Sylwia Wiesenberg is the founder of Tonique Fitness Method and the ingestible beauty and wellness brand, Dope Naturally. Since childhood, she trained on her gymnastics team and was also a part of her school’s track team in communist Poland. This extensive/deep knowledge and understanding of movement allowed her to create an intensive workout method for women to build their confidence and both mental focus and physical endurance. Her focus is on multidirectional movement, working every single part of the body which is integral to balance and focus.
Tonique officially launched 15 years ago, when she decided to leave her corporate job in finance and follow her childhood passion - movement and choreography with a strong goal to contribute to women’s lives so they feel and look fabulous. Available in underground workouts (think Fight Club - you don't talk about Fight Club) - this was true for Tonique. Eventually, Sylwia decided to reach out to all the women around the world who were looking for something different, something harder and above your tiny workouts - she released DVDS and offered her workouts as downloads.
There are over 40 Tonique workouts that are available for download, with more on the way.
Tonique Fitness is a method (created to deliver unique toning results) often known as gravity fighting. Tonique is multidirectional method based on squats, lunges (even in a pushup you will find elements of squats or lunges) and elements from dance and gymnastics in a static form without much impact from jumping. Tonique signature workouts are 2 hours, but Sylwia also offers express intense workouts too. Tonique is known for its repetition, and staying on one leg for at least 45 minutes to an hour, before moving to the second leg and doing the exact same moves/workout from the very top, but on the opposite leg. Sylwia swears that the method works wonders and beyond being super sculpting and gravity fighting - Tonique is a great workout method for women to develop strong and focused minds.
Tonique is available everywhere – at home, in the park, at the hotel pool - there are no limits where you Tonique. It is offered as downloadable links.
Fundamentally, Sylwia wants to prove that with the right fitness method you can prolong the feeling of youth, improve skin texture and elasticity, help faster cell turnover, and most of importantly create uniquely strong body for live - it is not the size, but the fitness level that counts!
