Services
A movement system comprised of two modalities - the Gyrotonic & the Gyrokinesis methods.
Both methods aim to lengthen and strengthen the entire body while decompressing the spine and other joints.
The circular, flowing movements enhance mobility, posture, strength and resilience, and provide an overall sense of well-being.
The Gyrotonic method uses specialized equipment to assist the body, while the Gyrokinesis method is simply done on a stool and a mat.

Colleen believes life's challenges offer us the greatest opportunities.
Pain, as unfortunate as it may sound, is a great motivator and Colleen loves to guide clients away from pain and discomfort and towards, not only pain-free movement, but towards experiencing the JOY of movement.
She can adapt her teaching to the most therapeutic of needs or to the most elite of athletes/dancers to help her students reach their individual goals.
Her specialty is teaching therapeutic exercise and restorative movement that takes students on a journey through their body where they learn how to be knowledgable and empowered enough to make deep changes in their movement, sports/activities, and overall well-being.
