No matter where or how you plan to give birth, these classes guide you beyond the external noise—past the advice, stories, and myths—into a deeply embodied and intuitive approach to birth and early postpartum.

With experience attending over 300 births and working hands-on with prenatal and postpartum bodies daily, this class if full of real-world insight into what supports labor. This isn’t just theory—it’s a practical, body-informed approach designed to help you move through birth with ease and confidence.

You will develop a pain-coping mindset, release limiting beliefs, cultivate self-trust and self-love, and strengthen your connection with your partner and community.

MOVE THROUGH BIRTH equips you with practical techniques and hands-on experience so you can move instinctively, shift positions, and actively participate in your labor.

Are you ready to reclaim your body’s natural wisdom for birth in a world that’s made it forget?

When Should You Attend?

In this comprehensive childbirth class, you and your partner will gain emotional and practical skills to stack the cards in your favour for a smoother, more intuitive birth.

Labor often stalls not because something is wrong, but because modern life has disconnected us from natural movement patterns that support birth. A simple shift in position can make all the difference, yet our daily habits don’t always prepare our bodies for labor.

Our ancestors squatted, walked, and moved instinctively—while most of us only squat when a workout tells us to (if that!). Move Through Birth helps your body remember what it was designed for by integrating functional movement, biomechanics, and birth positioning into a cutting-edge, hands-on workshop.

Join anytime during preconception or between 20-40 weeks of pregnancy to start moving with your body—so birth can unfold as it was meant to.

What To Expect In Class

Your joy and excitement can sit right alongside the questions and uncertainties you may have about birth. Birth is complex, emotional, and deeply transformative—just like our workshops.

With this targeted, game-changing program, you’ll gain:

  • Hands-on experience with birthing positions before labour by building key neural pathways

  • Stronger brain-body connection

  • Pelvic mobility & balance through Strength, Fluidity & Awareness that can slow labour

  • Relief from common musculoskeletal imbalances

  • Preparation for all three levels of the pelvis to support an efficient birth

 

Your body was designed for birth—let’s help it remember how. With the proper knowledge and tools, you can step into labour feeling confident, prepared, and fully in tune with your body.

The information and practice you need - without fear or fluff!

Have You Ever Wondered What Your Birth Might Look Like?

How will your body know what to do?

It’s incredible—your physiology, hormones, and instincts are all designed to guide you through birth and bring your baby earthside. But modern life has interfered, making us forget.

Move Through Birth reconnects you to your body’s innate wisdom and gives you the tools to move through labor with confidence and ease. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to:

🔹 Experience birth as an ALTERED STATE—understanding how this shift supports labor.
🔹 Open your pelvis at all three levels to create space and move intuitively with your baby.
🔹 Work with your hormones and nervous system so birth can unfold smoothly.
🔹 Develop brain-to-muscle pathways that help you instinctively access each pelvic level.
🔹 Involve your partner with hands-on techniques that support and engage them.
🔹 Prevent or minimize common birth injuries by avoiding positions that close the pelvis.

Hands
  • What's Birthing From Within? 

  • Birthing From Within is an approach to childbirth that goes beyond just physical preparation—it honors birth as a deeply personal, transformative experience. Rather than focusing only on techniques or outcomes, this philosophy embraces birth as a journey of self-discovery, resilience, and intuition.

  • With Move Through Birth, we weave in Birthing From Within principles by helping you:
    ✅ Cultivate body awareness and trust in your own instincts.
    ✅ Move through labor with fluidity, breath, and emotional presence.
    ✅ Release fear and expectations, embracing the wisdom of the body.
    ✅ View birth as a rite of passage, not just a medical event.

  • What's Innate Postpartum?

  • Innate Postpartum Care is a traditional and holistic approach to postpartum healing, rooted in the understanding that the first 40 days after birth shape a mother’s long-term well-being. Developed by Rachelle Garcia Seliga, this perspective is based on ancestral knowledge, cross-cultural traditions, and modern insights into maternal health.

  • At its core, Innate Postpartum recognizes that postpartum is not just a recovery period but a rite of passage—one that requires deep nourishment, rest, warmth, and community support. The key principles include:

  • ✅ Deep Rest & Slowness – Honoring the need for stillness to allow for full recovery.
    ✅ Nutrient-Dense Foods – Supporting digestion, replenishing blood, and restoring vitality.
    ✅ Warming & Containment Practices – Using heat, wrapping, and bodywork to aid recovery.
    ✅ Community & Connection – Ensuring mothers receive care, rather than doing it all alone.
    ✅ Emotional & Spiritual Integration – Acknowledging birth as a profound transformation.

  • This approach helps prevent postpartum depletion, hormonal imbalances, and burnout, ensuring mothers feel strong, whole, and truly supported in the months (and years) after birth.
