About
Mike Luque is a certified GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® Trainer and movement educator based in Makawao on the island of Maui, Hawaii. Originally from California, Mike transitioned into the movement arts following a background in competitive gymnastics, massage therapy, and corrective orthopedic bodywork. His path dramatically shifted in 1998 when he experienced his first Gyrotonic session. Recognizing immediately the system's unique ability to restore articulate joint articulation, dynamic core strength, and natural mobility, he dedicated his career to the method.
Mike completed his primary foundation training in 1999 under Master Trainers Debra Rose and Nora Heiber, receiving his certification directly from system creator Juliu Horvath. Over the past two decades, he has continually expanded his expertise across the full suite of specialized equipment—including the GYROTONER® and Archway—while integrating advanced credentials in NASM personal training and kettlebell instruction.
A central element of Mike’s work is his creation of the GYROTONIC® Wingmaster course. As the developer of this specialized program, Mike has had the privilege of traveling extensively across the United States and internationally—teaching courses in destinations such as London, Florence, Rome, Barcelona, Bali, and Seoul. His global work with trainers and movement professionals continues to inform his high precision and adaptable approach in the studio.
Approaching movement like a dedicated "body engineer," Mike combines his deep grounding in anatomy, hands-on bodywork, and athletic conditioning to help clients resolve persistent pain, rebuild strength after injury, and enhance performance for sports like golf, surfing, and pickleball. Whether conducting international teacher trainings or working one-on-one with clients at his studio in Makawao, Maui, Mike is committed to helping every individual move freely and live life to the fullest.Mike began his GYROTONIC® journey as a client in 1998. Mike was already a massage therapist and after only 5 sessions he realized that for people to really improve their bodies, they need to do some of the work themselves, so he decided to become a trainer. Working with Debra Rose and Nora Heiber, he became a certified instructor and certified on all the specialized equipment. He's also a certified GYROKINESIS® instructor and has taken the foundation with Juliu Horvath and again with Domini Anne. He's had the great pleasure of taking courses with eight different Master Trainers.
