Birth is Movement Course: May 18th 2025

Description

This is a prenatal course thought to give you tools to be able to live fully that unique moment. We will learn about the physiology of birth and how to facilitate its natural development, as well as confort techniques and the importance of movement. We will get moving, learn to recognize our pelvis and experiment with different props and positions.

This course is a mixture of both theory and practice. The theory will be covered partially in recorded videos that will be send to the participants upon registration, and partially during the in-person course. The practical part will focus on experimenting with an array of tools to help cope with pain and discomfort though motion, changing positions, and the use of elements like birth balls, suspensions, rebozos, partners hands, etc. In particular, we will learn to recognize our pelvis and understand how we can modify its shape through motion and, with that knowledge, try out different positions that can be used during labor and birth.
