Body Ready Offerings
I’m on a mission to improve birth outcomes and empower birthing families and the forward-thinking birth professionals who serve this community!
It is an honor to share these proactive birth prep programs, which are shifting the paradigm of prenatal prep, birth, and postpartum recovery worldwide.
As a lifelong learner and physiological birth enthusiast, I am now gearing up for the start of my 4th cohort and into this game-changing program.
Beginning as a curious student back in (2021/22), then as a Group Leader (2022/23) supporting other birth professionals in our collective learning, then as a Teacher’s Assistant (2023/24), ensuring peer-professional proficiency, and also training and certifying as a Body Ready Birth Teacher (2024).
I’m returning as a TA for the Body Ready Method Pro and Body Ready Birth Teacher Trainings this fall. I am learning, growing, and supporting my colleagues and peer professionals to bring the best prenatal care and birth prep support to my community and beyond.
I would love to learn more about your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum goals and explore the right program for you.

Applying the principals of the Body Ready Method of applying "Balance before Force", is my Body Ready Induction Protocol.
Before your medical provider wants to start labor with all the “things”, let’s balance the tissues in the birthing person’s body and help baby find optimal fetal positioning with the space available to them!
Through application of the Body Ready Method tools and techniques, I can support you prior to your induction to create temporary, acute releases, through specific massage, adjustments and hands on releases to minimize the need for interventions (aka adding force) to support your body’s natural ability to find greater range of motion through labor and birth.
$225 for a :90 minute session on location at your home or place of birth.

I Believe . . .
Our bodies are designed for the process of pregnancy, birth, and recovery and we need to prepare for this process.
There are many “Best” ways to birth our babies.
Aches, pains, and dysfunction identified as "just a normal part of pregnancy" isn't normal or optimal for the work of birth and parenthood.
Lifestyle habits can create imbalance in our body, but we can return to homeostasis with a mindful approach to restorative body balancing.
An integrated approach to pregnancy and birth preparation can reduce and even eliminate the need for medical interventions.
The best comfort measures for birth are the ones practiced through deep prenatal preparation.
I am a certified Body Ready Method® Active Pro applying a 5-pillar approach to pregnancy and prenatal prep, birthing time support, and postpartum recovery focusing on:
Upper Body Mobility || Core || Pelvis || Pelvic Floor || Movement Patterns
This program is for you if you want:
To prepare your body for conception and the changes with pregnancy.
To get on the pathway of the birth you desire.
To create a supple and strong body specifically for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery.
To experience some of the best prehab to prevent common aches, pains, alignment complaints, core and pelvic floor dysfunction.
To learn more about the physiology of birth and how to optimize your baby's positioning during pregnancy and childbirth.
To prepare for your advocacy in how you would like to move through your birthing time.
A successful VBAC.
If any of these reasons appeal to you or if you have questions.Adjusting to the new demands on your core, pelvic floor, alignment, and whole-body systems is an immense physiological process.

Own your pregnancy with the Body Ready Prenatal movement program to help eliminate the common aches and pains through pregnancy while preparing key muscles for any type of labor. This comprehensive program will support your body through the transition of birth and into postpartum recovery.
My professional training is current, and I am continually updating these skills as the understanding of birth physiology evolves. I offer individual assessments with training and guidance that is comprehensive and thorough in matters of alignment, breathing strategies, balancing the nervous system, and optimizing overall functional movement patterns. I help birthing people thrive with their pregnancy, childbirth experience, and recovery. Once we've established the strategy to practice moving in a way that brings improved body balance, strength, and a full range of motion, we release restrictions on movements that will help you achieve an optimal flow state for pregnancy, birth, and recovery.
When the body is supported explicitly for the effort of pregnancy and birth, the body is primed for an uncomplicated experience and smoother transition into postpartum healing.
Find support, explore possibilities, and move with me in public or private sessions.
