The team
The Gyrotonic® KinExpan center was born from Nasrin and Jean's desire to help people who wish to remain active and who are struggling with physical difficulties related to aging or following injuries.
About Nasrin Mostofi
MOVEMENT AS A GUIDING THREAD
Passionnée par l’art du mouvement, Nasrin a toujours mené une vie active, alliant activités en plein air et entraînements réguliers avec discipline et engagement.
THE INJURY AND THE TURNING POINT
In 2017, during a training session, she suffered a serious back injury, marking a turning point in her life. She then embarked on a long road to recovery, undergoing numerous consultations and various rehabilitation treatments, while also dedicating herself to yoga and Pilates. Yet, despite all her efforts, lasting progress remained elusive. This challenge spurred her to search for an effective method to regain her strength and return to the active life she loved.
DISCOVERING GYROTONIC®
In 2022, Nasrin discovered the Gyrotonic® method. What began as a search for relief turned out to be a true transformation. Thanks to this practice, she regained her strength, flexibility, and greater freedom of movement.
DE LA TRANSFORMATION À LA TRANSMISSION
Inspired by her own experience, Nasrin became a certified Gyrotonic® and Gyrokinesis® instructor, as well as a trainer on specialized equipment such as the Gyrotoner® and the Jumping-Stretching Board®. Captivated by the transformative power of the method, she pursues specialized training internationally, deepening her expertise with master instructors. She is also qualified in Gyrotonic® Applications for the Pelvic Girdle and Gyrotonic® Applications for Runners, allowing her to bring even greater precision and depth to her teaching.
A HOLISTIC APPROACH
Since 2023, she has passionately shared these powerful methods, helping her clients regain freedom of movement, resilience, and renewed energy for life. Alongside her journey in movement, Nasrin holds a degree in radiology, knowledge that enriches her understanding of the human body and strengthens her holistic approach to teaching.
About Jean Lapointe
INTRODUCTION AND SPORTS JOURNEY
Jean Lapointe has been involved in intense physical activity since a very young age. A former canoeist, sport has always been central to his life. However, from childhood, he suffered several significant traumas, such as a car accident and sports injuries.
INITIAL PAIN AND EFFORTS TO MANAGE IT
Au début de la vingtaine, il commence à ressentir de fortes douleurs dorsales, qui l’amènent à entreprendre des traitements chiropratiques ainsi qu’un entraînement physique soutenu pour préserver sa mobilité et sa vitalité. Ces deux moyens lui ont permis de contrôler ses douleurs jusqu’à la mi-cinquantaine, moment où les fortes douleurs ont repris.
BREAK AND DISCOVER GYROTONIC®
In 2021, Jean stopped working to focus on his health. In 2022, with his wife Nasrin, he discovered the GYROTONIC® method — a pivotal encounter that led to a dramatic and rapid improvement in his condition.
TRAINING AND EXPERTISE
Inspired by this transformation, Jean deepened his knowledge through specialized training such as GYROKINESIS®, Jumping-Stretching Board® and Gyrotoner®.
CONTRIBUTION TO THE STUDIO
Jean brings to the KinExpan studio not only his technical expertise, but also his personal experience on the challenge of regaining health.
