TESTIMONIALS

Taking online classes with Jackson has not only helped to progress my own movement journey, but has also greatly informed my teaching. Jackson freely and generously shares his vast knowledge, experience, and teaching tips, and I come out of every class with new insight into practicing and sharing this beautiful movement modality.

EMMA KUMLEY

Gyrokinesis online classes with Jackson and Rotem are great! The precise instructions, the front and side view of each movement plus the joyful moments makes them very special and unique!

CAROLINA AGUAYO MATURANA

Being guided even over Zoom by Master Trainer Jackson Kellogg for the last year and half has been the most transformative experience. I have been taking his beautifully orchestrated classes of Gyrokinesis, Jumping Stretching Board and Pulley Tower over the year and every class seems to opens new thoughts and dimensions within myself. He takes such evident pleasure in this work and is so generous with his understanding. I have felt supported and challenged throughout. He embodies everything that the Gyrotonic Method is attempting to give us all, with unbelievable skill, grace, humility and fun. I am so very grateful to have had the opportunity of Time and his time!
