Delve into anatomy through a hands-on, experiential approach that goes beyond rote memorization. Engage in movement, touch, and visualization + somatic exercises to deepen your understanding of the body's structures and functions.
Uncover the interplay between physical anatomy and emotional well-being. Explore how emotions, stress, environment and mindset influence the body's physiology, and learn techniques to promote balance and resilience.
Move beyond the isolated study and traditional perspective of muscles and bones and instead generate a more expansive understanding and application of knowledge. Intentionally connect the dots and patterns between anatomy, movement, and overall well-being, gaining insights that can be applied to various disciplines such as yoga, dance, fitness, physical therapies, body work and beyond.
The principles of Embodied Anatomy can be applied to any type of movement, bodywork, therapy, or other body-mind discipline. This course is suitable for individuals of all backgrounds, regardless of prior anatomical knowledge. Whether you're a yoga instructor, fitness enthusiast, healthcare professional, or someone simply curious about the body's marvels, this course provides a welcoming space for exploration and new awareness.
