Have you ever tried Gyrotonic?

Gyrotonic is a movement system that works out every part of your body. It cures once-and-for-all chronic body aches, strengthens muscles, rejuvenates senses, reduces stiffness, stretches, and realigns your spine and bones. You will find freedom, energy and a sense of self-empowerment like you never did before. Whether you are looking to workout intensely (sweat!), relax but tone (bliss!), do away with pain (freedom!), improve a golf swing (par!) or fix old injuries (heal!), the fully adjustable Gyrotonic machine offers a perfect way to achieve holistic health and harmony inside and out for all ages.

" Jireh is an amazing trainer, adapting her method with each students need, specificity and background. She guided me with a lot of patience, grace and gentleness. I was surprised to see that I could feel the result immediately after each series of movement. Feeling more relaxed and in tune with my body. My shoulders and legs were lighter, giving to my whole being a sense of freedom and renewed energy. I found in this practice a way of meditation through rythmic movements, following Jireh's instructions, in a space where time becomes art." Maika

About Jireh:

Miss Jireh Li is a Certified GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® Instructor and taught extensively in New York before moving her practice to Beijing. She has completed all levels of Certification with the GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® International Headquarters. She trained extensively with internationally renowned Authorized Masters Trainers Sebastian Plettenberg (GYROTONIC® Manhattan) and Erika Hassan in New York, Miami and Tokyo, as well as completed trainings in Hong Kong and Jakarta.

A Hong Kong native, she discovered Gyrotonic while working as an investment banker. Struggling with headaches, back and shoulder pains at the computer all the time, she practised Gyrotonic twice a week. When it only took 3 months to undo the pain and spinal damage (scoliosis) she lived with for 20 years, she realized that Gyrotonic’s holistic approach to health was very different from other exercises she tried, and found it a very effective and efficient method to rebalance, keep fit and stay strong in an enjoyable and effortless way.

About BodyChromatics

In essence, we use movement to help improve your quality of life. We choose to do it through Gyrotonic exercises because of its effectiveness - both immediately after class, and longer-term for holistic health. A session usually starts with gentle spinal movements followed by legwork. Exercises are done under the guidance of the teacher, as well as with the help of the Gyrotonic machine. The machine is fully adjustable for height, strength and ability, making it both safe and possible for even the most inflexible person to stretch out and workout. Each client's goals are discussed right from the start, because Jireh tailors every exercise to her client's specific needs. To learn more, please visit BodyChromatics.com.
