Spinning Babies® Birth Preparation Class
Comfort techniques for pregnancy and labor
The Spinning Babies® Birth Preparation Class is not your traditional labor and delivery class. In this class, pregnant people and their support person will learn techniques to use during pregnancy and labor to help their baby find the optimal positions. We will explore the three balances which bring balance to your body and address any restrictions in your pelvis.

This approach can increase comfort during pregnancy and labor. The class is ideal for a pregnant person and their support person to take any time after 20 weeks of pregnancy.
