By Lauri Nemetz, Anatomy Trains Faculty and Pace University Adjunct Associate Professor (pictures courtesy of the author) I recently had the pleasure of presenting my workshop oral presentation, “Dancing the Connected Body: Exploration of Bipedalism to Artistic Expression through the Lens of Anatomy Trains®” to the 2018 Movement, Brain, Body and Cognition held this year… Read more
OSTEOPATHY
Andrew Taylor Still had the most articulate view of the whole ‘structural body’. His insight into the importance of fascia fuelled Ida Rolf’s study, which in turn gave rise to the Anatomy Trains. Anatomy Trains makes sense out of the relation between joint movements, subtle physiological movement, and the myofascial system. Take your osteopathy into the soft-tissue system with a holistic view – the Anatomy Trains way of seeing and working.
How Do I Start?
Kickoff your education with Anatomy Trains by reading Anatomy Trains Third Edition by Tom Myers. You’ll learn how the muscles are functionally linked in ‘myofascial meridians’ through the fascial webbing.

Building the Holistic Evidence Base – Facts and Fallacies
Building the Holistic Evidence Base – Facts and Fallacies by Tom Myers, Holly Clemens Ph.D. There’s a strong movement afoot in the communities of physiotherapy, rehab, and conditioning to make our work ‘evidence-based’ – i.e., the procedures we practice on paying customers should be based on sound evidence to support their efficacy. This is a laudable… Read more
Interstitium: A Statement from Tom Myers
Insterstitium: Observations by Tom Myers, author of Anatomy Trains and lecturer on fascia Every act of observation reveals one thing at the cost of obscuring something else. New methods of observation inside the body – in this case confocal laser microscopy – are showing a system conventional slide and staining methods collapsed – and thus… Read more
