Facilitated by Jenny Blyth & Fiona Hallinan
Experience the nurturing dynamic that is created when participants together interact to discover the natural wonders of their own bodies! Learn to tenderly and effectively work with communication and touch to help others in pregnancy, birth and beyond. See and experience the body beyond what you believed was possible.
These workshops present an extraordinary blend of body knowledge, body awareness, body work and profoundly attentive tender touch – that has been appreciated by hundreds of parents-to-be, midwives, doulas, osteopaths, chiropractors, and bodyworkers.
This is a unique perspective that creatively weaves complex anatomy and soft tissue knowledge into easy yet highly effective hands-on body skills.
All of this essential birth knowledge and invaluable material is shared in a relaxed style.
It is practical and do-able in any birth environment. All of this information can be easily passed on and shared.
This is a body of fundamental knowledge missing from conventional (professional) midwifery, doula and birth education training.
Whatever your background, there is always more to discover.
Don’t miss this precious opportunity to delve deeper into effective ways of facilitating birth and positively enhancing your practice.
Between them, Jenny & Fiona have 60+ years experience working with birthing women and their bodies, and facilitating workshops.
They are highly intuitive and skilled bodyworkers with a particular fascination for exploring and understanding women’s bodies in relation to birth. They have assisted an enormous number of women to connect with, understand, admire, prepare and heal their sacred pelvic space.
Please contact us if you are interested in hosting us for a workshop in your country or community. We are happy to work with parents, birthworkers, bodyworkers and mixed groups of both. We are also able to tailor a workshop or presentation according to your theme or needs.
