Ryoko Gibson has been instructing me at the Transformation Wellness Center for more than five years. She has a great knowledge of the body and gyrotonics. Ryoko has a great attitude and is a very good instructor. I have felt this instruction has benefited my joints and muscles and helps me to stay in shape. She challenges me without damaging my body. I think this exercise not only keeps my body toned but also challenges my mind. I hope that gyrotonics with Ryoko will help keep me fit long into my 70s and 80s.

I'm glad to have found Gyrokinesis at the Transformation Wellness Center, as its improved my flexibility and overall quality of life. Most of the class is completed while sitting on a stool and stretching, while the remainder of the class involves balance and weight lifting. I used to suffer from low back pain, but since doing the exercises in class and at home that pain has since been relieved. Thanks Ryoko for being such a great teacher.

The transformation wellness center that is run by Ryoko, has done exactly that - transformed my wellness! i have known ryoko for 25 years and i have trained with her from the very beginning. she is an EXCEPTIONAL instructor who is truly and wholeheartedly concerned about helping the well-being and health of others. i would say it is one of her missions in life. having lupus for over 15 years and being with her from the beginning of that journey - i can testify that without gyro i would not be moving and most likely be miserably uncomfortable in my body. i am 53 years old and i am able to move freely, stay active with my adult children and i am now able to keep up with my 3 very, very active toddler grandsons, along with carry them with NO PAIN! with all things in life, you get out what you put it in, you also get what you pay for! for me and my life with my family, it is priceless and imperative that i never stay stagnant- i want to keep going FOREVER! ryoko is a KEY COMPONENT of that mission!!!

I have had a most rewarding experience attending the group classes with the Transformation Wellness Center. I was invited by a good friend of mine to attend the classes for the first time about 3 years ago. At that time, I was struggling with depression, an overweight condition, flat feet making regular exercise and walking most difficult! Because of flat feet and no arches, a bone in my left foot fell lower and grew horizontally, causing horrible pain to walk! I wanted to just stay home, and do nothing, because of my discomfort! However, I continued to attend Ryokos twice weekly classes. I was slow at first, but gradually found these low-aerobic sessions of stretching, breathing, gyrating my body in circular motion, then reversing my movements helped me to relax and once again move in a no threatening or hurtful manner! Instead, I begin to feel better in every way. I felt more energized, capable and confident that I could do Gyrokinesis classes by Ryoko Gibson in a safe and gentle way!! I especially liked that we did not get down on the floor, but used a special chair to use with our class exercises. The classes were about 50 -60 minutes. As a result of my success in learning this new execise form, I told some other friends about these group Classes led by Ryoko, a few came and liked her classes, but were too busy to add this to their weekly routine. I still enjoy attending these fun sessions in between having arthritis and inflammation in my left hand and correcting with a skilled surgeon; most recently had a Reverse left Shoulder Total Replacement, which prevents me from attending Ryokos classes until with PT, I can come back to attend this worthwhile exercise again! For me, I have been most grateful to learn about Gyrokinesis and Gyrotonics. For anyone, suffering from chronic issues, I definitely would recommend anyone to contact Transformation Wellness Center in Brea, CA. and get started in a safe and enjoyable environment to exercise in a different way that definitely is so helpful and so worthwhile! Ryoko, is gentle and patient, ALWAYS, with those fist time attendees to make sure they are comfortable, doing only what they can, until they can do more and find comfort in what they are able to do. Thank you, Ryoko for all youve instructed me to do with love and kindness too!
