Review - Kinespirit
Whole Fitness, August, 2009

Just returned from my first trip to Kinespirit at their Madison Park location. And I have only good things to say. At Kinespirit, you can take pilates, but I took a Gyrokinesis class.

It is similar to Pilates in control, breath, range of motion and balance. Unlike (some) Pilates, there is a flow so you keep moving (seriously) the whole time. Takes a good amount of coordination and mind-body awareness - and is ultimately really fun. Lots of circling and moving through a neutral (or fully extended back) and a tucked under position. Gyrotonic is done on a tower, while in Gyrokinesis you are working on a stool and a mat.

Great front desk, beautiful studio and seemingly nice clientele. I took Tuesday's 12:30 open Gryokinesis class. Unfortunately I forget the teachers name - but she was great (It was Uli!).

This is my first Gyro class and I loved it - it sneaks up on your how difficult it really is. It feels like a combination of Yoga and Pilates in a way that doesn't make sense until you do it.

Definitely check out Kinespirit!
