Following her Emotional Anatomy series, Joanne responds to your questions and brings together the connections between fascia, movement and emotion.

Through fascinating visual demonstrations, she challenges traditional mechanical models of anatomy, exploring why familiar explanations involving levers and joints don't always capture the complexity of how our bodies develop and move.

Through her concept of “knots in the net” and a deeply personal story, Joanne explores how emotional experiences may shape patterns within our bodies.
