A clear movement vocabulary that changes how each repetition is experienced.
Polykinetics™ Rhythmic Tempo Training
Your body runs
on rhythm.
Polykinetics turns rhythm patterns, tempo speed, and controlled movement into a structured training experience—so every beat has a purpose.
Created in 2014 by Michelle Vargas • Stay on beat™
Speed becomes a deliberate training variable—not background noise.
Movement, rhythm, and focus come together in one structured system.
“I built the method I needed.”
Creator • Author • First-degree black beltMeet the creator
Michelle Vargas built movement around rhythm.
Michelle Vargas is the creator of Polykinetics™, author of The 8 Rhythm Patterns, and a first-degree black belt in Songahm Taekwondo. She began developing the system in 2014 after physical pain, deconditioning, and mental-health challenges made conventional workouts feel inaccessible.
Her answer was a simpler, beat-driven method that addresses the physical and mental together—using structured rhythm, external cueing, and controlled movement without relying on extremes.

Eight ways to shape a repetition.
The exercise can stay the same while its impulse pattern changes. That simple shift changes the pacing, attention, and experience.
One important rule: Polykinetics uses an outside cue—a metronome or music—to help keep the movement on beat.
