Description & Gyrotonic^® Policies

The training acquired by the student in the Foundation Teacher Training Course is used by Gyrotonic Trainers worldwide in therapeutic, dance, alternative health, and sports related facilities.

Purpose

Through this Course, Master Trainers introduce teaching techniques and principals underlying the Exercise Syllabus Level 1, as taught on the Pulley-Tower Combination Unit. The student learns to conceive of and prepare individual Gyrotonic Training Programs.

Prerequisites

The student must present to the Master Trainer the Pre-Training Qualification Agreement that has been signed by both the Pre-Trainer and the student in order to gain entry into the Course. The Master Trainer reserves the right to refuse a student entry into any Foundation Training Course if the Master Trainer assesses that the student is not ready or prepared for the Course.

Foundation Teacher Training Course Instructor

Only Certified Gyrotonic Master Trainers who keep their Certificate in good standing can teach The Foundation Teacher Training Course.

General Content

The student learns in supervised groups, taking the role of student and teacher alternately to facilitate the learning process. The methodology is taught through verbal instruction and physical guidance of a moving person, reinforcing the correct execution of breathing patterns synchronized with the corresponding movements. The student will learn how to execute these breathing patterns and corresponding movements in her or his own body, and will also learn, as teacher, how to physically guide another student in the execution of the exercises. All exercises will be taught based on the Foundation Level 1 Syllabus and Manual.
