GYROKINESIS® FOUNDATION

A unique opportunity to train with Gyrokinesis Master Trainer Erika Hassan who will be visiting us from New York.

Erika met Juliu Horvath (creator of the GYROTONIC® & GYROKINESIS® Methods) in 1993 in New York City, where she had moved to study dance. 

At that time, her technique consisted mainly of equal parts force and desire, and she was extremely grateful to find a teacher who could guide her into the inner-workings of her own dance. 

She trained intensively with Juliu for the next 5 years in the Gyrotonic Expansion System. She went on to perform with Maureen Fleming, Jennifer Muller/The Works, Zen Companhia de Danca, Min Tanaka and Soulskin Dance Theater as well as to create her own solo work. 

From 2007-2013 she was Juliu Horvath's primary demonstrator and assistant in his courses. 

Erika is a Specialized Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis Master Trainer. She travels the world teaching workshops and trainings and creating her own dance.

The Foundation Course is a 9-day Teacher Training course (45 hours in total). In this course you will learn how to teach the GYROKINESIS® Method.
