The GYROKINESIS® Method is a movement modality that addresses the entire body - opening energy pathways, stimulating the nervous system, increasing range of motion, and creating functional strength through rhythmic, flowing movement sequences. It is an original and unique method that coordinates movement, breath, and mental focus. The GYROKINESIS® Method is practiced on a mat and chair without equipment and is adaptable for all bodies and movement capabilities.
