ATSI Canada 2027 – Parts 1 and 2
Explore Anatomy Trains’ unique perspective on fascial research, the human condition in our electronic world, and the approaches we can use to restore ease, balance, and long-term resilience to the body in motion.
Supported by our experienced teaching and administrative staff, we will guide you into a new relationship with your own body – through work with classmate partners, teachers, and outside models – progressively building your skills in seeing the pattern and shaping the change.
Immerse yourself in regional anatomy, BodyReading, session strategy and techniques in Part 1, learn and practice a 3 Series of Structural Integration with your classmate partner and with outside models during Part 2. Benefit from experienced supervision and positive support throughout the program.
Part One of the ATSI Program consists of 6 Structural Essentials which can be taken as individual workshops, or as an intensive program delivered in 15 days.
The 6 Structural Essentials modules are a set of intensive soft-tissue technique courses.
Divided into functional regions, each module thoroughly conveys 15 to 20 technique ‘templates’ designed for versatile application for the different patterns your clients bring to you.
Each module includes:
Relevant anatomy for the area – short intensive and integrated presentations assemble the best figures from multiple sources, including brand new learning tools such as video of fascial dissections and palpation of the relevant structures to convey the information in an inspiring and understandable fashion.
BodyReading (visual assessment) – the common postural and movement implications – how to see and ‘read’ them in the intricacy of individual patterns
Fascial Release Techniques – each technique is fully laid out for intent and ‘feel’, with plenty of time for practice, ensuring that you can apply these methods immediately in your practice.
Part Two of the ATSI program is an in-depth and intensive training over 10 days. You will develop a full-body vision, applying the postural assessments already learned and integrating them into a complete understanding of the relationships throughout the body.
Using Thomas Myers’ Anatomy Trains as the model for the interpretation of structural and functional compensations, you will be equipped with the functional analysis tools to be able to design and perform the Structural Bodywork series, which can produce powerful and lasting changes for your clients.
You will learn the ability to balance the lower body (Session 1), the upper body (Session 2) and the spine (Session 3).
The series allows the client to regain a sense of completion and connection in their body, being able to use it as a communicating and co-operative whole rather than a set of individual parts, bringing efficiency and integration to their system.
All of our teachers are highly trained and experienced practitioners. They are able to use a range of teaching methods to help you to hone your touch skills, ensuring a confident and accurate engagement of the fascial tissues in each part of the body. Our teachers are up to date with current research and thinking on bodywork approaches to the body, and will give you the opportunity to blend your current skills with the new ideas demonstrated allowing you to evolve your own unique style of myofascial bodywork.
Once you have completed Structural Strategies, your knowledge can be further expanded through our advanced Structural Integration Training, to also encompass the mind-body connections and expand on the skills taught in this section.
[Students who will be continuing on to ATSI Part 3: Structural Integration will need to complete two papers and 16 (3) series sessions (total 48 sessions)]

ATSI Professional Certification consists of three parts in total.
You may take each part separately, in consecutive order, as long as the next part is completed within 2 years of the previous part and based on space availability. That said, most people go through the full training with the same group over the 9 month period.
