1440 Multiversity Retreat 2018

Join Anatomy Trains author Tom Myers and Anatomy Trains in Motion developer Karin Gurtner for a unique collaboration – a deep immersion in movement to enhance your well-being at all levels in Scotts Valley (near Santa Cruz), California.

More than a strong and defined body, intelligent movement gives you a medium to create a more defined version of yourself. Come explore the inner world of movement to get a deeper sense of your physical, emotional, cognitive and spiritual self – how you ‘move’ through the story of your life.

The science is clear: You can change inner states through outer movement. Learn to alter your psychophysiology by altering the qualities of movement – generous, dynamic, melting – or slow and controlled vs reflexive elasticity.

Karin Gurtner is a graduate PMA certified Pilates Matwork & Studio Teacher, certified Anatomy Trains Teacher and Kinesis Myofascial Integration Therapist, Yoga and Gyrokinesis Teacher, Wellness & Personal Trainer, Fitness Leader, certified Trainer & Assessor.

Tom Myers is the author of Anatomy Trains, the co-author of Fascial Release for Structural Balance, and numerous articles for trade magazines and journals that have been collected in the books Body3, The Anatomist’s Corner, and Structural Integration: Collected Articles. He has also produced over 15 DVDs and numerous webinars on visual assessment, Fascial Release Technique, and the applications of fascial research.
