What do people have to say about bodySpan?

"Gyrotonics quickly became the most effective aspect of my training. Weekly, Deborah skillfully teaches me body awareness and neuromuscular control and strengthening of the core while integrating rotational movement. Every week I discover improvements in how I can move my body. I know that Gyrotonics is an investment for me because I am gaining so much. Deborah has proven to me that fitness is more than how you look - it is how you move your body."
- Lynn, Occupational Therapist, Boulder

"Since doing Gyrotonic with Deb I have become more aware of my body's alignment (and misalignments!) and where I hold tension. This awareness has allowed me to be able to correct my posture while engaging in other sports and activities. I feel great after each Gyro session and look and feel about 6" taller."
- Livia Hall, L.Ac. acupunctureWorks, Boulder

"As a dancer I knew of Gyrotonic and I always wanted to try it. When I met Deborah I took the chance to start with it. And I guess, I will never stop again. Gyrotonic gives me so much - on all levels. After a session I have got a good workout for my mucsles, I feel relaxed in my mind and well-balanced. I do greatly appreciate the strengthening of my body in a combination with stretch and circular movements. I strongly believe that this has a huge positive impact on overall health. Gyrotonic gives me strength for all my activities, dancing, cycling, swimming. Since I strengthen my muscles with it I feel like a power ball. I have much more power in my legs, torso and upper body. Deborah has a sharp eye to give the right corrections at the right time. Soon your body feels aligned like never before. Also, she creates a setting where you can just let go and enjoy yourself. Music in the background, good essences in the air... I am returning to Europe and will miss bodySpan Studio and Deb a lot! But Gyrotonic will accompaign me whereever I go! Thanks, Deb, for a great time!"
- Andrea Schärli, Boulder

"In the few short months that I have been doing weekly Gyrotonic sessions, I have seen more effect on my body (strength, flexibility and especially alignment) than I felt in the entire 5 years I studied shao-lin kung fu. Injuries that plagued me through all my kung fu training, such as a weak ankle, have all but disappeared."
- Zach Boyd-James, Boulder

"Gyrotonic helps me live an active life without aches, pains and injuries from sports and physical labor. Gyrotonic works because it naturally develops greater range of motion using counter weighted circular exercises. Deborah McBride, at bodySpan, is a highly intelligent expert in teaching correct form of the exercises. I totally enjoy the benefits of Gyro 100%!"
- David, Boulder

"Gyrotonic has made a big difference in my day-to-day life. I began it as cross-training for dressage and I soon saw a tremendous improvement in my riding. However, after my horse sustained an injury so that I stopped riding, I continued with Gyrotonic with Deb. I have not only increased both awareness and strength in my body; I have truly come to enjoy Gyrotonic. I feel that it has really helped me in being more physically and mentally aware of myself."
- Marissa, Longmont

"With Gyrotonic I finally found a form of movement that I enjoyed."
- Sandra, Boulder

"Working with Deb is amazing! Her steady, enthusiastic, creative personality coupled with an amazing awareness of my body's needs ensures that each time I finish a session I feel fantastic."
- Roberta, Boulder

"In Pilates I had something of a chronic problem of using just my arms and legs and not engaging my core. Deb's system helps you connect to the core and learn how to use it."
- Brooke, Boulder

"My muscles always feel stretched and warm after doing Gyrotonic. It has helped me with dancing and just everyday movements like walking around."
- Emily, Boulder

Carolyn Wentworth, Frasier Meadows Retirement Community resident, has participated in Gyrokinesis class for six years. "As that 10 a.m. yoga class approaches, I look forward to going; and I feel better after I've done it," she says. She feels it helps mobility in every part of her body, and also helps with her balance.

Eula Redenbaugh, Frasier Meadows Retirement Community resident, has had two years in the Gyrokinesis seated yoga class. For her, the exercise works up energy and helps with balance. She especially likes standing at the bar to exercise. "Sometimes on my tippy toes, it feels like dancing," she smiles.

"I'm getting older, and playing sports is not as easy as it used to be. I find my back getting really stiff, for example. I've found that regular Gyrotonic workouts at bodySpan keep me limber and less prone to injury."
- Gary, Boulder
