Course Basics

  • What is Spinning Babies® Birth Preparation in 60 Minutes?

    • This self-paced course, created by Gail Tully and the Spinning Babies® team, teaches daily movements and breathing techniques to support a more comfortable pregnancy and smoother birth.

  • How is this course different from the previous Birth Prep Online course?

    • The original course offered a comprehensive, in-depth experience with extensive instruction for $247.95. This streamlined version is designed for busy parents who want clear, practical tools to use right away. This course features a simpler structure, updated visuals, and a more intuitive learning experience that integrates seamlessly into daily life, along with a more accessible price. 


  • What makes this course different from other childbirth classes?

    • Unlike many childbirth classes that focus on procedures or routines, Spinning Babies® emphasizes physiological birth. You’ll learn how to support your baby’s journey through the pelvis using balance, movement, and breath — tools that invite ease and confidence.

  • Who is this course best suited for?

    • This course is especially supportive for first-time parents and anyone looking for a more intuitive, body-centered way to prepare for birth. You don’t need any prior experience — just curiosity and care for your body and baby. If you had a previous difficult birth experience and are looking for a better one this time around, this course can set you up for a more connected and embodied experience.

  • When should I take this course during pregnancy?

    • This course can be started at any time during pregnancy. 

  • How long does the course take to complete?

    • The course is self-paced and can be completed between 60 and 90 minutes. We recommend continued daily practice as well as using it as a resource during labor.

  • Do I need a partner to participate in this course?

    • A partner is not necessary. A support person may be needed for specific techniques (Jiggle, Forward-leaning Inversion)


  • Can I take this course if I’m late in pregnancy?

    • Yes. These gentle tools can be helpful whether you're early in the third trimester or just weeks from birth. It’s never too late to bring more balance and connection to your experience.


  • Do I need any special equipment?

    • No special equipment is needed. You can do most movements using your own body, a chair, or an exercise ball. We offer easy alternatives throughout the course so you can practice with what you have.


Course Content

  • What topics are covered in this course?

    • This course covers a range of topics designed to help you feel more comfortable during pregnancy and prepare your body and baby for an easier birth. Topics include anatomy, breathing, daily activities, balancing, baby’s position, and birth basics. 

  • Does this course include any Spinning Babies® techniques?

  • Does this course cover labor and delivery strategies?

    • Yes, this course does cover strategies to support you during labor and delivery. While it focuses on daily preparation, it also includes essential techniques that can be used in early and active labor, as well as in everyday situations you may encounter. 

  • Is this course only for people planning an unmedicated birth?

    • Not at all. These practices can support all births, including medicated births and planned cesareans. This approach can be especially helpful when labor is slower or more complicated, giving you more ways to support progress and comfort.
