"I have had the privilege of studying with Gil Hedley repeatedly since 2012. Each experience has been profoundly impactful, both professionally and personally.

Gil Hedley is a rare and extraordinary educator, and continuing to study with him has been one of the most meaningful commitments of my professional life. I am deeply grateful for his dedication to this work and for the profound impact it has had on my understanding of human anatomy."

"My time in the lab with Gil was life changing on so many levels. First, I appreciated the atmosphere of respect and awe the Gil brought to the study.

I had no previous experience of hands on anatomy, but felt my presence was valued. I was truly a stranger in a strange land but was supported to trust the process, step by step.

I remember what I saw, felt, learned, understood, every single day when I work with my clients in movement."

"It is so rare to share the presence of someone who has mastered a numinous craft so deeply yet shows up time and time again with beginner’s mind…Gil, of course. A true poet, generous. The Leonardo of our time.

What have I gotten from a decade of dissection with him? X-ray hands, a front row seat to the healing miracle that is the human organism, and the humility and inspiration that comes from peering into the mirror of the soul."

"This week has been a meaningful step in my forever learning journey - something I am sure I will never forget.

Also, a nice melding of magical contemplation and a remembering of the wonder that every living being carries within.

Thank you for your gift of facilitation and holding the container so gracefully."

"My first class with Gil took place in 1995. By that time, I had been practicing and teaching massage since 1987 and felt confident in the knowledge I had accumulated. Encountering the deeper truth of the body—and finally understanding why anatomy books often contradict one another—was profoundly humbling. To say my first experience was life-changing would be an understatement. It influenced not only my academic understanding, but also my clinical practice. I found myself applying the lessons I learned from each donor, informed by the new clarity and “vision” in my hands."

"Gil Hedley will forever be one of my most profound teachers. His depth of wisdom is unparalleled alongside his humble willingness to say, "Hmm, I don't know...let's explore!" makes learning a very communal integrated and fun process.

Gil's work for me is a blend of exquisitely taught functional human anatomy blended with the philosophy of being an inspirited human being mixed with poetry, humor and love. Thank you always Gil!"
