What is GYROTONIC® Method?
GYROTONIC® exercise method is a type of exercise and movement therapy that emphasises the use of circular and spiralling movements to enhance flexibility, strength, and coordination. The goal of GYROTONIC® exercise is to improve overall physical fitness, while reducing stress and tension in the body. With GYROTONIC® exercise, you'll explore new ways of moving that will leave you feeling more flexible, energized, and empowered.
In short:
-
Uses specialized equipment with adjustable resistance via weighted pulleys
-
Movements are three-dimensional, circular, and flowing — designed to work in harmony to achieve balance with the equipment's resistance.
-
Because of the equipment, it allows for very precise support, resistance, and assistance tailored to each person's body — great for building strength, spinal mobility, and joint articulation with control.
-
Practise on one-on-one session or in small groups, often in a specialised studio like Nautilus
02
The GYROKINESIS® Method is developed by Juliu Horvath, the same person who created the GYROTONIC® Method. This method does not use any specialised equipment. Instead, it focuses on movement from the inside-out. GYROKINESIS® exercise can be practiced both alone and in a group setting with a teacher guiding you the movement class.
In short:
-
The "mat-based" counterpart of the GYROTONIC® Method— no specialised equipment needed, just a chair, mat, and some open space.
-
Follows the same principles (spinal movement, breath, rhythm, flow) but is self-supported rather than equipment-assisted.
-
More accessible for group classes and of course could be practised during one-on-one session

03
What are the differences? The GYROTONIC® Method or the GYROKINESIS® Method? Try which one first?
Think of GYROKINESIS® as the foundational, equipment-free practice — great for daily practice, groups, and building body awareness — while GYROTONIC® Method takes those same movement principles and adds equipment to provide more targeted resistance, support, and precision for individualised training.
Many clients actually do both, since they complement each other well — GYROKINESIS® Method deepens body awareness and can be done anywhere, while GYROTONIC® Method builds on that foundation with more targeted, supported work.
04
Good for newbies?
Yes, both methods are good for anyone who wants to experience freedom in movement. Any physical capability and any fitness level. Do let us know you physical conditions and movement goals prior to the class, we will match you with the best trainer and tailor the class suitable for your needs.
Movement, is for everyone :)
Session runs 55 minutes but we can tailored to your needs say 1.5 or 2 hours — but your work doesn't stop there. You may leave with tailored follow up movement sequences to practice at home before we meet again.

How long is each session?
06
I have no experience in GYROTONIC® or
GYROKINESIS® training.
Can I come for group class?
For multi level group classes, clients are recommened to attend a private 1 to 1 trial class with our trainers or senior trainers. It is important for you to understand the basic movements and benefit from the flowing movement sequences during subsequent group classes.
Comfortable clothing — nothing too baggy or too tight to allow the ease of movement flow. Socks — with or without grip, may be try some toes socks to help you ground and open the sole.
An open mind — you're about to move in ways your body didn't know it could. Try not to overthink it, just flow. A sense of humor — you will wobble, you might giggle, and that's all part of the process. Curiosity, not expectations — leave your yoga mat and gym mentality at the door.
This is its own beautiful, spiraling world.
