The GYROKINESIS® method is a movement modality that was created by Juliu Horvath as part of the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM®. Although current studies examining its efficacy are limited and with small numbers, the existing ones do repeatedly demonstrate reductions in back pain and fatigue along with improvements in proprioception, sleep, and mood. They are especially beneficial for hypermobile people because they train the necessary core stability that is often missed from poor body awareness when doing PT or yoga exercises. Gyrokinesis sessions are taught by a certified Gyrokinesis trainer with only a stool as necessary equipment.

Learning Objectives:
1. To introduce the Gyrokinesis method as a mindful movement modality suitable for residential eating disorder treatment
2. To demonstrate how Gyrokinesis movements improve core integration and proprioception in hypermobile people
3. To illustrate how repeated Gyrokinesis sessions can reduce fatigue and improve mood
