Course: Living Anatomy
Living Anatomy at the Craniosacral Therapy Educational Trust (co-founded by Michael Kern) is an interactive online course run over nine weekend seminars, supported by home study. Seminars take place roughly once a month — and have a focus on the human body’s vitality, with a learning style that is both enjoyable and informative. The weekend seminars begin on July 17th-18th 2021.
The course places an emphasis on practical study, and a recurring theme is participants’ awareness of their own bodies. This course combines unique teaching methods with practical exercises in touch and palpation skills, meditation and visualisation, surface anatomy, mobility testing and body movement, all intended to give participants a direct understanding of the topics being covered.
