Make plans to experience this work and participate in a private or group session, called Awareness Through
Movement® (ATM) group lessons (also called Tranformational Movement Lessons by Anat Baniel). The
instructor verbally guides the group through a series of small movements, based on a certain action or function.
All you have to do is follow the commands.
During each group lesson, movement is explored like an experiment. The instructor gives you simple, easy
commands to perform certain specific movements. The specific movements in the class are based on a specific
theme, or functional action (i.e. Improving rolling, turning, etc).
Typical positions you are in during class are your back, sitting, or on your side. Advanced positions are on your
belly, side sitting, hands and knees, kneeling, etc. All positions are designed to both decrease the effects of
gravity, and optimize the ability to learn. I make accommodations in the class if you have limitations or special
needs (joint replacements, unable to get on the floor, wheel chair bound, etc.) Drop-in is welcome. Feel free to
start at any time. Newcomers are always welcome. I also offer people the opportunity to observe the class at no
cost to see what it is like.
