Body Ready Method is an approach to physiologic birth and birth prep. It comes from the gorgeous brain of an exercise physiologist turned birth doula, and it incorporates knowledge of how the bones, muscles, tendon & fascia of our bodies all work together continuously, combined with understanding of pregnancy’s demands on the body AND physiologic birth.
As a certified BRM pro, I use this framework to support clients in their birth goals, to create balanced and aligned posture, and move through the world in a strong and functional way.

FAQs
Is this like prenatal yoga?
It’s similar! You’ll receive a simple set of movements (3ish) to weave into your day, whether it’s when you wake up, getting ready for bed, or when you need a break from your desk. If you’re looking for more of a ‘class’ format where you dedicate 20min-1hr to flow in different moves, I highly recommend BRM’s Prenatal program, with custom flows for each week of pregnancy. I have a special discount code, shoot me a DM for it! This program, combined with your 1-1 custom moves, is simply chef’s kiss.
Can I keep running or lifting?
Great question. The latest research says YES! If you have an established thang, keep going! I recommend introducing something uniquely geared towards pregnancy as well. Imagine tying a kettlebell to your waist and walking around like that all day. Everything about your form changes. The good news is, the weight increases gradually.
Can I use these moves in labor?
YES! Ideally, our work together will progress over time. At your initial assessment, we might work on aligning the hips and upper body mobility (Yes, it matters for birth! It’s allllll connected, baby!) At your next appointment, look at that! Your hips are aligned. Let’s focus on releasing the psoas and supporting the nervous system. By the time you get close to birth, we’ll be fine tuning the finishing touches & supporting fetal positioning and engagement, and these moves are perfect for early labor.
What if I have an injury?
This is one of the best reasons to work with a 1-1 assessment! All injuries create compensation patterns, so training alignment prenatally is THE PERFECT TIME. You’ll not only lessen the chances of pregnancy discomfort, support a smoother birth and quicker recovery, but also decrease the chances of re-injury beyond pregnancy.
