We present a theorem describing a dual relation between the local geometry of a space admitting a symmetric second-rank Killing tensor, and the local geometry of a space with a metric specified by this Killing tensor. The relation can be generalized to spinning spaces, but only at the expense of introducing torsion. This introduces new supersymmetries in their geometry. Interesting examples in four dimensions include the Kerr-Newman metric of spinning black-holes and self-dual Taub-NUT.
