On Tuesday, 20 August, from 1 PM to 2 PM, RSGC hosted its first Gyrokinesis demo at the Multipurpose Hall, attracting a total of 23 participants. This session provided Members with a unique opportunity to explore the benefits of Gyrokinesis, a movement method focused on improving flexibility, strength, and coordination through fluid movements and breathwork.
As the clock approached 1 PM, attendees gathered in the chilly Multipurpose Hall, eagerly anticipating the start of the session. After taking attendance, the instructor, Grace, an experienced practitioner of Gyrokinesis, welcomed the group with a warm and informative introduction. She provided a brief overview of the origins of Gyrokinesis, highlighting its numerous benefits, including enhanced spinal mobility, improved posture, and increased overall body awareness. The participants listened attentively, excited and intrigued to immerse themselves in this new and transformative movement practice.
The session started with gentle warm-ups, allowing everyone to ease into the flow of the exercises. Grace guided the group through a series of rhythmic movements, focusing on spinal motions. The participants moved gracefully from one pose to another, enjoying the smooth transitions and coordinated breathing techniques.
As the class progressed, the movements became more dynamic, engaging the entire body. Grace’s clear instructions and supportive demeanour helped participants stay aligned and engaged. Her calming yet focused approach allowed everyone to feel comfortable, regardless of their lack of experience. Participants learned to synchronize their breathing with their movements, a core principle of Gyrokinesis, enhancing the mindbody connection.
By the end of the hour-long demo, participants felt rejuvenated and aware of the subtle yet powerful effects of Gyrokinesis. Grace concluded the session by encouraging everyone to practice the techniques regularly, reinforcing the benefits they had just experienced.
The overall response was overwhelmingly positive. Many participants expressed interest in continuing their practice and exploring further classes. Given the success of the demo and the enthusiasm shown, RSGC is considering implementing Gyrokinesis as a permanent lesson offering in the near future. We encourage Members to stay tuned for updates and future class schedules!
