Have you taken a Spinning Babies® Foundational Workshop and used our approach at births? Do you love how Spinning Babies®  has enhanced your skills and knowledge in supporting birthing families, but there have  been times when you didn't get the desired results--leaving you to ask the question "Why"?


Our advanced Integration Workshop builds on the Foundation curriculum by offering a deeper dive into the Spinning Babies® approach. Through case studies, enhanced hands-on practice, and interactive small group discussions, this workshop hones your skills to enhance your practice and improve birth outcomes.

The Spinning Babies® Integration Workshop begins with a review of the Spinning Babies® paradigm, builds upon previous understanding and expands your knowledge:

  • Refine your use of The Three BalancesSM 

  • A deeper look at the anatomy of birth

  • Extensive discussion and practical adoption of the Pelvic Levels SolutionsSM

  • Describe signs and symptoms of anatomical imbalances that affect pregnancy and labor

  • Comprehensive birth case studies

  • Respond to common barriers to integrating Spinning Babies® into practice: epidurals, second stage, communication skills, and more!



Upon completing the Integration Workshop, you are qualified to apply to become a Spinning Babies® Certified Birth Professional. To achieve this status you must register to complete the online learning and assessments and pay the certification fee of $250, which covers the first two years! Once certified, you will also gain access to:

  • Quarterly webinars for ongoing education with CE credits.

  • A listing on the Spinning Babies® website so new clients can easily find you or verify your experience.

  • A Spinning Babies® Certified Birth Professional badge to use in promotion or on your CV to highlight your expertise in physiological birth practices.



This workshop is reserved for providers and birth workers who serve people in birth and have attended a Spinning Babies® 1 or 2 Day Foundational Workshop and have at least 3 months experience applying the approach in practice before attending the Integration Workshop.
