In these classes, participants are led through slow, mindful movement sequences- often while lying, sitting, or standing- with the goal of increasing body awareness, improving movement efficiency, and reducing unnecessary effort or pain. ​

Unlike traditional exercise, ATM classes emphasize paying close attention to how you move, encouraging self-discovery and adaptation rather than following a “correct” way to move. The instructor guides your attention to different sensations, helping you notice habitual patterns and explore new ways of moving that feel easier and more integrated. ​

ATM classes are suitable for people of all ages and abilities, including those seeking relief from pain, greater ease in daily activities, or a deeper sense of well-being. Many participants report feeling calmer, more grounded, and freer in their movements after class
