Recently different experiments mention to have observed a large scale cosmic-ray anisotropy at TeV energies, e.g. Milagro, Tibet and Super-Kamiokande. For these energies the cosmic-rays are expected to be nearly isotropic. Any measurements of cosmic-rays anisotropy could bring some information about propagation and origin of cosmic-rays. Though the primary aim of the ANTARES neutrino telescope is the detection of high energy cosmic neutrinos, the detector measures mainly down-doing muons, which are decay products of cosmic-rays collisions in the Earth's atmosphere. This proceeding describes an anlaysis method for the first year measurement of down-going atmospheric muons at TeV energies in the ANTARES experiment, when five out of the final number of twelve lines were taking data.
