Fascia-Focused | Dissection Workshops

Very few practitioners will ever have the opportunity to study human anatomy in this way.

Held at the Plastinarium in Guben, home of the world-renowned BODYWORLDS exhibitions, Fascia Anatomy Labs offers small-group dissection workshops that explore the human form through a fascia-focused lens. Led by Jihan Adem and Gary Carter, these immersive labs combine hands-on investigation, embodied enquiry, and expert guidance to reveal the continuity, complexity, and functional intelligence of the body in a way few learning environments can.

What makes these labs distinct

World-class setting

Held at the Plastinarium in Guben, home of the BODYWORLDS exhibitions and one of the most extraordinary anatomical learning environments in the world.

Small-group immersion

With close guidance, generous lab access, and no more than six participants per table, the work remains intimate, rigorous, and deeply hands-on.

Fascia-focused perspective

Exploring the body through continuity, relation, and function, these labs offer a way of studying anatomy that is both precise and profoundly integrative.

Upcoming Labs

Each lab is developed around a specific region, theme, or line of enquiry, while remaining grounded in the same fascia-focused approach to anatomy, dissection, and embodied learning. Explore current and upcoming courses below.

"One of the most enriching experiences of my entire life."

"Fascia is continuous – and your clinical reasoning needs to be too. Being immersed in dissection of fascia and in particular a special dissection of the vagus nerve during this week-long course in Guben has been indescribable. One of the most enriching experiences of my entire life."
