Along with a systematic, layer-by-layer approach to the human form, every step of the way we co-create side projects and specific inquiries based on student interest. Leslie and Lauri lead three 90 minute post-lab movement sessions designed to integrate the day’s material.
Our weeklong hands-on, human anatomy labs attract adventurous learners from diverse disciplines. Our 2024 lab will be held in Colorado Springs at the Institute for Anatomical Research from October 28 through November 1.
20 CEU hours of professional anatomy training recorded in hi-definition from a state-of-the-art cadaver lab! Uncover the magnificence of the human body through the replays of this 5 day live-streamed cadaver dissection course with world renowned anatomists Leslie Kaminoff (co-author of Yoga Anatomy) and Lauri Nemetz (dissector, movement therapist, yoga teacher and team member Fascial Plastination Project).
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to explore actual human forms, with the wisdom of professional guides, from the comfort of your own home, through the lens of your own profession and curiosity. Over 5 days we will journey into the majesty of holistic human anatomy using both embalmed and unfixed (un-embalmed) cadavers to uncover muscular and fascial connections, breath mechanics, organs and their attachments, glands, nerves, bones, joints and the brain. Each day consists of two 2-hour sessions of recorded content, with a morning session direct from the lab, and an evening of deeply integrated education featuring more lab footage blended with somatic explorations, and live Q&A.
The theory and practice of yoga and other forms of movement will be the key lens that will inform our explorations. Massage therapists, acupuncturists and other holistically oriented medical professionals will also find this integral view of the body transformative and enlightening. A certificate of completion for 20 online contact hours of CEU credits will be issued upon request to all participants who complete the training. These hours have been approved by both the International Association of Yoga Therapists and the Yoga Alliance.
In The Myofascial System in Form and Movement, Lauri draws from her extensive background in art history, myofascial movement, anatomical dissection and more to weave together the many facets of this evolving area in a visually rich and thought-provoking book.
Since its release in 2007, Leslie Kaminoff and Amy Matthews’ Yoga Anatomy has sold over a million copies in over 24 languages and has been a valuable resource for practitioners and teachers of yoga and all other forms of healthy movement.
