Back to Movement is the practice of Angelo Zanfardino, a registered osteopath and certified Gyrotonic® and Gyrokinesis® instructor with over 15 years professional experience, whose work is informed by his background as a classically-trained dancer. His career as a dancer was dependent on his body being in an optimal state of movement, so Angelo highly prizes restoring clients to ranges of movement they hadn't expected to regain.
Angelo's clients have included individuals recovering from injury and physical discomfort, or living with chronic illnesses, as well as renowned dancers and athletes seeking to optimise the fluidity and range of their movements - with all clients he identifies a bespoke treatment plan, drawing on his osteopathic expertise and his extensive experience as a Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis trainer.
Angelo says 'I am passionate about helping the human body to realise the potential of strong, fluid, pain-free movement. No two bodies are alike, and no two injuries are the same. Far too often, people seek help with recovery from pain or an injury, only to be disappointed by treatment which is generic and ineffectual. I created Back to Movement to rehabilitate each unique individual using a cross-disciplinary approach. As a classically trained dancer, I strive to find perfection in the beauty of movement, and have been inspired by my own experience of injury rehabilitation.
As a trained Osteopath I analyse how a client's complaint affects their body as a whole, and its movement patterns. I devise a bespoke treatment and rehabilitation plan. As a Gyrotonic fitness instructor I believe in the importance of grounded posture and bilateral alignment to provide the basis and support of all movement and the fluidity of it. I use the osteopathic approach for diagnosis and treatment, and rehabilitate with the Gyrotonic method. I work holistically and pragmatically using all the skills I have gained in the past 16 years and getting patients Back to Movement.

Originally from Naples Italy, Angelo Zanfardino is a registered osteopath, certified Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis instructor and classically trained dancer. Like many who work in the therapeutic field, Angelo's journey began with his own injury. Whilst dancing, he suffered a severe ankle injury. It left him unable to perform and required several years of difficult post-surgical rehabilitation with ongoing pain.
These experiences gave him an appreciation of the benefits of both osteopathy and GYROTONIC® movement for rehabilitation, inspiring him to become a certified GYROTONIC® trainer in 2007 and a certified GYROKINESIS® trainer in 2009. He continued to build upon his therapeutic credentials with five years of study at the British School of Osteopathy in London, graduating with a Masters in Osteopathy in June 2016. Since then, he has undertaken numerous CPD courses including on Osteopathy in the Cranial Field with Sutherland Cranial College, and in the BodyCode System with its founder Pino Carbone in Florence.
