• Move to equipment, often known as the “tower.” You may do a series of movements including arch and curl, hamstrings, upper body and abdominals.,
• Relaxation and unwinding. Now off the equipment, you will be led through slow spiraling movements and breathing patterns to promote centering of the mind, body and spirit.

GYROKINESIS® is a mat-only workout that uses rhythmic and undulating movements that stimulate the body’s internal organs.

Fluidity is maintained throughout as postures are smoothly connected through the use of breath rather then held for long periods of time.

Seven natural elements of spinal movement are used to work on the entire body: forward, backward, left side, right side, left twist, right twist and circular, as well as all other joint articulation.
