The GYROTONIC® Applications for Equestrians Course is for Certified GYROTONIC® Instructors who wish to work more effectively with an equestrian clientele. Over three intensive days, we will practice doing and teaching GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® exercises off the horse that will help horse riders perform better when mounted. These are exercises that can ultimately improve the way riders communicate with their horses and help keep their bodies healthy for riding. Attendees will learn about common riding goals and pitfalls, and how to design private sessions and classes to address them.
All Certified GYROTONIC® Instructors are welcome. A familiarity with horse-riding is a plus, but it is not a requirement to attend the course. All participants will receive a course manual. This course is approved by Juliu Horvath as a Certified Trainer Update course.
“My biggest reward is not a championship ribbon but my owner’s working with Michelle Spinner of Kinected Studios in New York City. Michelle’s equestrian experience has been extraordinarily helpful in keeping my ‘man’ limber and relaxed while on my back and letting me do my job. His hands are quiet, his legs are still, and his secure and comfortable seat and strong and supple core make for creating a great team.”
“Working with Michelle has improved my alignment when I ride. She has helped me understand my own musculature in a truly functional way, enabling me to increase my mobility and stability for riding. She has given me tools off the horse that I have been able to apply when mounted to achieve a steady sitting trot and a deep seat at the center. She has taken the mystery out of getting and keeping my hip flexors open, my shoulder blades down, my shoulders level, and my heels down.
Michelle is very patient and understands that it takes a student time to undo bad habits and learn new and better ones. She draws from her knowledge of multiple disciplines to find the best approaches for her students to make the changes they seek. Michelle is able to explain things in different ways to help the novice student better grasp the biomechanics of the human and the equine and their dance together.”
