Ontario Body Awareness Workshops

My first continuing education workshops held in Ontario were a blast! The one-day Body Awareness workshop I taught is a continuing education course for birth professionals and teaches:

· How to map a pelvis and teach pelvic mapping to parents
· The importance of knowing your pelvic shape and outlet as it pertains to movement and positioning during labour
· To understand and teach techniques to reduce internal pelvic tension - an important factor in second stage failure to progress
· To teach women how to effectively communicate when they experience, feel, hear or see something in labour
· How to communicate effectively through word and touch in response to a birthing mothers needs
· To teach the vital importance of using breath effectively as a focus for reducing tension and restoring themselves
· To understand, be able to teach and use effective new positions to open pelvic outlet diameters as they pertain to the mother’s pelvic shape and vital new birthing techniques to effectively progress labour
· How to teach effective assertiveness to birthing parents

Sudbury and Mississauga where my stops in July. Body Awareness workshops will be held November 3 in Alberta and late next March (dates to be announced) in Ottawa, London and Toronto, Ontario.

I spent several extra days on holiday in Sudbury. The weather was fabulous, the friends I met were amazing and I had a wonderful time. Thanks Ontario!
