Hey there! When labor stalls, what tools do we really have?

• Do we simply wait and see?
• Transfer care if things don’t change?
• Rely on medical interventions like Pitocin?

While all of these have their place, relying only on them leaves a huge gap. As professionals and parents, we deserve more tools to prepare for and support birth.

The missing piece? Pelvic mechanics.

A deeper understanding of the pelvis and pelvic floor can help us:

• Prepare prenatally with targeted birth prep exercises
• Identify patterns that may contribute to restricted space or position challenges (like a narrow pubic arch or asymmetry in the pelvic floor)
• Notice external clues during labor that signal an issue before it becomes prolonged
• Offer movement-based strategies to create space in the pelvis and support progress

That’s exactly what we’ll cover in our upcoming Pelvic Mechanics for Professionals Workshop.

📍 Aberdeen, NC — Oct 4 at 10am​
In this 6-hour, hands-on course, you’ll learn:

• The anatomy and mechanics of the pelvis (inlet, midpelvis, outlet, and their sub-sections)
• Movement strategies to create space in each part of the pelvis
• Common pelvic floor and movement patterns we see as birth workers—and what to do about them
• Tools to support labor progress beyond Pitocin and transfer

We’ve applied for Continuing Education credits and will update you once they’re approved.

This workshop is ideal for:

• Movement professionals expanding into prenatal & birth prep
• Birth professionals looking to add hands-on tools to support labor
• Expecting parents who want to dive deeper into preparing their body and mind for birth
