A good read, gaining better understanding of movement
Written by - Maria Holm
We are all very interested and happy to move and exercise, to feel good and better in our bodies.
We do it using the GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® Methods in our studio. To fully utilize all of what we know and learn about our bodies, we might find an even better understanding by supplementing our movement practice with a good book or two.
To read, think and discuss around ideas, learning more about anatomy, breathing and movement, might take us even further.
Here is a reading list for anyone who is curious, and wants to learn more. A complement to any movement/exercise routine and practice, or by themselves as a good read.
A few books from my reading list:
The Art of Exercising and Beyond by Juliu Horwath, the creator and inventor of the GYROTONIC® system, ($25 in the studio)
Anatomy Coloring Book, by Wynn Kapit & Lawrence M Elson
Anatomy of Movement, by Blandine Calais-Germain
Anatomy of the Spirit by Caroline Myss
The Psoas Book, by Liz Coch
Anatomy Trains, by Thomas M Meyer
Ways to Better Breathing, by Carola Speads
