I report results of kinematic studies of the Narrow-Line Region (NLR) of nearby Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) from integral field spectroscopy (IFS) obtained with the Gemini Telescopes, including mass outflow rates and corresponding kinetic power. The IFS has allowed the construction of velocity channel maps which provide a better coverage of the gas kinematics and do not support the presence of acceleration up to hundred parsec scales in the NLR as found in previous studies based solely on centroid velocity maps.
