THE GYROTONIC
EXPANSION SYSTEM® has two components. There is the
original mat work which is called GYROKINESIS® and the work performed with
equipment called GYROTONIC® To view clips of
GYROTONIC in the media and footage of Juliu discussing his
technique follow this link.
THE GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® was created by Juliu Horvath, a Hungarian who was born and raised in Romania. In the 1970’s Juliu danced with the New York City Opera Ballet and then became a principal dancer in the Houston ballet. However, his dancing career was cut short when he injured his Achille's tendon. After a period of intense personal exploration and the study of other therapeutic modalities, Juliu developed this new and unique exercise system.
THE GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® is similar to Yoga in the postures, similar to Pilates with the focus on the core, and similar to Tai Chi in the way one moves and generates energy in the body.
In GXS® movements flow uninterrupted without a beginning or an end. The movement pattern is three-dimensional and travels in Spiral or circular paths, rather than the two-dimensional patterns of traditional exercise techniques.

GYROTONIC®
EQUIPMENT
was originally
developed as a supplement to the mat work. The most commonly used
piece is The
Pulley Tower. To see footage of the Pulley tower
in action click on this link.
Because the Tower is designed around the human body, it allows freedom of movement and maximum versatility to enhance coordination, strength and flexibility.
The consistent resistance, (through the triple reduction in the pulleys), completely eliminates the jarring that takes place at the beginning and end of exercises performed on conventional exercise equipment, when many injuries occur.
There are many more pieces of equipment and they are all designed to help the individual access deeper and deeper layers of strength and flexibility. For more information on GYROTONIC® visit www.gyrotonic.com
