How does Pilates compare to GYROTONIC®?
Pilates is described as a more 2-dimensional approach to movement, i.e. up & down, open & close, flex & extend, while GYROTONIC® can be described as more 3-dimensional incorporating spirals and circular movements. Both techniques lengthen the muscles while strengthening the joints with an emphasis on movement fluidity and integration of breath. Each uses specialized equipment to support and guide you towards the desired focus.
