The Courses
Each lab is shaped around a distinct anatomical theme, region, or line of enquiry, while remaining grounded in the same fascia-focused approach to dissection, embodied learning, and close anatomical study. Held in small groups at the Plastinarium in Guben, these courses offer rare opportunities to explore the human form with depth, precision, and direct hands-on access.
The shoulder, arm and their fascia arrangements to the whole body
22–27 November 2026
A fascia-focused dissection lab exploring the shoulder, arm, and their relationship to the wider body. This course explores the shoulder, arm, and their fascial arrangements in relation to the whole body, including the arm’s connection to the deep core. Held over six days at the Plastinarium in Guben, it offers an immersive dissection experience guided through a fascia-focused lens.
Designed for practitioners interested in hands-on anatomical enquiry, the course offers the opportunity to study structure, continuity, and function through direct observation and guided dissection.

The Fascia Anatomy of the Face and Facial Ageing
23–28 May 2027
A fascia-focused facial dissection lab for qualified facialists and professionals working with the face. This course offers a fascia-focused exploration of the anatomy of the face and facial ageing, combining hands-on dissection with anatomy teaching, palpation, movement, and discussion. Participants explore facial tissues plane by plane, observe fascia, fat, and connective tissue in situ, and relate facial anatomy to posture, breath, and the wider body.
It is designed for facialists and professionals working with the face who want to deepen their anatomical understanding with greater clarity, confidence, and respect for the integrity of the tissues. Previous dissection experience is not required.

The Fascia Anatomy Lab for Peter Grunwald of EyeBody
19–24 September 2027
An immersive exploration of fascia, movement, and perception. This lab offers an immersive exploration of the body’s connective tissue system, bridging anatomy, movement, and perception. Through hands-on study and guided enquiry, participants deepen their understanding of fascia as a dynamic, whole-body network central to coordination, resilience, and expression.
This course is connected to Peter Grunwald and EyeBody, and centres on fascia as a living, relational system rather than a collection of isolated structures.

The Anatomy of Breath and the Fascial Thorax
21–26 November 2027
A fascia-focused dissection lab exploring the structures of breathing, respiration, and the thoracic body. This course offers a fascia-focused exploration of the anatomy and dynamics of breathing, integrating hands-on dissection with anatomical teaching, palpation, movement, and discussion. Across the week, participants explore the structures of breathing from the nasal passages into the thoracic cavity, while relating breathing mechanics to posture, movement, and whole-body function.
It is suited to manual therapists, movement professionals, and clinicians who want to deepen their understanding of the structures that create and shape respiration. Previous dissection experience is not required.

Would you like to run a workshop with us?
We offer bespoke fascia-focused workshops developed around a specific theme, region, or group.
If you would like to attend with colleagues and explore a specific region or theme of anatomical interest, it may be possible to create a customised course to suit your needs. These workshops are shaped around the group attending and the line of enquiry being explored.
