Welcome to a transformative journey into the world of birth support with our comprehensive Peanut Ball Workshop, presented by the renowned Heidi Duncan, an Authorized Peanut Ball Trainer. After a brief hiatus, we are thrilled to announce the return of our much-anticipated in-person workshops!

Originally designed for physical therapy, peanut balls have evolved into an indispensable tool for birthing experiences. Join us for an immersive workshop that goes beyond the basics, led by Heidi Duncan herself. Uncover the multitude of positions and their strategic applications, both with and without epidurals. Yes, this knowledge is valuable for home births, too!

What's New?

Prepare for an enhanced learning experience featuring new content and an expanded format. Move beyond the ordinary side-lying and "pretzel" positions. Explore the versatility of peanut ball usage, understand the nuances of selecting the right ball size, and gain insights into optimizing birthing positions. This interactive session offers hands-on learning opportunities, ensuring you leave with physical practice and logical principles to employ the peanut ball confidently in any birthing scenario.
