Muscles & Movement Anatomy

$597.00

Muscles and Movement Anatomy that supports manual + movement practitioners.

In this course, we'll identify all muscles of the upper and lower body, their actions, and how to correctly engage them in asana. We'll learn about two muscle categories, the difference between them, their roles in asana, and how to be sure you understand movement with both categories.

This essential information is delivered in a packed agenda, including:
- What the secret is to learning all the muscles and applying them to movement
- What the benefit of knowing muscle attachments, shapes, the direction of fibers, and attachment points is when teaching
- How to instruct asana from muscle action
- How muscle knowledge can impact alignment and safety
- How to let Latin work for you in muscle ID and function

With the same amount of time as a weekend immersion, the format of this course provides time to learn, review, implement, and ask questions. The result is the information becomes a FOUNDATION for you, far beyond a weekend experience.

Unlike other online courses, this is a live and interactive virtual course - I see you, and you see me - with plenty of practice time and Q&A. It’s almost as good as being in the same room together.

Credit for Continuing Education after completing the course, 25 contact hours.

Included:
Weekly Q&A, practice replay videos
Workbook for the course
CE certificate

The breakdown of the muscles and their movements was succinct and well-communicated.

We all can use more knowledge on the muscles and how they move.

Not necessarily surprising, but I learned a lot about muscles! My understanding of the functional anatomy of how muscles move to create joint action is much improved. Knowing insertion to origin is so helpful in that understanding.

Cheryl B

You need to know what muscles move the joint action in order to cue to the muscles that are necessary in that joint action. This also allows you to “correct” and take out the muscles that aren’t necessary.

I would recommend all of Gina’s courses. They are filled with so much good and usable information, which can be immediately applied!

Cheryl B

I would recommend it. It is an very good intensive anatomy course.

I don’t know that surprised is a thing I can say for this. But it’s challenging and a deeper dive, that I was wanting. The yoga centric is a pill, but make me try to think out of my box.. the lower leg to ankle brought a bit more clarity for me. So maybe that can be my surprise.

What surprised me this second time through the course was how many new nuanced nuggets I was able to learn and absorb this time that I hadn’t noticed the first time around (or failed to remember for very long).

The course thoroughly covers the whole set of muscles that are most likely to come up in movement work. The course also has a focus of making muscle knowledge directly applicable to movement work. The knowledge is not just cool trivia knowledge; it makes a difference in how we can help people.

It was good to review again cueing options. I really liked the cueing of isometrically pressing through the pinky toe edge in first position for engaging lateral rotators and doing that same cue when standing in parallel wide leg stance for engaging abductors.
