About this event

This two-hour workshop is designed for expectant mothers who want practical, body-based tools for labor. You’ll learn how to use breath, movement, and positioning to mindfully work with contractions and support an effective pushing phase that protects your pelvic floor.

We’ll begin with gentle movement to build awareness of your breath, pelvic floor, and core, then layer in evidence-based labor positions and breathing techniques for each stage of labor. You’ll practice specific breathing patterns for early labor, active labor, and pushing, along with positions that help open the pelvis, encourage baby’s descent, and reduce tension and tearing.

What we’ll cover:

Breathing techniques to stay calm, focused, and relaxed through contractions

Labor positions that support progress, comfort, and optimal baby positioning

Pushing strategies and positions that protect the pelvic floor

How to use movement and breath together to manage intensity and aid progress

This workshop is ideal for those in their second or third trimester who want to feel confident, prepared, and empowered going into birth.
