The United States is the ONLY developed country with a maternal mortality rate that continues to increase. Black birthing people are 3 to 4 times more likely to die in childbirth than white birthing people, regardless of education, income, or other socio-economic factors.

The information gathered in a childbirth class can help develop the skills and knowledge base for an empowering and positive birthing experience. The opportunity to build a foundation of evidence based information and usable skills and techniques for labor and birth should be available to everyone.

For Birth Professionals
Blossoming Bellies pelvic biomechanics, labor physiology, and advocacy workshops aim to provide birth professionals with the knowledge and skills to support healthy birth, particularly in regards to utilizing movement, understanding the role of pseudoscience and racism in the classification of pelvic shape, and supporting birthing people of color, those with long labors, and those with posterior babies. Choose from two workshops (or take both), Creating Space: Pelvic Dynamics and Fetal Positioning for an Efficient Birth and Pelvic Shape, Fetal Positioning, and Obstetrical Bias: The Role of Pelvic Shape Classification and Optimal Fetal Positioning in the Perpetuation of Bias in Childbirth.
