Pontus Anckar
Antigym instructor, developer of Sensobic and journalist
Pontus Anckar is an Antigym® instructor and the developer of Sensobic. Among his teachers has been the renowned French physiotherapist Thérèse Bertherat. He is also an economist and journalist with nearly 20 years of experience in exploring the connection between body and mind.
At Jarruttamo, Pontus leads body awareness practices where participants can try small and safe movements and observe how they affect, for example, the muscles, mobility, and breathing.
Pontus does not teach in the traditional sense – his approach is based on each individual’s own ability to notice and on natural movement. He encourages people to trust themselves, to sense their own bodies, and to discover their personal way of standing, walking, breathing, and moving without performance pressure. In his work, Pontus emphasizes the importance of silence and presence, and in his guidance, everyone is given the space to explore and find their own authentic and conscious way of being.
