The GYROTONIC® method in Gunbarrel, CO.
The Method
KOMO Studio is a home studio offering private, personalized classes in the Gyrotonic and pilates methods.
Gyrotonic is characterized by fluid, circular movements of the body and a flowing choreography that synchronizes movement and breathing. It strengthens the body while increasing range of motion and flexibility. It benefits both the physical and nervous systems.
Pilates strengthens the body through its emphasis on core control and precise muscular engagement. The incorporation of Pilates into a Gyrotonic practice improves core activation and stabilization as the body moves through its full range of motion.
Classes at KOMO are tailored to the individual and suitable for all bodies and abilities. They can benefit anyone looking to restore or improve strength, mobility, physical coordination, and nervous system health.
Our clients range from elderly people wanting to improve balance and increase bone density, to people working to restore range of motion and strength post-surgery, to athletes looking for athletic conditioning and to actively stretch and unwind their bodies post training.
The Studio
Gyrotonic equipment provides both resistance and support to the practitioner. KOMO Studio is equipped with the Ultima® XS, the latest Gyrotonic tower on the market. Its adjustable handle unit accommodates a wider range of body types and allows for a greater range of standing exercises. This is particularly beneficial for those for whom sitting creates discomfort in the spine, or who are looking for a more dynamic session.
KOMO offers Gyrotonic and GYROTONER® exercises on the Ultima® XS, stool- and mat-based GYROKINESIS®, as well as mat-based pilates.
