Hello there! He is our next Embodied Anatomy Training in September!
Would you like to enhance your understanding of anatomy beyond the books? BWY short course tutor Julie Pons Woods is an anatomy specialist leading a fascinating module that explores the body from a whole new angle.
‘Do you remember why you first fell in love with movement? For me, it started with curiosity: how posture, pain, breath and emotion all live in the same body. Over time, I realised that learning anatomy isn’t just about muscles and joints. It’s about sensing, adapting, listening and seeing bodies as whole, complex stories. That’s what we explore in my 60-hour Embodied Anatomy Course for movement teachers.
It’s not just what you’ll learn, it’s how you’ll feel it.
* Feel how your diaphragm connects to your breath, your spine, your organs and even your voice.
* Explore how your pelvis, jaw and feet mirror each other through fascial continuities.
* Reimagine posture and pain through the lens of nervous system awareness and adaptation.
You’ll walk away with:
* Real tools for adapting practice on real people
* A deeper confidence in your anatomical understanding
* A lived sense of the body, not just a mental map
How this could influence your teaching:
Invite your students to explore the three diaphragms—pelvic, thoracic, and cranial—as interdependent fulcrums.
Ask, “What shifts in your balance or breath awareness when you allow all three diaphragms to orient toward each other, rather than isolate?”
This inquiry can reveal postural compensation patterns, refine proprioception and soften unnecessary effort. True integration isn’t about engagement, it’s about resonance.’
The course is designed for yoga, Pilates and movement teachers with 2+ years of experience who want to teach from a place of embodied knowledge and gentle guidance.
