Mobility Matters

APT is all about mindful movement that is 'apt' for every unique human. Being curious and willing to explore your own mind, body & spirit connection, along with committment and consistency are the key to healthy joyful movement. APT believes we all have the ability to learn, move and improve and even heal ourselves with awareness, self discovery and intuitive choice from within. Andrea will never just write a program, she will work 'with' you or the group - to centre, balance, enable and empower. Everyone needs to start feeling accepting & good about where they are right now and then grow from that point in their own beautiful and confident way.  APT methods include Functional Movement, Mobility Matters, BODYART Training, Anatomy in Motion & Pilates.

<h2>Testimonies:</h2><blockquote>" I entered Mobility Matters online when Covid 19 hit us in March. I live in Brisbane and through friends and family I had heard of the wonderful classes Andrea Gaze provides to the Melbourne Community. Andrea was coming to Brisbane to give a talk on Mobility for the Senior population (of which now I'm one !) but it had to be cancelled. When I heard that Andrea was offering classes on Zoom I was delighted and have not been disappointed. I have gained so much awareness of how the body moves and how we can keep so much flexibility if we are given the tools to explore different moves in a controlled way. I have become so much aware of my posture during these sessions and I like how we have a chat at the beginning and end where we can discuss our experience and concerns. The video also helps me refresh the class during the two week break. Andrea is a consummate professional has great knowledge to share and is so passionate about this Mobility Matters. We all feel like stars!!!!!!! It is keeping us moving and that is so important as we age but with Andrea we are doing it in a safe way. Would love to continue next year. Thanks Andrea " Monica - Dec 2020</blockquote><blockquote></blockquote><blockquote>"I have gained so much from Mobility Matters in 2020. In a time when we were isolated for so long we were able to invite Andrea into our homes and she brought with her a sense of fun, wisdom and encouragement. She makes you WANT to exercise and lifts your spirits at the same time. I've been thrilled to see great improvements within myself. My neck, back, hip and foot all move better and suffer much less pain. My whole body works together to improve my mobility. I'm really looking forward to seeing what I can achieve in 2021! Thank you Andrea."</blockquote><blockquote>Lynda W - Dec 2020 </blockquote><blockquote></blockquote><blockquote>" I enjoyed the Mobility Matters classes. They made me feel more agile and lighter in body and spirit. I would highly recommend these sessions to other people who want help from a very experienced highly qualified instructor with the ability to tailor activities to the level of individual clients. I found the Zoom classes extremely helpful as I cannot travel at the moment and I need to my wife to assist me as I have macular degeneration and am in my 80's. "</blockquote><blockquote>John C - Dec 2020</blockquote><blockquote></blockquote>
