The Movement Temple — Local services in Albuquerque

I have been fortunate enough to work with Amanda for a few years. I started working with her after a knee and ankle injury I sustained from gymnastics. I had definitely bearing full weight on my knee walking down stairs amongst other issues. Working with Amanda through the Gyrotonics system I discovered the reason why I suffered the injury in the first place. I understood the connections of my injury through my other body parts and how to integrate my movement through Gyrotonics. I was so impressed with the Gyrotonics movement system that with Amanda’s help I learned the gyrotonics and Gyrokenesis certification process. Amanda is very skilled and integrative instructor. Her many years as a dancer brings an understanding of movement integration greatly aids her capacity to understand and work with people with any form of movement...

I took a yoga swing/trapeze class with Amanda at the Movement Temple. She was incredibly knowledgeable about body mechanics and had attention to details for optimal alignment.

They work with the students to help...
