Body Ready Method®

Body Ready Method® Training

There’s nothing more frustrating than seeing your client struggle to progress in birth and not being able to help them move along faster. You might feel like you aren’t quite sure which tool to suggest (even though you’ve learned many).

With the BRM® Training, you’ll emerge as the birth pro who knows how to get your clients moving to improve fetal positioning & pelvic space, hones your eye to better understand the possible sources of common aches & pains, learns which moves progress labor most & how to practice the ones best suited to your client’s body, and improves your ability to understand the big picture yet notice all the small things AND what to do with this information. Join us for 16 weeks of revolutionary learning and community + help us shift the paradigm of prenatal prep and birth support.
