About the event

AT is an embodied approach to increase body awareness, change habitual posture and find more ease and calm in body and mind. Clinical studies have shown that AT is helpful for PLPD to gain better coping skills with postural challenges and day-to-day living.

Increased body awareness assists in gaining more balance and a better sense of the body. Changing postural habits allows for better gate, more uprightness and more flexibility.  AT assists in reducing muscle tone for less rigidity, less tremors and more fluidity in movement. AT helps to acquire a better connection to oneself, a more positive outlook on life and more self-confidence!

Please bring a few paperback books to class, and your yoga mat if you prefer.
