About This Event
You already know how to support a textbook labour. This workshop is for the ones that aren't.
The posterior baby that won't rotate. The asynclitic head. The labour that stalls at 6cm for reasons no one can quite name. The mother who's exhausted and the clock that keeps ticking.
Most of us were trained in what to recognise far less in what to do with our hands and her body in the next ten minutes.
That gap is what Optimal Maternal Positioning fills. 2 day full intensive experience.
**Body workers who don't attend births - Day 2 is ALL about applying OMP in a birth setting. If you do not attend births and wish to only attend day 1 only - Please email us at [email protected]
***Morning tea, LUNCH, afternoon tea plus tea and coffee will be provided on both days!
Registration Policy
This event is non-refundable. However, your ticket may be transferred to another eligible participant with prior notice.

What You Will Gain
Clinical Depth & Applied Understanding
A live, interactive OMP workshop combining theory with practical application. You will develop a clear framework for supporting maternal alignment and pelvic balance during pregnancy, labour, and birth.
Many midwives have shared:
“Why weren’t we taught this at university?”
OMP bridges that gap.
Confidence in Any Birth Setting
Whether you work in hospital, birth centre, or home settings, you will gain tools you can apply immediately.
OMP equips you to respond skilfully when labour slows, stalls, or deviates from plan using practical maternal positioning techniques grounded in physiology.
Expert-Led Training
Ginny Phang-Davey has attended over 1,500 births across hospital and home settings and brings over two decades of clinical experience in birth work, midwifery, and biomechanics-informed practice.
In addition, you will gain access to:
* A private professional forum
* A private Facebook community
* A growing global network of 450+ birth professionals
This community supports ongoing discussion, case review, shared learning, and professional growth.
Practical Tools for Measurable Results
You will learn:
* Techniques to support pelvic alignment during pregnancy
* Strategies to reduce discomfort and enhance functional mobility
* Positioning approaches to optimise labour progress
* Decision-making frameworks when labour dynamics change
OMP provides actionable strategies that can influence outcomes and enhance maternal experience.
Ongoing Professional Community
Participants are welcomed into a supportive professional network of midwives, doulas, childbirth educators, and maternity care providers committed to advancing maternal-centred care.
Informed & Empowered Practice
When professionals understand maternal biomechanics, they can better facilitate informed decision-making.
Informed choice is empowered care.
OMP equips you with the knowledge to support women in working with their bodies throughout pregnancy and birth.
Not sure whether you need both days?
OMP for Professionals is designed as a complete 2-day learning experience, and we strongly recommend both days for doulas, midwives and other professionals who support families during labour and birth.
However, we recognise that not every professional attending OMP works in the birth setting.
If you are a chiropractor, physiotherapist, osteopath, massage therapist, bodyworker or another professional who does not attend births, Day 1 can be attended as a standalone workshop.
Day 1: OMP Foundations - AU$450 AUD
Day 1 explores the foundations of Optimal Maternal Positioning, including maternal alignment, pelvic mobility, fetal positioning and the principles behind creating space for the baby's cardinal movements.
[REGISTER FOR DAY 1 ONLY CLICK HERE]
Do you attend births?
We recommend registering for the complete 2-Day OMP for Professionals program above so that you can continue into Day 2: Applied Practice & Integration.
Participant Testimonials
“The OMP workshop was outstanding. I learnt so much and feel better equipped to support women in my care.”
— Kate, HBA Practitioner & Childbirth Educator
“We have focused on optimal fetal positioning for decades. OMP brings the missing piece — starting with the mother. This is essential knowledge for birth workers.”
— Vicki, Doula & Childbirth Educator
“The concepts sound simple — but the impact is profound. The hands-on demonstrations, particularly the deconstructed pelvis, make everything click. I value the ongoing support and follow-up.”
— Debra, Midwife
