What is your opinion on CGMA? Is it worth the money?

I put money down on the perspective class with Oda and was thinking about getting in on lemon man but I can't find reviews. Plus his riley method is not attractive for me. And then there is nacorda and he explains stuff really well, better than Hampton, but he is Hampton light.
On the topic; are there any good anatomy courses (paid) that are out there? I don't mind paying top dollar just one that teaches good construction methods. Are there none online and all the good anatomist teachers are walled off in California?

Local artists and professors often do night classes at community colleges and fine art academies, You can also audit a credit course for relatively cheap. Anatomy for artists is a bit harder to find, but if you chat up enough artists, it's not hard to find one who will do it online or in person for regular tutoring rates $(20-35/h).

I took Peter Han's "Dynamic Sketching" class, and I'd say its worth it iff you're willing to put in no less than 20hrs a week into your studies.
That being said, I don't know if its your best option, cause that shit is expensive as fuck. If you have a nice and steady source of money then I'd say its worth the money, otherwise... I'd look for something more affordable.

>explains stuff better than Hampton
Really? Hampton's take on gesture was absolutely eye-opening for me.
I don't know much about Lemon, but his vids on yt are pretty shit. Not bad-bad, but definitely not the type of stuff you want to be spending money on.
Also - what do you need an anatomy course for? Just stick to the principles -
>organize muscles into groups
>conform the minor forms to the major ones
>think of muscles in pairs (flexion, extension)
I really liked Keller's explanation with rubber bands - if you have a hinge joint that can only bend two ways, you'll obviously have to deal with two muscle groups.
It's also important to note that correct muscles without the appropriate volume aren't worth shit.

It's not really the anatomy per se but the construction and I can't seem to find any course online who teaches solid construction method that isn't 'analytical'. Like I'm looking for the English version of krenz and I know they exist just not giving their information out on the internet.

So I decided to go with nacorda. If I click on other students profile I can see the crits ( don't know if that's intentional or a bug or a loophole) but the crits are pretty decent and at least he doesn't pretend to be a rocket scientist like Hampton with pretend jargon.
And it's beans and rice for the rest of the month...
