"Practice your yoga and all is coming." - Sri K. Pattabhi Jois
Completing most of her training in Germany, Gyrotonic Method has been a adventure_filled endeavor for her since she began her training in 2011. Training in California, Germany, Australia and now in Bali has been a most rewarding experience. She is also certified in The Gyrokinesis® Method as of 2017. Rachel revels in sharing her joy for movement with all.
Gyrotonic exercise has become more than a movement modality for Rachel. She believes that the spiraling & graceful way of flowing is her secret to success & happiness. She receives so much joy & fulfillment from sharing this system of movement with all her clients, family & friends. Her most excitement comes when she witnesses the transformation that takes place in each person after their first session.
Rachel is also very dedicated to teaching & preparing pupils to enter into the Gyrotonic® teacher training journey themselves & is currently very proud to open her first studio in Nosara, Costa Rica “GYROTONIC® Nosara” as she begins Gyrotonic career as a pre-trainer.
Rachel has recently completed 3 Levels & all the various equipment teacher training programs by BALANCED BODY PILATES under the guidance & supervision of Sook Fun Chen, Movement Matters in Bali.
A pilates studio, “Paradise Pilates” is now available on the premises as well as Gyrotonic Nosara. Pilates has offered her a wonderful way to dive deeper into the world of anatomy and has refined her skills in teaching movement overall. Core engagement and body alignment is of utmost priority and at the forefront of her teaching focus. Together Gyrotonic exercise, Pilates & Yoga have enriched & enlivened her life beyond her dreams. She is very pleased to share these gifts with all whom are ready & willing.
