    Karin believes that knowledge should be shared generously to foster independent thinking – and that complex movement concepts need to be delivered within a clearly defined and practical context to be embodied and ‘embrained’ alike.

    As the founder of art of motion Academy, the developer of a Contemporary Pilates curriculum, and the creator of the Slings Myofascial Training concept, which includes Anatomy Trains in Motion, she sees herself as a resource-oriented movement activist and ambassador for creative living.

So I’m a personal trainer/registered yoga teacher who geeks out on anything about anatomy. One of my recent yoga teacher training courses delved into Anatomy Trains (Tom Myers). It was so good but I wanted more. I discovered this little book on Amazon and kept it in my wish list. For fun I’ve been doing assessments for the physical and mental body because my next journey is yoga therapy… My husband surprised me with this book and holy heckn heck! I LOVE it. It gives amazing descriptions and in depth details of the fascial meridians. There are pictures, exercises, and so much more all in a compact size. My Anatomy Trains book while incredible is big and heavy. This book is small but it is so incredibly worth it. It gives so much information. The small size will enable me to drag this book everywhere ❤️ Bravo to the creators of this fabulous book! I couldn’t be happier! ❤️🙏🏽

I thought this was a review/summary on the Anatomy Trains textbook but if you don’t have the textbook or you haven’t read it, this won’t make much sense. It really appears to be a study guide only. I returned it; it was not informative itself.

I think i doesn't worth the price. It really say little more than noting. the best thing of it are the pictures of the autor in athletic poses. So in nutshell, nice book but way too expensive for what they give. I would like to return it.
