Anatomy Trains ® in Motion

MYOFASCIAL BODY MAP FOR MOVEMENT

Anatomy Trains ® in Motion is filled with functional anatomy, movement relevant information and practical applications that not only sound good on paper, but also work well in real life.

At the heart of the course are the myofascial meridians. Understanding the lines’ integral anatomy, workings, sensory qualities and relationships are invaluable for body reading, clear movement intention, lesson planning and teaching. Yes, myofascial meridians are so much more than ‘lines’ that can be ‘superimposed’ onto exercises!

The essential events of walking, or said differently, the necessary motions for engaging myofascial meridians efficiently in gait, are a theme that runs throughout the 3 days.

All of the theory is “translated” into movement with lots of exercises, functional sequences and a specifically designed Anatomy Trains in Motion lesson.

If you love integral anatomy and want to gain an extensive understanding of the Anatomy Trains body map through movement, this course is for you.

CLOSER LOOK AT THE MAIN COURSE CONTENT

Anatomy Trains Body Map

In the Body Map section of the course we will discuss Anatomy Trains as a practical guide for movement teachers.

Myofascial Meridians in Motion

The first four Myofascial Meridians are discussed and explored in detail, with the Arm and Functional Lines layered in. An overview of the Deep Front Line and practical applications is also included:

Superficial Back Line. Included: Back Arm Lines.

Superficial Front Line. Included: Front Arm Lines.

Lateral Line.

Spiral Line.Included: Functional Lines.

Deep Front Line.

The main goals are:

Know the myofascial components of each meridian.

Experience each line in motion.

Get a sense of each meridian’s sensory qualities.

Recognize their influence on postural and movement patterns.

Understand their interconnected nature.

The base teaching structure is as follows:

Each meridian is experienced with a specifically sequenced exercise selection.

Each meridian’s myofascial anatomy is discussed and practical applications included.

General postural, movement and training considerations are discussed.

Body Reading

Body Reading revolves around holistic postural and movement evaluation. You are training your eyes to recognize structural relationships and corresponding patterns in the myofascial meridians.

Essential Events

Essential events are key joint actions for walking that engage the lines most efficiently. In other words, essential events facilitate the freedom of movement that allows you walk with ease; therefore they will be discussed during the course and incorporated in practise.

Anatomy Trains in Motion Lesson

The course starts and finishes with a seamless movement class comprising purposefully sequenced exercises in which:

    Each myofascial meridian is focused on with clear intention.

    Essential movement events are improved.

    Myofascial training techniques are incorporated.

Slings Essential

SLINGS ESSENTIALS

FASCIA IN MOTION & TRAINING CONCEPT

Slings Essentials is all about fascia, its role in movement and conscious training. The comprehensive information will serve as a knowledge-base for the Slings in Motion repertoire courses. 

The first half of Slings Essentials revolves around fascial architecture, its interactive relationship with other systems and 10 movement relevant qualities of fascia. 

The second part is dedicated to the Slings philosophy and the ‘Big 6’ long-term training aims, followed by the 10 guiding principles and 10 myofascial training techniques.

Although Slings Essentials contains a good portion of theory (as tends to be the nature of a science-informed foundation education), getting the body moving is still an integral part of the training. Morning lessons and practical applications linked to the theory are as much a part of the course as the integral-anatomy-Sudoku that makes fascia so fascinating. 

If you are serious about fascia and a comprehensive understanding of its role in movement, this course is for you.

Slings in Motion I,II,III

Slings in motion modules are self-contained, practical repertoire courses. Although each slings in motion course has a clearly defined theme and a unique exercise selection, they have common features.

Commonalities

All slings in motion courses include the following content.

Practical execution of a contrasting blend of:

differentiated and integrated multidimensional exercises in all body positions

slow and deep, dynamic and rhythmic, stimulating and invigorating, as well as mellow and melting exercises and movement sequences.

exercise variations with and without additional props.

In-depth discussion of:

movement execution

functional anatomy

short-term and long-term exercise aims

slings guiding principles

slings myofascial training techniques

purposeful sequencing 

Functionally choreographed, smooth flowing slings synerchi movement sequences. Daily Slings in Motion master classes. 

Intelligent Myofasical Training for Independent Thinkers

We foster independent thinking and we really want you to understand each exercise, so you can practice, modify and teach with clear intention and confidence - and have some fun along the way!

If you are a curious mover and individualistic teacher who likes to understand exercises and functional sequencing, the Slings in Motion courses are for you.

CERTIFICATION COURSE

As a modern institute for adult education, we firmly believe that a certification should make you a better teacher. So, we don’t use trick questions or entangled sentences in a multiple-choice questionnaire, nor do we set unrealistic movement goals or encourage empty recitals of anatomy from short-term memory.

The Slings certification course is an assessment of your skills and knowledge as well as an opportunity to refine them, clarify questions and consolidate your understanding.

The two days are a dynamic mix of teaching, moving and quizzing, essay presentations, reflections and knowledge refinement through short lectures.

We encourage you to complete the certification course, because this way, you make the most of your Slings Myofascial Training education.

If you like to gain the most value from an education, the Slings certification course is definitely for you.
