This is a Master Class in GYROKINESIS® on July 18h from 6:30-8:00pm.

The GYROKINESIS® Method is a movement method  that  addresses the entire body,  opening energy pathways, stimulation the nervous system, increasing range of motion and creating functional strength through rhythmic, flowing movement sequences.

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.

GYROKINESIS® classes can be adapted to fit anyone's ability. People from all walks of life take Gyrokinesis classes, including accomplished athletes, fitness enthusiasts, senior citizens and people recovering from an injury or dealing with a disability. By the end of a Gyrokinesis session, one's entire system is awakened and brought into greater balance. Focus on the breath stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system resulting in a sense of calm, well-being and mental clarity.

This Master Class Series in GYROKINESIS® is facilitated by:
