We present the molecular gas morphology and kinematics of seven nearbySeyfert galaxies obtained from our 230~GHz ALMA observations. The CO J=2-1kinematics within the inner $\sim30$" ($\lesssim9$~kpc) reveals rotationpatterns that have been explored using the Bertola rotation model and amodified version of the Kinemetry package. The latter algorithm reveals variousdeviations from pure circular rotation in the inner kiloparsec of all sevengalaxies, including kinematic twists, decoupled and counter-rotating cores. Acomparison of the global molecular gas and stellar kinematics show overallagreement in the position angle of the major axis and the systemic velocity,but larger discrepancies in the disc inclination. The residual maps obtainedwith both the methods shows the presence of non-circular motions in most of thegalaxies. Despite its importance, a detailed interpretation of the physicsresponsible for non-circular motions will be discussed in a forthcoming work.
