Highly Respected
- OVERVIEW
-
Invited speakers at this special three day event will include anatomy experts who have gained formal university accredited degrees in anatomy/medicine. This allows for a wonderful mix of traditional or classical anatomy, as delivered within the medical curriculum, and the Biotensegrity-Anatomy for the 21st Century comparison.
Regular team members include Clinical Anatomist John Sharkey (Ireland), with biotensegrity interest group experts Joanne Avison (UK), Mark Flannigan (UK) and Karen Kirkness (UK), with additional team members to be announced.
This unique three day dissection course takes place at the School of Medicine, Department of Anatomy at King’s College, London.
Come join us in summer 2023 when a group of world-renowned experts including specialists from embryology, biomechanical engineering, molecular biodynamics, anatomy, anatomopathology, Yoga, Chiropractic, Feldenkrais, Pilates, Neuromuscular Therapy, Osteopathy and biotensegrity gather in London to explore the inner cosmos of human matter underpinned by the model of biotensegrity.
Participants on the course will be invited to ask questions and share their vision with this panel of recognised internationally respected authorities.
Time and care has been taken to give due consideration to achieving the right mix of dissection investigation supported by educational and informative presentations by respected pioneers and leaders in the world of anatomy, medicine, movement and manual therapies.
- CONTENT
-
This rare and unique dissection course will involve the use of soft fixed cadavers using the Thiel embalming method exhibiting a greater degree of flexibility and true colour retention. Biotensegrity will be our main theme, providing the foundation for our understanding of the continuity of the human form.
A special focus will be around the subject of Embryological Origins; on a scale of softness to stiffness (of soft tissue) throughout our lives.
Explore how movement and form, in BioTensegrity architecture, are exquisitely interrelated from conception and throughout life.

This Biotensegrity Focused Full Body Dissection Course is open to all individuals with a keen interest in and a knowledge of human anatomy.

This rare and unique three day dissection course will involve the use of soft fixed cadavers using the Thiel embalming method. Our cadavers now exhibit a greater degree of flexibility and true colour retention compared to that of traditional formalin-fixed cadavers.
Each day will involve a short presentation before moving into the dissection room where under the guidance of clinical anatomist John Sharkey and a team of experienced dissectors you will dissect a specific area. There will be plenty of time for questions and personal enquiry.
This is a rare opportunity to explore the human form and our team of experienced tutors will do all we can to support you and make this a unique educational experience. We also hope to have an opportunity to investigate areas of participant’s own interest.
BioTensegrity- Genetics, Kinetics and Synergetics.
This three-day course will involve short presentations from John Sharkey and Joanne Avison. Following the short presentations learners will immediately begin the dissection having familiarised themselves with the local anatomy and topography.Biotensegrity will be our main theme in the course providing the foundation for our understanding of the continuity of the human form.
A special focus will be around the subject of Embryological Origins; on a scale of softness to stiffness (of soft tissue) throughout our lives. Considering that we live and develop between conception and elderhood, as a tensioned network that relies on BioTensegrity organisation to grow and change and emerge differently, at any point in time; over time…. in a continuum.
Explore how movement and form, in BioTensegrity architecture, are exquisitely interrelated from conception and throughout life.
Expand your perception of our self-assembly and how humans as the architects become or respond to our loading history?
Question how does appropriate stiffness relate to tensional integrity and elasticity in motion; from the cradle to the grave?
Witness the tensional nature of the body while we discuss how we grow what we are looking at in the dissection; such as the heart, the limbs and viscera.
