The Feldenkrais method is a representative approach of somatic education that was developed by Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais in the 1940s.In recent years it has received attention in a wide range of fields in Japan, including art, education, sports, medical service and welfare .The Feldenkrais method is organized in two ways: ATM(Awareness Through Movement) and FI(Functional Integration).The ATM group method is a style of lessons in which all partcipats move according to verbal instruction.This study investigated a variety of physical conditions where change in the physical sense was brought about by the ATM.30 subjects attending a class were asked to draw the form of an individual's body in the contact with the floor in the supine posture. They was asked to record before the start of ATM and at the end.Drawings were divided into 5 classifications accordingto the change in the physical contact shown in the drawn data. There are five types: the movement type, the expansion type, the compound type, the reduction type and the change-less type.The types which were most abundant were the expansion type and the compound type, a total of 86% of the whole. On the other hand, there was very little reduction type and a change-less type.From these results, the variety of the physical senses and complexity were confirmed. It seems fundamental knowledge improves in case of guidance in use of ATM group lessons.
