The GYROTONIC® Archway - Test your relationship with gravity
History of the GYROTONIC® Equipment with Creator Juliu Horvath - GYROTONIC® A history on the origins and inspiration behind the equipment used in the GYROTONIC® Methods, told from founder and creator Juliu Horvath.
În 1918, când gripa spaniolă facea victime, Joseph Pilates a observat că niciunul dintre cei care s-au antrenat în formațiunea sa fizică nu a fost infectat.
Astăzi, nu am văzut nicio reclamă la tv sau în media despre mâncare sănătoasă, hrană și apă vie, schimbarea stilului de viață, gândire pozitivă, meditatie, mișcare(orice tip de activitate fizică) și stare de bine în general.
Se închid sălile de sport, suntem forțați să respirăm într-o mască, ne închid în case în media se vorbește doar despre boală și moarte...exact opusul a ceea ce un corp sănătos are nevoie ca să rămână sănătos și să trăiască în armonie.
Într-o eră a ipohondriei și a panicii absolute, soluția este autoeducarea minții pentru prevenirea bolilor și a bunăstării psiho-fizică.

Love this!
from a year or so. After a typical Saekson’s Muay Thai class,
Champion fighter and teammate wanted to see what it is that I do. So I gave him a basic Pilates lesson for the first time. Notice I kept the directions very clear and simple. I made sure not to over teach and most importantly I kept him moving!!!

When we look at this image, we see strength with flexibility and full body strength and coordination. In other words, truly functional movement. How about you, what do you see?

Peace. Love. Pilates 🕊☮️♥️
GoneGratz...please meet Palermo Pilates. This is there GoneGratz story... My pilates journey began with the best of intentions in a “contemporary” way. The deeper I delve, the more questions arose. At a certain point I asked myself, “shouldn’t I know the origins of the work, before I try to modify?”
As it was for the method, so was it for the equipment! Once I began to learn the original method, the only equipment that made sense was the original equipment-Gratz!
Have you ever wondered about the history behind the equipment used in the GYROTONIC® method? We sat down with Juliu Horvath, founder and creator of the GYROTONIC® method, to hear the story from him. It's one filled with resourcefulness, inspiration, and ingenuity.
Enjoy episode 1 and stay tuned as we'll be releasing several videos over the next week that tell all the pieces and parts of the story.
Last year....I was there and I can’t wait to go back....one day.
Day 7, last day of Juliu Horvath's 2018 GYROKINESIS® Rejuvenation Course. It's been a wonderful time of sharing and moving together with trainers from around the world. May the joy and inspiration continue to shine through you all in your teaching and your living!

THE HAMSTRING SERIES!🦵 Why is it so great? You know, besides feeling wonderful: in addition to the benefits to the lower extremities that will be discussed below, the "tractioning" lengthens your back and hip flexors, wonderfully decompressing the lumbar vertebrae.
What we practice in this series is eccentrically contracting the hamstrings and connecting our movements to our core via our breath.🌬️ Why is this so important?🤔
Eccentric muscle contraction occurs when the muscle is controlling the weight and motion of a limb while moving into a lengthened state. The hamstrings are required to work eccentrically during walking and
running.
Additionally, the speed of the contraction matters in that fast eccentric contractions produce more force than slow eccentrics. Dysfunction of the hamstrings limits the ability to work eccentrically and is thought to contribute to overuse injuries to this area.
Due to eccentric demands on the hamstrings, eccentric training is a crucial part of rehabilitation in a hamstring injury, especially for athletes. Training eccentrically has been shown to enhance muscle hypertrophy, strength, normalize tendon tructure
and improve ability to return to sport after injury. This explanation is taken from Kirsten Heath's article, "Hamstring Pain? Try Some Eccentric Training!" at www.vighettipt.com

NOTE: This is a MODIFIED series of the Airplane Board exercises (filmed at the request of a fellow Pilates teacher) shown with my arms down due to a scapular issue preventing me from having my hands back against the poles.
❌ This video is not instructional and these exercises should not be practiced unless you know they are safe for your body.
Many of these are adaptations of exercises found elsewhere in the system. Always know the WHY before giving an exercise.
❌ Because the feet are not able to pronate & supinate (roll in/roll out) when they are in the Airplane Board straps, the majority of these (in particular the lateral movements) should NOT be practiced if you have any knee issues whatsoever!
➡️Airplane Board is mostly used with the Leg Springs and hands on upright poles with arms at 90 degrees or straight.
➡️To compensate for not having the uprights to press into, I have my springs attached to the lower Caddy hooks to lessen the resistance.
➡️Along with Short Spine Massage, Long Spine Massage and the eponymous Airplane ✈️ exercise and its variations, much of this series Im showing can also be done in the air at an approximate 45 degree angle off the Caddy bed. (You’ll see me make a go at lifting but the arm position and injury made it awkward.)
👆As I am hypermobile in my knees you’ll notice I keep them unlocked throughout to drive the work into my hamstrings and glutes.
👉Airplane Board differs from regular Leg Springs by connecting the legs and kinetic chain so side to side imbalances can be easily detected.
💪 The Airplane Board fantastic for working the body’s back line and strengthening hamstrings and glutes in parallel. (Great for those - like me - who overly externally rotate their thighs from their glutes.)

We love a good throwback and wanted to share these images of Juliu and a bit of history with you. Prior to creating The GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® Methods, Juliu Horvath had an impressive dance career filling principle roles in the Romanian State Opera, New York City Opera, at Radio City Music Hall, and the Houston Ballet. When he ruptured his achilles tendon, it brought his dance career to a sudden halt.
In the late 1970's, Juliu moved to St. Thomas and built a small hut by hand. He started meditating more intensively and began his own movement exploration based on intuition, observations of nature, and his personal experiences. It was during this time over the course of several years that he developed a system he called 'Yoga for Dancers', which later evolved into The GYROKINESIS® Method. These images show a young Juliu in St. Thomas, practicing Yoga for Dancers.
Beautiful back work and strength 😍
