Anatomy in Focus- The Knee

This workshop focuses on the muscles responsible for moving the knee joint, how they tend to malfunction, and how to correctly utilize good mechanics to support the knee joint throughout a long, active life.

Participants will use the innovative ANATOMY IN CLAY Learning System to build the muscles of the knee from colored clay applied to a realistic model skeleton. The workshop also includes a movement session using exercises and stretches that focus on the muscles being built!
