About
I have been either studying movement, moving, or teaching movement most of my life. I was a Ballerina, taught Ballet and then studied Pilates. As a Romana Kryzanowska Certified Pilates instructor I opened essential movement® llc in 2003.
Several years ago, at the behest of my Rolfer, I began to add sporadic GYROTONIC® lessons into my routine. During the Pandemic, I made a practice of taking 2 or 3 Zoom GYROKINESIS® classes a week. I am thrilled by what GYROKINESIS® has done for me: I am more flexible, my scoliosis has diminished, and my strength feels integrated throughout my body. I was certified in GYROKINESIS® in 2021.
In 2025 I added to my certifications and became GYROTONIC® certified. essential movement now has an Ultima XS tower.
My personal experience inspired me to pursue adding this wonderful method to the essential movement® llc curriculum.
