Dissection Livestream Specialty Class: The Anatomy of Feet, Hands, Eyes and Ears – “Our Proprioceptive Windows on the World”

Thank you for your interest! Registration is now closed. Please email info@anatomytrains.com with any questions. 

Anatomy Trains and Laboratories of Anatomical Enlightenment present 1-Day Dissection Livestream Specialty Class: The Anatomy of Feet, Hands, Eyes and Ears – “Our Proprioceptive Windows on the World” with Tom Myers and Todd Garcia

We know where we are in space by listening to the stretch receptors in our muscles, joints, and fascia. We also use our four ‘windows on the world’, four neurologically rich areas to orient ourselves – the plantar surface of the feet, the palmar surface of the hand, our eyes, and the inner ear.

In this one-day class, we will take on these four neurological surfaces in detail, exploring the skin, fascia, and the neuro-fascial arrangement of the ends of both limbs. We will then take on both the outer structure of the eye – how its movement is controlled in the orbit – as well as the inner structure of the eyeball and lens itself. Our exploration of the ear will include the outer ear, and to the degree that we can expose it in real time, the inner ear with its tiny ‘bones within bones’ and cochlear arrangement.

This one-day course complements our other dissection classes, and previous experience with our more general classes will be an advantage, but all practitioners interested in human neurological orientation to the world will want to join Todd and Tom for this unique corner of human anatomy.

This course will be provided over zoom webinar with multiple camera views, live chat and Q&A. Recordings will be provided via password protected streaming access for 5 days.

Note: To ensure a high quality student experience, registration will CLOSE at 8PM EDT on Friday, July 16th

This special dissection livestream format allows us to go more deeply into the relationships and applications to multiple manual and movement modalities, from athletic training to trauma resolution to osteopathy.

This course is open to all, but due to its advanced nature, some prior experience with dissection, especially our 4-day dissection livestream, is recommended.

***Please note this program is for the intellectually mature and involves unfixed human cadaver images***
