Course Description
4-day Fascial Dissection Intensive In person with Anatomy Trains author Tom Myers and Master Dissector Todd Garcia. After so many online classes in the last years, we are excited to be back in the dissection lab with Anatomy Trains author Tom Myers and master dissector Todd Garcia at the Laboratories for Anatomical Enlightenment in Boulder, Colorado.
In 4 days, we will go from skin to bone, including exploration of the superficial fascial layers, the myofasciae and the Anatomy Trains meridians, the organs and their attachments, joints and the spine, and the brain, meninges, and nervous system.
You will work on your own donor and project, obviously, and additionally there is comparative anatomy as you learn from other people’s projects on (probably 4) other donors as well. Pick your own project or we can help you find one. You are supported by experienced Anatomy Trains lab assistants at a table with 7-8 other participants. You can also observe the fine skills of master dissector Todd Garcia who will be demonstrating on a dedicated table, and gathering the benefits of the other projects in the room.
