The Complete Core
Join Anatomy Trains author Tom Myers, and Master Dissector Todd Garcia, accompanied by Master Japanese translator Kaori Tani, for a unique view into the specifics of what is meant by ‘core’. The things you hear, like ‘everything’s connected’, ‘core strength’ and ‘core support’ – How do these vague concepts play out in the actual anatomy? This layered dissection of untreated human tissue is a journey from the connections between the girdles in the outer sleeve, down through the ‘middle core’ of the abdominal layers, and on into the deepest core of the spinal muscles on the front – especially the diaphragm, psoas, and pelvic floor. Come see for yourself the truly integrated nature of core function and how it relates to the whole body.
Note: this course is conducted in English with live Japanese translation
