In essence this course is an exploration of GYROKINESIS® Movement through the lens of Laban Movement Analysis. This includes an introduction to Laban’s language of movement, Bartenieff Fundamentals®, the five Sacred Solids (sometimes called the Platonic Solids) and Laban’s movement scales with those 3-dimensional figures. We will handle models of the solids, draw them, build them, and move within them experiencing the dynamic affinities that give life to our Gyrokinesis practice.

Sacred Geometry and Gyrokinesis Movement is the result of a long lifetime (70+ years) exploring the expression of life into form. This course is an Update Course for Trainers licensed GYROKINESIS® Trainers.

About ClydeRae

I am a movement educator and manual therapist. Primarily a teacher of teachers and a continued serious student of movement and touch, I have in depth education and experience in the places where the senses of movement and touch meet. I love the inquiry, the careful thinking, questioning, re-evaluating journey with my colleagues, my teachers, and my students. I wend my way way, always striving for clarity, always listening, always giving credit.

GYROKINESIS®

The GYROKINESIS® Method is a movement method that addresses the entire body, opening energy pathways, stimulating the nervous system, increasing range of motion and creating functional strength through rhythmic, flowing movement sequences. It is an original and unique method, which coordinates movement, breath and mental focus. Exercises are done without equipment and is a great addition for anyone who would like to increase their range of motion and decrease tension in their bodies through stretch and strengthening movements. Watch this video on the benefits of GYROKINESIS.

GYROTONIC® Ventura offers GYROKINESIS classes every Saturday morning at 10 am in studio as well as on Zoom every Tuesday morning at 8 am and Friday morning at 10 am.  See below for a detailed list of classes.
