It was very nice the Basic Anatomy workshop in Bodymind Therapy. Enrico, Nora, and Francisca are super friendly and with a great sense of humor. The teaching method was very dynamic and didactic which I really appreciated. I think it is a good GO for anyone looking to have a first approach to basic muscular and skeletal anatomy.
