles: intention, stabilization, decompression and coordination.
With GYROTONIC® exercises, major muscle groups are worked interdependently and in an integrated manner in order to increase range of motion and develop coordination. The movements of GYROTONIC® exercises are performed with spherical awareness and circularity, unlike the movements of most conventional exercises, where linear or isolated movement patterns are performed.
The fluid, circular, spiraling, and undulating movements that are the hallmark of the discipline are primarily done using equipment. The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® equipment includes: The Pulley Tower, The Archway, The Leg Extension Unit, The Jumping Stretching Board, and the GYROTONER®.
Locomotion Studio offers you the full range of GYROTONIC® equipment to enhance the process of building coordination, strength, and flexibility.
