GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®

Smart Movement is very proud to announce that we are one of only 2 studios in Southern Ontario that offer Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis training.  This unique and complex training system combines muscular strengthening and stretching principles to create exercises that stimulate your body on multiple levels simultaneously.

The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® targets bodies that are imbalanced, tense, stressed, and burnt out.   It is highly recommended for lower back problems, post rehabilitation, anti-stress training, burn out syndrome prevention and rehabilitation, professional and recreational athletic performance training and working professionals looking for a unique way to center themselves and improve their body health.  GYROTONIC® revives the body by awakening its strength, stability, peacefulness, and the freedom of movement through seemingly effortless movements that are designed to increase your flexibility, co-ordination, stamina, spinal rotation, posture and muscular symmetry.

The Gyrotonic Expansion System improves physical fitness through:

• Better training efficiency
• Improved coordination
• Creating better balance within your body, specifically the spine and muscular system
• Increased strength of core postural muscles
• Greater range of motion
• Increased spinal flexibility

Gyrotonics strengthens the individual’s health through:

• Creating greater body awareness, most notably, biorhythm and nutrition
• Additional motivation in body formation and weight loss
• General body contentment and well-being

• Injury prevention
• Faster rehabilitation after illness or sport injury
• The constant resistance of the pulley enables these circularly intertwining exercises to produce a very challenging training.

Training with professionals makes a huge difference.  At our studio we guarantee that our clients are always guided and supervised by a trained instructor during all sessions.

Our studio also offers group training in GYROKINESIS®.  Gyrokinesis® sessions move your entire body through a series of exercises designed to improve and focus on the 7 natural elements of spinal movement: extension, flexion, side flexion, circular motion, spiral twist and spine rotation.  These exercises are low impact and designed to fit your lifestyle.  They require the participants to center themselves and engage mindfully with their own bodies while they perform the exercises.  In addition, it works to mobile the other joints within your body.  You will be trained to breath smart so that you can stimulate your internal organs and get a true full body workout.

Please note, that while our Gyrokinesis® Classes can be customized to the fitness level and lifestyle needs of each group; our advanced classes are more challenging than an advanced aerobics class.  Your body will move in ways that other types of exercise are not able to stretch it, this is why training with our experts make such a big difference.  They will prepare your body for the movements so you are safe and getting the most out of your workouts.
