“This course is worth every cent...and more! Maha is undoubtedly gifted in what she does. Her words are deeply nourishing and her teachings are precious.
As soon as I started this course I felt more connected to my body, to my baby, to my birth, and to my feminine wisdom than ever before!...Not only physically, but also mentally and emotionally. I feel more balanced and grounded. These are much needed experiences in third trimester. Thank you Maha!! I hope to meet you in person one day.”

My Palestinian grandmother birthed her nine babies in our family birthing house, in the village of Al Qubab Palestine that no longer exists...yet lives forever in my heart.
Through her legacy, she showed me that the birth experience builds the strong foundations of Mothering that flows through the veins of every woman.
After birthing my first son Kailash in 1996, I was completely in awe of birth's power.
I remember thinking to myself, why doesn't anyone speak about the majestic and liberating qualities of birth? Why are these aspects so hidden while the negative, sensationalized, stories get all the limelight?
Story of EmbodyBirth™...
I am Maha and I am the mother of three beautiful children. I birthed my last child, my beautiful daughter Aminah, when I was 46 years of age - a home water lotus birth.
Since 1997, I have been an international, independent childbirth educator, activist, mentor, counselor, speaker, and advocate for public and natural term breastfeeding.

So many childbirth education classes are based on what an outsider can do for the pregnant mother, as though they are the only holders of the knowledge.
What I absolutely love about Maha's EmbodyBirth™ program is that it inspires mothers to find that wisdom and birth map with their baby for themselves.
It's a beautiful and heart opening program that every pregnant mother will adore and any teacher will love to teach!

BellydanceBirth™
Historically, the practice of belly dancing during pregnancy as a way to prepare for labor and childbirth has been used for centuries in the Middle East.
In recent years, belly dancing has emerged in the West as a powerful prenatal exercise.
The gentle, circular movements of this dance provide low impact exercise that:
Promotes good posture
Naturally lubricates joints
Reinforces abdominal control
Eases discomfort in pregnancy
Strengthens the pelvic floor
Reduces labour pains
Help position baby into an optimal position in the pelvis
Assists the mother as she moves through labour contractions (expansions) and rhythms.
Brings awareness throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum recovery.
EmbodyBirth™ is the first and ONLY childbirth preparation program that shares BellydanceBirth® and includes these techniques in the program.
As the founder of this method of BellydanceBirth®, and having taught it since 1997, I can confidently say it is an art of grace, spiritual alignment, feminine embodiment, ancient wisdom and an enjoyable, gentle way for mothers to prepare for childbirth.
Having the knowledge of BellydanceBirth® can set you apart in your field of work as a doula...it's a skill expectant mothers (tired of the same old aerobic exercises) will value!
No dance experience is necessary and babies love the womb movements!
Learn about The Birth Dance...
Before EmbodyBirth™ a question kept flowing in my mind...when did womankind forget that we have the natural instinct to birth? Why do we give our power away to hospital staff and medical teams?
Maha program beautifully reminds us - birth is not an emergency, it is a spiritual emergence.
With this knowledge of EmbodyBirth™, I will continue my passion of helping women re-connecting to their natural state where they are the expert of their own body.

FAQs
-
The name “EmbodyBirth™” is a reflection of how we need to be in our bodies (physical, emotional, psychic, spiritual etc) for birth with our babies.
Tuned in and connected when we can fully embrace every raw unfiltered unfolding moment with all emotion in the birth experience. Leaning into rather than resisting is the key to embodiment, as is birthing in safety.
By opening to this kind of intentional path of meeting everything is truly being one with the experience of birth. Body, mind, heart, Spirit with baby. Here we truly embody birth.
-
EmbodyBirth™ is a philosophy and a movement. It has been described as a "living art". It was developed with community philosophy that upholds the values and virtues of all women globally birthing in freedom. It does not teach a series of steps to follow externally.
It is not a "how-to" guide for birth because every woman already knows how...they just need support and love to awaken the innate knowledge and knowing that lives within with her baby.

Since taking Maha's program, my approach to birth has become much more spiritual.
The portion of BellydanceBirth® was so amazing! Maha has a unique background which has given her the ground roots and knowledge of this amazing art of belly dancing, and how it can help prenatally and in labour to bring awareness to the woman and offer her empowerment.
Thank you Maha, for giving me a more spiritual approach to birth!
