We offer you a hearty welcome to our Philadelphia conference. This is one of the richest programs we have ever offered, with classes for everyone, whether you are a seasoned or aspiring practitioner or an activist. We are especially excited to bring you two full pre-conference days on Traditional Midwifery Skills—a Midwifery Today first. We are also featuring the Motherbaby International Film Festival as a part of this conference, brought to you by filmmaker and distributor Diana Paul. Saturday evening’s cabaret is always a bonding experience and a blast, and is meant to showcase your talents—birth-related or not. We’ll have times of fun, mentoring, sharing and learning at this conference.

Midwifery Today Eugene Conference

R Haasch — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 00:00:06 +0000

I am really getting excited about our conference coming up in Eugene. These conferences are a time to renew old friendships and make new friends, in addition to learning new ideas and techniques.

We have whole day of educational sessions on a variety of topics, including Massage, Abuse and Trauma, Beginning Midwifery and Developing Midwifery and Doula Skills. There are classes on body work for the pelvis, birth around the world, hemorrhage, aromatherapy and so many technical and artistic subjects. The conference has a lot of great teachers, including Ina May Gaskin, Michel Odent, Gloria Lemay, and almost 25 others. There is so much new information that I’m not sure which classes to go to, despite having attended over 50 of our conferences! I am finding so much new information that I want to share through conferences.
