Pilates & GYROTONIC® Equipment in Medfield

“Using nature as his model and experience as his teacher, GYROTONIC® Creator, Juliu Horvath began creating a unique and innovative line of exercise equipment in the early 1980’s.”

“PILATES is complete coordination of body, mind and spirit.”

— Joseph PILATES

Full Line of GYROTONIC®

The innovative line of GYROTONIC® equipment is crafted with high quality, commercial grade materials and is designed according to the exacting standards of Juliu Horvath, who is still actively creating, improving and expanding on existing designs. Jului often affectionately refers to the equipment as “The Instruments”. The GYROTONIC®  Pulley Tower Combination Unit was the first unit of GYROTONIC® equipment to be sold to the public. In 1991, Horvath introduced a line of specialized equipment- The Jumping Stretching Board, the Archway, the Leg Extension Unit, and the GYROTONER® . Each unit of specialized equipment has its own unique features and functions, providing an extensive range of exercise options.

At our Medfield studio, we believe that the right equipment makes all the difference. Our facility is outfitted with professional-grade Pilates reformers, towers, and mat systems that support precision, alignment, and progressive movement. For GYROTONIC®, we offer a fully equipped studio with the entire GYROTONIC equipment lineup that seamlessly integrates with our Pilates gear. Each piece is regularly calibrated to ensure smooth motion, safety, and optimal performance.

Our Pilates Trapeze Cadillacs, Reformers and Towers provide adjustable resistance and guided movement for core strength, flexibility, and body control. The GYROTONIC® pulley tower adds full-body kinetic chain movement, supporting fluid, rotational motion unique to that system. Also available in our studio are Pilates Barrels and Chairs by Balanced Body and Gratz. For mat-based work, we use high-density mats and accessory tools like resistance bands, small weights, balance devices, and props that complement your session. This breadth of equipment allows us to tailor workouts to your level—from beginner to advanced—and to shift between modalities fluidly.

PPS Deluxe Reformer

The world’s first 3-in-1 marriage of the essential Pilates equipment–Reformer, Cadillac and Mat System, features a folding and rolling design for easy storage. The PPS Deluxe Reformer is the most versatile and innovative piece of portable Pilates equipment. The PPS Deluxe combines three essential pieces of equipment, the Reformer, Cadillac (Tower End) and Mat, into one compact, space saving unit. One person can easily fold and roll to store with out removing any parts. The PPS machine is constructed of the highest quality, commercial grade materials and is engineered for utmost performance and durability.

Balanced Body Trapeze Table (Cadillac)

Trapeze Table supports an extraordinary variety of exercises from gentle, spring-assisted sit-ups to advanced acrobatics. The stainless-steel frame is easy to maintain and sits on a solid, stable maple wood base handcrafted with lapped and fitted joints for maximum strength and durability. Sliding cross bars feature self-lubricating, greaseless bearings for ease of movement. The base, wider than traditional Cadillacs, can accommodate a broad range of body types. The Slide System makes repositioning the push-through bar a fast, quiet and a one-person job that will not interrupt the session flow. Factor in low maintenance and a limited lifetime warranty and you know why the Balanced Body Cadillac is the #1 choice among Pilates practitioners and rehabilitation clinicians.

Pulley Tower Combination Unit

The GYROTONIC® Pulley Tower Combination Unit is the result of over thirty years of research and development, and is the most widely used piece of GYROTONIC® Equipment. The  pulley tower provides smooth, even support and resistance via a unique, weighted pulley system. The adjustable bench and rotating handle unit can be customized to fit the individual proportions, and movement capacities of each user. The design of the equipment supports the full, and natural range of motion of the joints, allowing for three-dimensional, functional movement, and eliminating the sharp starts and stops where most injury occurs.

Gyrotoner

The GYROTONER® facilitates hip, and shoulder articulation in a myriad of different planes. It is an especially useful piece of GYROTONIC® equipment for mobilizing the thoracic spine, and for coordinating hip, and shoulder movements with the spine.

Jump Stretching Board

A diverse range of standing exercises improve flexibility, coordination, and functional strength. The ergonomic, gliding platform allows users to experience running, and jumping in a low impact, horizontal plane, with the spine and pelvis fully supported, making it ideal for post injury exercise. Four independent gliding slides, with optional rotating platforms, provide for challenging strength and coordination sequences.

Leg Extension Unit

The Leg Extension Unit facilitates functional full body movement sequences that strengthen upper/lower body coordination, and hand/foot coordination. Contra-lateral movement sequences in various planes increase functional strength and stability at all joints.  A unique, patented, cam mechanism allows the leg to elongate, as it extends.  So, the hip and knee joints are able to move in a fluid, natural range, without compression, increasing stability and strength around those joints. 

The Archway

The Archway is considered by many to be the most physically demanding piece of specialized equipment. The vertical, tiered ladder design of the Archway accommodates advanced strength and stability sequences by allowing users to perform exercises in various relationships to gravity- vertical, horizontal, diagonal, and inverted. The included propeller accessory, and adjustable arms provide standing, and rotation exercises for people of various abilities- beginners to advanced.  The Archway is a great addition to any studio, and is especially popular with dancers, and other athletes.

Honest Reviews From Our Clients

Ever think of transforming your body, I mean really transforming your body, from the inside out on a cellular level as well as a muscular one? As a retired woman 65 next month who has been exercising for years, yoga of all types, PILATES, reformer, Zumba, I can tell you that although I didn’t expect that, and I wasn’t promised that, I have noticed a difference in my posture, body awareness, and even confidence since I have been working with Deborah Saparoff. 

I had heard of GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® in San Diego where I spent the winter. New to Massachusetts, I joined some meetups based on my interest, fitness, Italian, theatre, are, and I found Deborah. It is a 28 mile ride each way and worth the drive and the energy. When you look at Deborah, right before your eyes you have a model of balance, grace, and form.

When she models the very difference spiraling techniques and breathing, one opens up gradually, which is evident in one’s added range of motion and the “feeling” of greater space and height.

I always say after a session, I feel like a million bucks! It is truly powerful work! I recommend Deborah Saparoff unequivocally as an inspirational master teacher.

I have scoliosis, with kyphosis and deep lordosis. My back used to be hunched and in constant chronic pain. As a result I had very limited range of motion and an injury in my left shoulder due to lack of proper muscular strength/support. There was very little that physical therapy and other conventional therapeutic methods had done and could still do. As a result my best course of action had become massage therapy weekly to alleviate some of the deepest pain I was experiencing.

Since I was introduced to GYROTONIC®, about seven years ago, despite my mature age (I was 70 years old at the time) my body became a process of slow but deep/consistent transformation. I remember that since the very first lesson with Deborah, I felt the benefits. ! no longer suffer back pain, I am able to move my spine with control and deep support. I enjoy movement again and a sense of freedom and ease that practicing the GYROTONIC® Method brings to my life. I am 77 years young now!

I got so much out of the training you provided me. The experience was unique in my life – I literally learned new ways of moving and consequently new ways of being. It was  GYROTONIC® itself, your amazing skill and the joy you clearly exude in your work. I think the training has given me a lasting benefit for example we are doing a lot of hiking and I am free of the back aches that used to plague me from that sort of thing before. Wanted to say thank you.

Patricia P.

Multiple sclerosis has altered my life in many ways, and while there are a plethora of negative symptoms of the disease, I am lucky to have been introduced to Deborah Saparoff and her GYROTONIC® exercise regimen. Specifically designed for people who have experienced the negative physical effects of injuries, diseases, etc., the exercises that Deborah has introduced me to with the GYROTONIC® system have had a positive impact on my life.
