Gyrotonics

So here you have gyrotonics — silk reeling as a workout. This is also known as “yoga for dancers” although that seems a little redundant. If you look at the moves in this system and in the gyrokinesis system, you’ll see that they are basically doing silk reeling. They even have specialized machines to add to the range of movements that you can do.

What I find amazing about stuff like this is that they are doing movements with IMA body mechanics. These guys have stumbled across this stuff, and are taking the training into areas that we as martial artists should be pursuing.
