Women are often under prepared for the pushing part of labor, which may contribute to many hours of pushing, preventable tearing or medical interventions. Whether you are planning a physiological birth or an epidural;

I created my Pushing Power class to help you prepare ahead of time to push safely and effectively and minimize damage to your pelvic floor muscles for optimal pelvic health and a full postpartum recovery.

“I have had the privilege to work with patients in labor who have taken Chantal’s Pushing Power workshop. I can say without exception that they know how to push in a way that both protects the pelvic floor and is incredibly effective. Three cheers for Chantal!!!”

DR WORTH, OBGYN, Village Obstetrics
“Chantal created a safe space for all the mamas to talk openly with support and empowerment. She taught us techniques to relax the pelvic floor and prepare for the final stage of labor. I was beginning to have anxiety about labor and delivery, but after the workshop, I felt more confident and in control of my body. During my birth, I kept remembering to breathe and OPEN as we had practiced. I’m so grateful to have attended her class and to have the tools to help create the birth experience I wanted.”

SARAH DASS
“Chantal’s Pushing Power workshop is exactly what you need to feel confident in the second stage of labor. From anatomy, to breath, to positions, you will leave with a thorough understanding of how you can work with your body and your breath to effectively push out your baby and protect your pelvic floor. I highly recommend including this class in your birth prep package!”

CHANTAL EDER
“Chantal’s Pushing Power workshop was incredibly informative and empowering. She takes the time to explain what actually happens during labor and provides insightful tips and techniques to prepare for the pushing stage. I left with a clear vision of how I could move through this intense experience with confidence and ease. Chantal helped me release a layer of fear I never knew I had and gave me the courage to confidently face one of the most important experiences of my life. The birth of my first baby.”

ERIN OGLESBY, Cranial Sacral Therapis
“I am so grateful for the information provided in Chantal’s Pushing Power workshop. My favorite part was hearing Chantal’s approach to the last phase of pushing, allowing the natural rhythms of the body to flow and honoring the woman’s body. Highly recommended!”

Dr. EMILY SPLICHAL, Functional Podiatrist
“Chantal’s Pushing Power class was both informative and experiential. She provided moms-to-be and their partners with the knowledge to understand the anatomy, then guided everyone through specific movement exercises to reinforce the concepts and practice for the big day. Chantal helped alleviate anxieties by patiently answering questions and sharing her experience attending births over the years. If every woman giving birth had the opportunity to take this class and learn how to protect the pelvic floor during labor and delivery, I would have a lot less patients!”
