"My teacher Nora, has not only taught me how to move free with the Gyrotonic system, but has also empowered me to free my mind and let it fly. Her special approach to others and deep soul-touching communication have made me a person who can give love to others as well. I always find bliss and joy when I study with her." ~ Jaeyoung Choi Gyrotonic/Gyrokinesis Pre-Trainer, Owner, gyrotonic tribe, South Korea

"I’d totally lost my sense of direction as a leader, but meeting Master Nora helped me find my way again. So talented, so thoughtful, and full of the best energy—impossible not to love her. Already missing her. Our queen 👑” 💛  ~Hye Rime Kim - Gyrotonic/Gyrokinesis Trainer, Seoul, South Korea

"Even  though many LEU trainings are held in Seoul, I came all the way to Taiwan because I truly wanted to learn this training from Nora And as I expected, it became such a meaningful and precious time for me. Throughout the class, I learned so much not only from the movements themselves, but especially from her warm eyes and every gentle word she shared My experience with Nora feels like it will become a big step forward in my growth.”

~ Cho Sue Yi - Seoul, South Korea

“A dream-like training….Being guided by Nora’s powerful grounding energy was deeply inspiring.”

~ Soo Jeong Lim - Seoul South Korea

"Completing the Gyrotonic® Leg Extension Unit training, the biggest takeaway was not learning more exercises, but gaining a deeper understanding of the design logic and purpose behind the LEU. Learning from Nora Heiber, one of the first-generation Gyrotonic masters. I could clearly see that her insistence on details and principles is never about formality— it comes from a deep understanding of why each movement and structure exists. Once again, it was clear why she is truly the first Master of this machine. Over these six days, both my body awareness and teaching perspective were reorganized. Learning alongside people from different countries and professional backgrounds, and supporting one another through the process, made this experience especially meaningful." ~Cathy, Gyrotonic/Gyrokinesis Trainer, Taipei, Taiwan

“Nora's handholds speak the voice that fills in all the gaps. Nora's touch is amazing and deepened my awareness. With gentle clarity, she cues and mentors the specificity of where to place the hands on the spine and body that will open and complete its energetic flow. She teaches the subtleness of how to maintain an open vision, of how to choose which angle to place the hands at that will awaken the overall spherical expression of this system in the student. In addition, her gentle style allows for the importance of her words to land and stand out. Both my personal practice and teaching are expanded and more complete from working with her.” ~Elizabeth Jackson, Gyrotonic Master Trainer, Owner of White Lotus Studio, Los Angeles

“I had the opportunity to retake the Gyrokenisis Foundation Level 1 at Allsgood Farm with Nora Heiber in April of 2024.  Nora’s property in the Sierra Foothills is stunning.  We were able to move every day but one outdoors, which took Gyrokenisis to a level I had never experienced before.  It was so beautiful, that with every spiral I broke into a big smile!  Nora’s quickly zoned in on various misconceptions I had developed after 3 years of practicing Gyrokinesis via Zoom or on my own.  I came away with a deeper understanding of and even greater love for Gyrokenisis!  Thank you, Nora!” ~Julia, Gyrokinesis Trainer, NYC

"Gyrokinesis is an invigorating, flowing system of movement for me. It brings me great joy as I sense energy and freedom in my body. Thanks to Master Trainer Nora Heiber, I was able to hone my skills in Gyrokinesis Pre-Training and begin to learn to teach the system in her Foundation Course. Nora teaches with passion, skill and kindness."  ~Linda McDonald, Gyrokinesis Trainer, California

"I love Nora. Nora has been my go-to Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis Master trainer for over 20 years! She is very wise, very real, compassionate and a lot of fun. She knows the Gyrotonic system inside and out. The Gyrotonic/Gyrokinesis Teacher Trainings draw high level dancers and movement experts. I am not one of those students yet I find her trainings accessible, supportive and highly enjoyable. Nora creates a safe and caring space in her trainings which enable deep exploration and meaningful learning. She always meets me where I am as she does with all her students. I receive so much more from Nora's trainings because she is intuitive and reads the body like no one else. Most importantly, she paces her trainings so there is enough time to integrate the teachings and take care individually. I especially love Nora’s trainings at Allsgood Farm which is the perfect place to learn, grow and enjoy the Gyrotonic/Gyrokinesis spa experience in a very beautiful nature setting." ~Letty Flohr, Gyrotonic Trainer, Body/Mind/Spirit Coach, Owner of Sole to Soul, California 

"My husband and I did an intensive two weeks with Nora. Her knowledge, expertise and passion is infectious and inspiring. Her demeanor as a teacher is patient and supportive and well revered. Her farm and studio in Penn Valley allowed the basis and support we needed to delve into an intensive Gyrotonic experience. The surrounding farm is beautifully wild and full of meadows and sacred California oak trees. Many birds add to the harmonic feeling of bliss. We both found Nora inspiring and wonderfully instructive. She shared her years of knowledge of biodynamics and Gyrotonic in a loving and concise way. She was supportive of my husband recovering and strengthening after a fourth round of knee surgery. She helped him get stronger and more aligned in his exercise regime. For me, as a newcomer to Gyrotronic, Nora helped me achieve my goals of expanding my fitness threshold while creating strength and elongating my muscular structure. The trip was made special with Nora suggesting the local farmers market in Nevada City where we found the most delicious organic seasonal produce. We will be back for more of her instruction and sharing her practice with us." ~Trisja Malisoff, Los Angeles, Realtor, Tony Podesta, Washington, DC, Lobbyist

"Nora is a master who warms and cares about every student. In the classroom, she responds to each student's background, situation, problems and questions, and gives teaching and support in the most patient and caring way. She also assisted me in setting up a good community for the growth of Gyrotonic/Gyrokinesis in Tainan city. I am so lucky to have the opportunity to learn from her, and I look forward to have more opportunities to communicate with and learn from her in the future." ~Dominique Feng-Hsi Yen, Gyrotonic/Gyrokinesis Pre-Trainer, Prof. Dance Department, Tainan University of Technology, Director of Listen Body Studio, Artistic Director of Feng Dance Company, Tainan, Taiwan

"Dear Nora Master Trainer, thanks for helping me to discover more possibilities in my body, and for guiding me to become more aware of it-learning how to live with less effort. You also helped me see my blind spot in hand cues. Every day in your class feels joyful and warm. Thank you for taking care of noly our bodies, but also our hearts. Love you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️" Yi-Rou, Gyrotonic Trainer, Taipei, Taiwan

"I am lucky to be able to learn the JSB Master Trainer Nora Heiber, teacher Nora is a passionate, warm person who cares about each of us like moms before and after class . JSB textbooks are rich, Nora personally experienced a variety of textbook versions, knowing the background and purpose of the development of those textbooks, and the classroom often takes care of us not only to complete the action appearance, but also to deal with the inner power connection. Carefully deployed these 7 days of learning instead of reading books, and even told us that these few days of curriculum can be applied to our future teaching. ⚘ Nora used to be a ballet dancer, and it makes us connect with each other many common physical experiences, even when we can't catch the point in English, we can communicate in dance terms Lin. I know you. Teacher, you really understand my body, and in the process you use various ways, equipment, and movements to guide my body to regain strength. This sincere and strict support is appreciated." Linhsuan Haung - Gyrotonic/Gyrokinesis Trainer, Dance Instructor
