Body Space Marumi
Pilates and Gyrotonic Personal Training are not concepts I was that familiar with before I tried my first session at Body Space Marumi, but I was very attracted to the idea of personal training.
Having done Yoga for many years, I am familiar with breathing techniques and stretching exercizes, but the training here not only helps you relax and work out sore muscles, it also helps you feel more graceful. In fact, my posture was so much better when I walked out that I felt somewhat taller.
Owner and personal trainer, Shigeo Furumoto has been running his studio since 2005 after coming back from his training in Stockholm, Sweden working in the training and massage room at the Royal Swedish ballet. He also spent some time apprenticing at the St.Petersberg ballet therapy room.
Shigeo's gyrotonic training is intended to build core muscle strength, improve posture, loosen stiff muscles, relieve pain and thereby improve a person's overall health.
The sessions are not hard or vigorous workouts, but they are nonetheless effective.
It is recommended that you eat at least an hour before coming, bring or wear your own comfortable work-out clothes. No shoes are used in the studio, you can do the session in socks or barefoot. It is possible to shower and change at the studio if you would like.

- 1 session (60 minutes) ¥3600
