Testimonials

It's a real honor and an invaluable experience to learn from Barbora. Her rare and profound knowledge of the human body and movement biomechanics, combined with her background as a former international principal ballet dancer, make her a top expert in the fields of movement, ballet technique, and Gyrotonic training. Her vast experience extends to working with a wide range of injuries and rehabilitations, reflecting her deep dedication to the craft. Under her care, my injury and movement limitations have improved tremendously. Every lesson is filled with care, precision, and inspiration, and results in tangible improvements in posture, alignment, coordination, strength, balance, and flexibility.

I have been exercising Gyrotonic for over 3 years. As someone who sits in an office chair for way too many hours, working with Barbora has helped me with posture and lower back issues. As I get older, Gyrotonic has helped me get stronger and, though I am rather short, people think I am taller because of how I hold myself. Highly recommended.

The Gyrotonic method and lessons with Barbora helped me achieve a "sense of length" in my body and return to optimal running positions. After 18 months of Gyrotonic training, my running performance and experience have improved significantly. While running is a repetitive movement in one plane, Gyrotonic exercises the body in three dimensions. It helps me relax stiff hip flexors and maintain an effective body position for further running.

Gyrotonic exercise allowed me to "re-learn" bad movement patterns and engage the deep stabilization system without excessive physical strain, and taught me how to breathe properly. Discovering this method has been a big positive change in my life.

I started going to Bára Kohoutková when I was 12 years old as compensation for my demanding studies at the dance conservatory. I fell in love with the Gyrotonic method and Bára's lessons so much that they accompanied me on my journey for eight years until I graduated. I dare say that thanks to her, I have never had a serious injury, and I would definitely not have gotten so far in dance without her guidance. Bára is kind and precise, her lessons are very systematic and well-thought-out, and after each lesson, you feel reborn. She is not only a great teacher, but also a beautiful person, both in body and soul. I highly recommend Barbora to everyone!

For years, I've suffered from chronic back pain stemming from a childhood injury. Two years ago, I was on the brink of giving up and considering surgery for my disk problems. Before proceeding, I decided to try Giro with Barbora, and she truly saved me. It's the first time in over twenty years I'm pain-free and able to move freely – something I hadn't been able to do for so long.
