What is GPBALANCE?
The method
GPBALANCE invites us to connect to our body, to our breath, to the present moment. The postures, breathing and inner massages stimulate the endocrine glands for a harmonious and proactive health. Women and men from all walks of life: this practice is for you.
The founder
A pioneer in the teaching of yoga in Latin America, Gustavo Ponce is a former Chilean Ambassador to Japan, international businessman, writer and columnist in yoga magazines in several countries. He is the founder of the GPBALANCE method.
Testimonials
A very nice discovery, I really appreciated the guidance, the kindness and the very precise explanations. Thank you again for sharing so much with us, and bravo for your involvement.
Wendy Mourait (France)
With Fanny Lehideux + Frédérique Verdeau (France, 2022)
The practice of GPBALANCE has been revolutionary for me because I feel that on the one hand, it gives me a lot of energy, I don't feel tired during the day and on the other hand, it is a method that saves yoga techniques and practices that were a bit forgotten and that I had no way of accessing beyond literature and I felt that something was missing in my personal practice. From what I have seen, it is also revolutionizing the lives of others, even those who have never practiced yoga. GPBALANCE is wonderful and I think you should spread the word because it is truly energy medicine.

With Gustavo Ponce (Chile, 2022)
I left feeling rested, energized, sleeping better, I feel like I got that vital energy back that my acupuncturist told me I was low on, even doing the same things, I am another Woman ! ! ! I really want to continue the practice, even to evaluate if I can avoid medication for now (I am in the climacteric phase, on my way to menopause and my thyroid has been inflamed for the past 2 years). I am interested in continuing my studies and I continue to practice. Grateful. I hope to see you again soon.
Valquiria Urbano (Brazil)
