An exercise system that works the entire body through the natural elements of spinal movements.
The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®, is an exercise system that works the entire body through the natural elements of spinal movements: arch (forward) and curl (backward), sideways arch (left and right side bend), spiral (left and right twist) and circular. It is a unique system that simultaneously stretches and strengthens the body with minimal effort, while increasing range of motion by mobilizing and articulating the joints.
Using a series of patented exercise equipment, this system provides total freedom in movement, with no restriction to speed and versatility. The motion patterns are natural, turbulence free and pure with no interruption, emphasizing multiple joint articulation without compression.
The exercises are performed with either a rhythm or melodic rhythmical expression, creating a gentle or vigorous cardiovascular-aerobic stimulation, depending on the intensity and speed of the execution. It provides extraordinary flexibility and essential strength, culminating in an organic rejuvenation, increased vitality and vigor. The Gyrotonic Expansion System also focuses on increasing the functional capacity of the spine, resulting in a superior and well-proportioned body, which is significantly less prone to injuries.
“The nature of things is to move. Life is movement and an expression of existence is movement. When something doesn’t move anymore that’s an expression of death. In other words, something stagnating. Inside our bodies is the same situation: The more it moves the more expression of life. The less it moves the more expression is towards death.”
