STUDY GUIDE 5.2: ANATOMY | SKELETAL SYSTEM & JOINTS

Videos & articles to support content in SG 5.2 and our discussion from 5/17:

VIDEOS

  • Joint Classificationshttps://youtu.be/LqCkvj0fTj0

    • Presentation of the structural & functional classification of joints

  • Types of Synovial Jointshttps://youtu.be/dJZz7hBoALs

    • Short, but good visual that demonstrates joints moving within a plane of motion and around an axis of rotation

  • Synovial Joints: https://youtu.be/JO_N1apvidE

    • Really good presentation of the 6 types of synovial joints​. This video could serve as a review of our discussion on 7/17,  and he does a much better job of teaching it than I did! 

  • Dr. Ananda on the Homunculus and Hatha Yoga: https://youtu.be/FO99gjIzp2w

    • Dr Ananda discusses the sensory motor Homunculus and how Hatha Yoga integrates different parts of the somato sensory and motor areas of the human cortex
