Gyrokinesis Mat - ALL LEVELS

Gyrokinesis is a movement method created by dancer, Juliu Horvath that uses rhythmic flowing sequences of spiraling, circular movements to stimulate the nervous system, open energetic pathways and increase range of motion. Practiced on a stool and mat without equipment, the method coordinates movement, breath and mental focus to build functional strength, improve posture, balance and mobility. Classes are adaptable for all ages and fitness levels and are inspired by elements of dance, swimming, Tai Chi and yoga. Sheila Bellefleur is the founder of Casco Bay Movers Dance Co. and School in Portland Maine. She has enjoyed an international career as a dance educator and choreographer. Her commitment as a movement scientist is to explore neuromuscular movement pathways supported with breath which enhance mobility, balance, coordination, vitality and harmony with gravity - resulting in stress reduction, improved posture, health and healing. Sheila is currently enrolled as an apprentice in the Gyrokinesis Teacher Training Program and is excited to share this dynamic workout!
