ANNA CIRIANO

GYROTONIC® & GYROKINESIS® Trainer

Based in London E14


So there are three things in life that really make me happy. Dancing, teaching and training with the GYROTONIC® method. And when I combine all three together I just feel fulfilled.

My name is Anna Ciriano, I am a professional ballet dancer with English National Ballet and have trained with the method GYROTONIC® Expansion System since 2010.

I started GYROTONIC® when I was 13 years old, recommended by a teacher for several hip injuries, my lack of flexibility and for ballet technique. With just a few months the results were that noticeable to me that the method became my medicine. Throughout the years, I not only became more flexible and gained joint mobility, but also my coordination, body awareness and technique improved and it helped me understand my body by working from within.

I am a Certified GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® trainer, and have been teaching these methods for 5 years. I am also specialised on the GYROTONIC® Jumping and Stretching Board machine as well as Pre and Post Pregnancy. I also have a Curriculum of teaching with American Ballet Theater and a Certificate of Progression Ballet Technique.

Helping other people feel better and achieve their goals means everything to me. I always consider myself to have began my career with a very difficult body and that I had to work hard to make it suitable for the career I wanted, and so I did. Thanks to all those teachers who gave me a bit of their knowledge to make ‘my unachievable dream’ a reality. So I just hope one day I’ll give you that piece of help that will get you closer to your hopes and dreams or simply make you feel better within yourself.

GYROTONIC®

GYROTONIC® is a unique method of whole-body movement that flows in circular and spiraling patterns, utilizing specialized equipment. Guiding, assisting and challenging the user, promoting strength, balance, flexibility, and efficiency of movement.

Unlike other types of training, GYROTONIC® relies on your natural mobility, allowing you to move through and beyond the full range of motion in your joints, without compression or restriction.

The history of GYROTONIC® dates back to the early 1980s. Juliu Horvath, a Romanian-born professional dancer, researched for years how to solve the physical pain he endured after a lifetime dedicated to classical dance. He explored yoga and meditation, eventually refining and adapting his work into what we now know as GYROKINESIS®. This method is accessible to everyone and begins with mat-based classes that transition from a stool to the floor and finally to a standing position.

Further years of research and exploration, led to the creation of the GYROTONIC® pulley tower, giving the method a more assistive and supportive approach.

Anna Ciriano Teaching

"GYROTONIC® is a beautiful discipline that helps being in tune with our bodies by awakening and discovering the deepest muscles and having those help us with movement coordination and correct posture. I cannot express enough the importance of GYROTONIC® for someone like me who has significant scoliosis and uses their body as a tool for my job as a ballet dancer.
