I’m 83 and was referred by my daughter because I had pain (largely from poor posture). Doing Gyrotonics has largely eliminated my pain and improving my posture. I’m a runner and it’s helped my running! So grateful for Yelena and the modality!

I've been doing gyrotonic weekly with Yelena for almost ten years. It's made a huge difference. I have a long history of low back problems, with frequent spasms, but at this point, I can't remember the last time I had one.
