There is no prerequisite to attend our GYROKINESIS® classes. All are welcome!MIND BODY Class SCHEDULER
GYROKINESIS® class uses the natural element of spinal movements through chair, floor and standing sequences, flowing from one movement to another. Each class progresses through seven types of spinal motions: forward, backward, left side, right side, left twist, right twist and circular. Rhythmic movements, systematic progressions, and specialized breathing patterns enhance your body’s fluidity and flexibility.
GYROKINESIS® was developed by Juliu Horvath. The motion concept includes the most important elements of yoga, dance and tai chi.
GYROKINESIS® systematically and gently trains joints and muscles by rhythmic wavelike movements. The spine is considered the central supporting element which gains new flexibility by harmonic wavelike, spiral and circular movements. The corresponding breathing patterns stimulate the nervous system and open up the body meridiens thus releasing waste products and toxic substances that can be taken away by the oxygen-enhanced bloodstream.
The flowing movement prevents static held-up positions and thereby superfluous body waste deposit and tensions.
The method stimulates energy in a natural way and helps to overcome listlessness and lethargy. The training is done in groups standing up as well as lying down. The complete training program is done without any training machines so the acquired exercises can be partially repeated at home or at work to relax the body from one-sided working positions.
People of all ages and different lifestyles benefit by this method, from therapy to high performance training for competitive athletes.

GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® provides an excellent workout that delivers results!

/in , , , , /by

video produced by Gyrotonic HQ
As far as fitness and health programs are concerned, the general rule of thumb is that the more effective the workout, the more difficult the program will be to begin. Oftentimes, people who are new to working out will try one of these difficult regimens in an attempt to achieve impressive results as fast as possible and then end up giving up on the routine because of its difficulty – sometimes even swearing off fitness altogether.

Conversely, the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® provides an excellent workout that delivers results and is entirely accessible by anyone. Furthermore, a regular fitness routine that includes GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® offers a number of health benefits that go far beyond a toned body. Because of all this, the the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® – exercise newcomer or seasoned athlete alike – looking to take their fitness up a level. The following are reasons why the mind-body workout method is so beneficial for everyone:

Increase Core Strength
Other than crunches or sit ups, most people don’t pay enough attention to the body’s core. This is particularly problematic since having a fit core helps achieve physical gains for the rest of the body as well. Most of the sets offered in GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® activate and strengthen the entire core, which ends up building confidence in practitioners.

Promotes Incredible Flexibility
People who are just starting out with the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® remark that they didn’t realize just how inflexible they are. This is doubly true for those who have a history of fitness under their belts as running and weight lifting, while great for their individual goals, end up tightening any joints that don’t get shown attention. GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® will get your entire body moving and reaching levels of flexibility you never thought would be possible.

Alignment Awareness
Along with being able to stretch and move your body better, the Gyrotonic system will enhance the way your bones work with each other. With this workout method, you will become more aware of the way that your skeletal system is aligned and make correcting posture or movement deficiencies an effortless task.

Reduces Risk of Injury and Joint Pain
By building both your flexibility and strength, GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS gives your body the capacity to participate in activities that you may have previously been afraid to do because of fear of injury or pain aggravation. Because of this great benefit, this body evolution system is often prescribed as an effective form of physical therapy. (If you’re a physical therapist or fitness instructor, you can also contact us for Gyrotonic teacher training in NYC and New Jersey.)

Surprisingly Relaxing
One of the most beneficial traits that comes with taking GYROTONIC® or GYROKINESIS® classes is that it relaxes people as they complete the workout session. The exercise program has its sets fluidly move from one into another in a rhythmic and circular pattern, which makes for an incredibly relaxing experience.

What is GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® exercise?
The Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis methods are complementary exercise methods that fall under one umbrella- the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®. Both methods were developed by Juliu Horvath, an ethnic Hungarian, professional dancer from Romania. Horvath suffered a series of debilitating injuries during his dance career, and began developing what are now known as the Gyrotonic® and Gyrokinesis Methods as a way to heal himself and regain his strength and agility. 

Gyrotonic exercises are performed on custom-designed Gyrotonic equipment, whereas Gyrokinesis exercises are performed on a mat and chair. Both Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis exercise sequences are composed of spiraling, circular movements, which flow together seamlessly in rhythmic repetitions, with corresponding breath. Each movement flows into the next, allowing the joints to move through a natural range of motion without jarring or compression. These carefully crafted sequences create balance, efficiency, strength and flexibility. 

Since the thirty plus years since Horvath began developing the Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis methods, the Gyrotonic Expansion System has grown to include a global community of over 7,800 Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis Trainers teaching in 52 countries.

GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® exercise methods moving as an expression of Life, at Raritan Valley Gyrotonic in New Jersey. rvgyrotonic.com

“The nature of things are … to move. 
Life is movement … and an expression of existence is movement. 
When something doesn’t move anymore that’s an expression of death. 
With 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.”

How Gyrotonic Helped this Tennis Player Regain His Body Confidence

/in , , /by

After playing competitive tennis at the University of Florida and then getting into cycling, Trevor Taylor had a rough accident that lead him to quit both sports completely. Though he maintained his fitness through weightlifting, he found that his body just wasn’t moving the way he needed it to when he made his way back to the tennis court, causing him even more injuries.

Taylor ended up having a number of surgeries and found himself at a Gyrotonic facility as part of his recovery. After training with the Gyrotonic Expansion System, his body went from stiff and off balance back to the athletic and agile form he once held.

Raritan Valley Gyrotonic Starts With the Basics: Focus on Breathing

/in , , /by

When people start up with a new workout regime, it can be a little intimidating. The great thing about the Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis methods and classes are that they focus on breathing and listening to your body. It takes the pressure off needing to lift a certain amount of weights, complete a certain amount of repetitions or beat a certain mile time.

The Raritan Valley Gyrotonic, clients come from all around New Jersey and even New York to experience the calm, serene atmosphere that welcomes guests whether they’re looking to ramp up their workout routine or are getting started for the first time. Many of our classes even cater to Baby Boomers concerned with their fitness.

No matter the fitness level, you’ll find that Gyrotonic classes will connect you to your body, and as you’ll see in the short video below, it all starts with breathing.

We invite you to participate in our Gyrotonic classes to get connected with yourself (mind and body) and get into better shape (mentally and physically). Check out our schedule to join a Gyrotonic fitness class, view our rates, give us a call at (908) 288-7551, or stop by the studio for more information on breathing techniques and workout methods.


Not a Fad, Gyrotonics is the Real Deal for a Healthy Lifestyle

/in /by

When people start raving about a new diet or revived fitness regimen, we as a society have grown rather thick skin when it comes to believing any of the claims. It’s actually a good thing though, since many of those prove to be fads. On the flip side though, the truly remarkable or worthwhile methods that do come out can take a while to gain traction or notoriety, especially if it doesn’t offer immediate results.

Any fitness buff or scholar will tell you though, slow progress is more sustainable than quick results, which is why many diets or regimens turn to fads. The ones that truly stand out or that have life-altering benefits are the ones which don’t attempt to be some kind of get-fit-quick scheme. And if you were wondering, the Gyrotonic Expansion System falls into the latter category; it’s the real deal.

Sure there has been a significant amount of hype surrounding Gyrotonics in NYC, but the buildup around it is actually well deserved. One thing that should be taken into account when determining if an exercise method (like the one that uses cutting edge Gyrotonic equipment) will offer real, lasting benefits is whether or not full-body health is an overall goal. Routines or fitness techniques that are sold as a way to get a sexy, fit, strong body in only “five minutes a day!” usually have a fine print of “results may vary” or “dieting required.”

Studies have shown that dieting makes up 80 percent of weight-loss – exercise only makes up the other 20 percent – so there’s no getting around eating healthy if losing weight is your goal. The thing with Gyrotonics though, is that healthy living as a whole is the overall focus. While the Gyrotonic exercises are great for the body and increase strength, flexibility and blood flow, each class also offers mental health benefits like relaxation. Because of the mental and physical benefits the Gyrotonic system offers, people who regularly attend classes will often begin to start making better nutritional decisions for themselves – bringing their health full-circle.

After experiencing the workouts offered by certified Gyrotonic trainers in NYC, there is absolutely no doubt that this is an excellent, solid and very real workout method. And since there’s still time to “get on the bandwagon” before it really takes off. What’s great about Gyrotonics, especially since it’s still a rather new workout method, is that your first few classes will probably be filled with beginners as well. Once you get the hang of it and become a real fan of the method – because we know you will – there are plenty of exercise variations and routines so you can continue to challenge your body.

Gyrotonics doesn’t make any hollow promises about getting get ripped or fit quickly, but it does offer a real, sustainable and enjoyable approach for gaining better health overall. If you want more about the benefits of the Gyrotonic or Gyrokinesis methods, give Raritan Valley Gyrotonics a call at (908) 288-7551, send them a message or stop by the studio. To get started on your journey to a more healthful lifestyle, schedule your first class today and start reaping the benefits.
