What is the difference between Pilates and GYROTONIC?
Pilates and GYROTONIC are each complete systems of mind-body movement. Pilates is more linear and focuses on core strength, building long muscles that are flexible as well as toned, and proper body mechanics and alignment. GYROTONIC is three-dimensional and circular. It too strengthens the body’s core muscles from the inside out. However, there is more focus on moving from a strong connection to the body’s energy centers and then trying to ‘free’ the body. GYROTONIC develops increased functional strength and flexibilty, while developing coordination, neuromuscular control, and re-shaping the entire body.
