Special Dissection Livestream: Eyes, Heart and Throat – An OpportunityA 2-Hour Fresh Tissue Cadaver Dissection Livestream with Master Dissector Todd García
Join renowned master dissector Todd García and Anatomy Trains CEO Mel Burns for an immersive two-hour fresh tissue cadaver dissection exploring the remarkable anatomical relationships of the eyes, heart, and throat.
This unique livestream offers a rare opportunity to observe the intricate architecture of these structures in real human tissue while deepening your understanding of their functional, fascial, neurological, and clinical connections.
Through meticulous dissection and expert anatomical commentary, Todd will reveal the layered complexity of the orbit, cardiovascular system, and upper airway, highlighting the relationships that are often difficult to appreciate through textbooks, models, or imaging alone.

What You’ll Gain
- A three-dimensional appreciation of anatomical relationships impossible to achieve from illustrations alone
- Enhanced understanding of fascial continuity and regional integration
- Insights into functional anatomy relevant to manual therapists, movement educators, bodyworkers, healthcare practitioners, and anatomy enthusiasts
- The opportunity to observe fresh tissue dissection in real time with expert narration and discussion
Whether your interest lies in structural integration, movement science, manual therapy, anatomy education, or clinical practice, this livestream will provide an extraordinary window into the living architecture of the human body and the profound relationships between vision, respiration, swallowing, circulation, and expression.
Experience anatomy as it truly exists—layered, interconnected, and alive with meaning.
We will provide an extended 30 days access to the recordings for this special event.
