HISTORY OF GYROTONIC®

Julio Horvath was born in Romania in 1942 and arrived in the U.S. in 1970 as a professional dancer.
After his dancing career ended early with an injury, he combined his knowledge of dance, yoga, swimming, and tai chi to create “Yoga for Dancers”, or better known as GYROKINESIS®. He eventually built a machine that became the basis for the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®.

Dancers, athletes, and people with chronic conditions worldwide now flock to GYROTONIC® for its fitness and rehabilitative benefits.

Julio continues to develop and perfect both the method and the equipment.
