THE MYSTERIES BIRTH SCHOOL

Courses & Workshops

Travelling Workshops

I will visit your group and host a one, two, or three day workshop.

Weekdays or weekends; your choice!

I am available anytime, depending on where I’m traveling to. Here are some ideas:

  • blessingway

  • study group

  • birth attendant mini-course

  • village prenatals

THE WORKSHOPS

These workshops are for mothers-to-be, with or without their partners, also for birth attendants who want to learn more about out-of-system birth, and they can also be useful for family or friends who may be attending a homebirth.

We will:

  • answer YOUR questions about your birth plans and dream

  • explore the realities of giving birth at home, undisturbed

  • learn about risks and give you a chance to explore your concerns

  • celebrate women and birth!

The price per day is $500. You are expected to provide a space (a living room is fine!), and meals, accommodation and planning is collaborative.

ABOUT THE SCHOOL

The Mysteries Birth School grew from a unique program I’ve been teaching since 2003. In 2011, I published “The Birth Conspiracy”, a book that has been used by hundreds of pregnant mamas and doulas, and is used as a text in several other training programs.

I taught my first Traditional Birth Attendant seminar in 2023, and it was a huge success. My classes are intense, intimate, fun, and challenging. This year, I have invited a young Birth Attendant, Emily Galvao, to join me as a companion teacher. 

One unique aspect about my program is that I am always available for you, whether you’re attending as a doula or a Birth Attendant. I am there for you to consult about the women you’re supporting, and I am always available for a storytelling debrief after a birth.
