Improve labor outcomes with a Spinning Babies® Foundational Workshop. Learn our physiological techniques that offer a complete system of birth preparation and labor ease concepts to improve labor with the baby's position.

The 2-day workshop covers the same curriculum as the 1-day workshop at an easy-to-integrate pace with additional time for more hands-on practice. Feel confident in how to apply the Spinning Babies® approach to help birthing families in community, clinical, and hospital settings.

Spinning Babies® begins with fetal rotation to reveal the lesser-known physiology of birth anatomy. Your passion, our approach. Start seeing solutions in labor progress with this new lens on childbirth.

After this workshop you will be able to:

  • Facilitate comfort in pregnancy and ease in childbirth for your clients
  • Improve fetal position without manipulation of the fetus
  • Identify issues faster; gentle actions to shorten a long labor or avoid a cesarean
  • Use less (or no) force to resolve malposition and labor dystocia
  • And much, much more!

Spinning Babies® Three Principles SM, Three Balances SM, and Pelvic Levels Solutions SM offers the world’s first complete system of birth preparation and labor ease concepts using baby’s position. Physiological techniques change the effective size of the pelvis through the body’s own innate capacity to resolve or prevent labor dystocia.

Completing a Spinning Babies® Foundational Workshop is the prerequisite for our Spinning Babies® Integration Workshop and advanced training programs.



Having lived my all my life in Queensland, it feels wonderful to be contributing to and changing birth culture within this state. I love teaching this workshop, and helping participants understand why the Spinning Babies® techniques are effective. Pelvic anatomy is demystified, and bodywork and birthwork brought together for all to appreciate.


We welcome all professionals who serve people in their pregnancy and birth. Ideal for midwives, nurses, nurse practitioners, doulas, and childbirth educators. Also attended by obstetricians, family medicine doctors, prenatal yoga instructors, chiropractors, acupuncturists, massage therapists, perinatal case managers, and community health workers. Recommended for people new to Spinning Babies®, as well as those who have been practicing it for years.

CEs are available for some participants, as noted in the Continuing Education section.



Teas and refreshments will be served.

Please BYO lunch or pop into town.


Please bring:

  • a massage table if you have one
  • a yoga mat if you have one
  • a pillow or cushion for head and leg support during the experiential practice
  • socks to wear
  • a notebook and pen
  • a water bottle

Please wear loose, comfy clothing. We need to be able to feel anatomincal landmarks and soft tissue movements and textures through clothing. This means no thick firm jeans or active wear leggings. Keep it loose please.
