What Sets Matribirth Apart?

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Instead of preparing women to do battle, prepping fathers with strategies for protecting their partners from abuse, and focusing on how to navigate “the system,” the Matribirth curriculum presents a real alternative to what passes for “natural birth” education, giving mothers and families a totally fresh perspective on how birth works, and their power to claim it.  

The program is grounded in these principles:

  • Physiological birth
  • Honoring motherhood and the sacredness of the family unit
  • Recognizing the simplicity of birth
  • Honesty and transparency regarding safety and risk
  • Deep respect for *all* women’s choices
  • The inherent biological normalcy of birth

MatriBirth Educator's Instructors

EMILEE SALDAYA

Emilee is a radical birth educator, birth witness, women's elevation coach, the co-creator of the acclaimed Radical Birth Keeper School, host of the Free Birth Society podcast, and the founder of Free Birth Society. 

Emilee started her birth work journey in 2003. Before long, Emilee witnessed the fundamental fracture that takes place when women give birth within the medical system. Rather than look the other way, Emilee chose to be the revolution she wished to see and transform birthing culture as we know it.

From the belly of the beast to a place of recognition and revolution, Emilee brings two decades of birth work experience and expertise to this space, having supported thousands of births, and knowing with certainty that freebirth has the power to change the world, one motherbaby at a time.

Emilee is warm, kind, fierce — and committed to giving women the kind of spacious witnessing that supports them to take radical responsibility and transform their lives. Whether you want to unpack your birth story, transmute trauma into power, learn essential self mastery tools, or explore all things freebirth, Emilee is an unmatched coach and facilitator. 

YOLANDE NORRIS-CLARK

Yolande Norris-Clark’s passion and mission in life is to dispel the myth that childbirth is an ordeal from which women must be “delivered”, and to celebrate the reality that birth is biologically designed to be ecstatic, delightful, joyous, and beautiful: a catalyst for self-love, healing, and insight, as well as the formative first step on the path to peaceful parenting.

It’s Yolande’s conviction that women who are awake and birthing their babies in power will change their own lives, and the world. Yolande recently gave birth to her eighth baby, who, like his siblings, was freeborn at home.

She is the author and co-creator of Free Birth Society’s highly acclaimed online course, “The Complete Guide to Freebirth”, and her first book, “Portal” will be published in 2023.

A compassionate and sought-after coach, Yolande has supported many hundreds of women and families all over the world in establishing the tools, mindset, and perspective that result in peaceful birth and connected mothering.

How it Works

It’s likely the only time we're offering it live because it’s part of a new program that we’re launching this fall called MatriBirth™ – a certification program for freebirth educators.

When you enroll in MatriBirth Family™, you receive Free Birth Society’s bestselling online course, The Complete Guide to Freebirth for free. It's the perfect in-depth companion to support your integration of your freebirth journey.
