BENEFITS OF ESSENTRICS THE COMPANY AND FOUNDERS

Unlock your Body with Essentrics®

Essentrics is on a mission to establish the true meaning of what it is to be fit at every age and stage of your life, with a special focus on age prevention and reversal through movement. We believe that fitness should not be measured with an index, in miles, in muscle mass or in speed. Rather, it should be measured in one’s ability to move freely, live actively and without pain.

The goal of the Essentrics Workout is to create a balanced body such that the strength in your muscles doesn’t inhibit your movement, and your mobility is enhanced by your strength. Essentrics dynamically combines strengthening and stretching to develop a strong, toned body with the complete ability of moving each joint and muscle freely and with full range of motion.

With thousands of testimonials from the programs’ devotees of all ages and fitness levels, professional athletes, Olympians, doctors and physiotherapists—we are confident that  Essentrics  will target what you need, unlock what is tight, strengthen what is weak and tone what needs shaping.

The Company & Founders

Over  twenty  years ago,  former professional ballet dancer  Miranda  Esmonde-White created the  Essentrics®  technique—a dynamic  stretch workout  for all fitness levels  designed  to engage  all  650 muscles and 360 joints.  It  became a go-to  program  for  athletes  to enhance their  performance, and later  developed  into  the  highly acclaimed  20-year running  fitness television  show, Classical  Stretch®, for the PBS  network.

Fueled by a passion to educate viewers about the science of aging and movement, Miranda ventured  into scientific and lifestyle books: New  York  Times  bestseller, Aging Backwards, the Nautilus award-winner, Forever Painless and most recently, Aging Backwards: Fast Track—which yielded award-winning documentaries of the same name.
