TAUGHT BY MASTER TRAINER, ABEL HORVATH

"The course material represents my approach towards a most effective use of the Gyrotonic method. Roughly that incorporates:

• a different progression of exercises compared to level 1

• additional / new exercises 

• new details to some known exercises

• overall reinforcement of the Gyrotonic principles in a most effective and accessible way

• overall build up and timing of a workout, transitioning from relaxation / release to mobilization / restructuring to the more fitness oriented exercises

The material can be selected accordingly to be suitable for the first class with a beginner, as well as to create a fulfilling workout for a well trained person."

In this course, students will be guided through a series of exercises on the Gyrotonic Pulley Tower, exploring additional ways of accessing the depths of their structure. Exercise sequences will gradually progress from warm-up and preparation exercises to mobilizing, restructuring, and strengthening exercises. There will be time for learning the details while experimenting with exercise intensity. Each participant will be seen as an individual on his/her own unique journey, according to his/her abilities, and goals – “the Extremes” is a relative term.

The material presented in this course will further enhance one’s experience with the Gyrotonic Method, benefitting Trainers, as well as their clients. A workout following these sequences will leave students feeling balanced, strong, and grounded.

March 9th -12th

This course intends to bring a conscious experience of the core connections to the 3-dimensional body understanding how to artfully activate it to create efficient movement.

It will focus on the kinesthetic application of the Gyrotonic principles to specifically adapted movement sequences from the methodology, i.e. focus on “feeling” whilst also presenting functional anatomy and neuro-muscular principles such as synergy, intensity, and timing via article references, photos, and video clips. With practice during the 3 days, the “thinking” enhances yet takes a back seat to the “feeling.”

Only when you really feel the application of the Gyrotonic Principles in your system is it possible to convey the Method to our clients in the way it was intended.

There is a one-day, $150 drop-in, for the first day of her Dynamic Trunk Stabilization course open to anyone: clients, movement professionals, and teachers.

TAUGHT BY MIKE LUQUE

The Wingmaster is an excellent tool for training clients at every level. For clients who are in a rehabilitative or corrective setting, the Wingmaster is an excellent tool for increasing strength through all the spinal ranges of motion. The ergonomic shape helps people with shoulder or chest limitations to add resistance without strain. But that doesn't mean the Wingmaster's usefulness is limited to corrective work.

The Wingmaster is a brilliant and very underutilized piece of GYROTONIC® equipment that often spends more time as a fascinating decoration on a studio's wall than on our client’s bodies... or in their hands

All the favorite and familiar Gyrotonic movements are utilized: arch, curl, side bends, and spirals. Standing, squatting, and lunging positions are added. New ways to attach the Wingmaster to the tower open up greater possibilities for movement.

This course fulfills the Gyrotonic Trainer CEC (update) requirement allowing one to renew a Gyrotonic license. If a student is both a Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis Trainer, he/she is eligible to renew both trademark licenses after taking this course.
