Gyrotonic: The Art of Exercising and Beyond

The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® is a holistic approach to movement that is designed to meet the needs of people of all ages and abilities. Juliu Horvath was a dancer who intensely studied tai chi, yoga, swimming, and gymnastics and then created exercises and equipment with similar benefits. Exercises are performed on a Pulley Tower, and the system is fully adjustable and can meet the needs of many people with varying body types and levels of strength. The even and constant resistance in the handle unit and pulley tower completely eliminates the jarring that takes place at the beginning and end of exercises performed on conventional exercise equipment, when many injuries occur. The circular, spiraling and undulating movements that characterize the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® help increase the functional capacity of the spine and three-dimensional awareness.
