Deborah Rubin
I am a yoga teacher, and I produce workshops and trainings for yoga teachers. In my experience, the Anatomy Trains program is a crucial missing link in understanding how all elements of our bodies work together, no matter what the style of yoga. As teachers, we often tend to view parts of the body in isolation, so if there is pain or restricted movement we seek the answer in the affected area, then wonder why the problem may not always be resolved. I, as well as Yoga and Pilates teachers and manual therapists who have participated in workshops I hosted for Tom, have reached a new level of both personal and professional development through the Anatomy Trains work which has impacted our teaching immensely. As both the healing modalities of both Yoga Therapy and Restorative Yoga evolve, I believe that understanding of the myofascial connection is crucial. Yoga focuses on the person as a whole, and Anatomy Trains provides a superb tool to shift from isolation to holism. I highly recommend this work.

Deborah has teleclasses and audio library on her website, www.YogaSpirit.com which has featured Tom Myers. The most recent audio was on The Pelvic Floor. One student said of this presentation:
This course was incredibly useful. Listening to Tom live challenges me (in a good way) because he is very knowledgeable about both anatomy, function, and technique and I am still integrating an intellectual understanding with direct experience. Having the gift of the archival material allows me to go back at my leisure, and pause whenever I am unclear or want to go deeper with further reading. Combining pictures and mini-experiences with the information brought it alive. Understanding the pelvic floor, a complex area for me, has become accessible as a result of this audio course. Highly recommend studying with Tom any chance you get. ~ Charlotte
