Kinesis is a new 360-degree training system that uses cable resistance and multiplane motion to combine cardio and weight workouts. The Kinesis Classes at the Athenaeum Spa in Malta are typically 30-minute session begins with a balance-focused warm-up that emphasizes gradual movement. The workout itself is broken down into three rounds of multiple push-and-pull motions. Difficulty levels increase as you go faster and use more complex movements. Workouts progress much like spinning. One person can be doing a very basic exercise, another more advanced, and they won't feel in competition even though they're right next to each other.

Instead of the body following the machine, Kinesis follows the body, allowing for free range of movement with no compromise to the resistance load. Kinesis will adapt to the human body, rather than the other way around.

The trainer will rotate the clients from one module to the next. One does a military press, another does a reverse wood chop, another performs punching motions. Murphy fine-tunes, urging a newcomer, praising a fit veteran and helping a man with a sore knee make adjustments to a side-kicking motion. The trainer helps them scale back or work harder and implores each to use his or her lower body to stay on balance. She occasionally corrects form, but prefers to let people move naturally so their minds and bodies sync.
