FUNCTION, STRENGTH & HEALING

 


WHY LEARN MORE ABOUT THE PELVIC FLOOR?

This unique training maps out ways to increase awareness of the multi-layered pelvic floor with the aim of improving the overall quality of your clients’ life.  It offers an opportunity to bring more vitality, pleasure, and ease to an area that is often left in the shadows due to life circumstances, taboos, or past trauma.

Understanding the core system from within sheds light on how the body functions as a whole. For people experiencing pelvic floor imbalances—such as incontinence (urinary or fecal leakage), disconnection or numbness, hypertonicity, prolapse, constipation, or chronic pelvic pain—learning how to access this area is often a key part of recovery.

This training offers a broad perspective through several lenses— visualization, scientific, yogic, somatic, cognitive, and emotional—allowing for deeper understanding and more “a-ha” moments. Learning to work with the pelvic floor in this way supports not only movement practices, but also everyday function and well-being. 

WHO IS THIS TRAINING FOR?

Designed for yoga and pilates teachers, personal trainers, physical therapists, bodyworkers, and healthcare professionals who are interested in better understanding how to support their clients, students, or patients in pelvic health. 

The range within this field is vast (from postpartum recovery to prostate cancer rehabilitation, as well as digestive conditions, bladder pain, sexual health, and broader musculoskeletal patterns—all areas in which the pelvic floor plays a significant role). Seasoned movers who wish to better understand their own body, support healing processes, and learn how to recruit the core more effectively are also very welcome.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

The training is interactive. What you bring with you, your personal experience, professional background, questions, and perspective, is of real value to the process.

We will work as a group, in pairs, and individually. You will learn how to observe and understand what you see in the body in the context of pelvic health, and how to guide others clearly and safely. 

This training is based on The Wrobel Method, a whole-body approach to pelvic health that moves beyond isolated exercises, restoring function through breath, movement, and awareness.

Some of the content you’ll learn: 

  • Anatomy 

    • Anatomy in action: understanding structure and function, as well as the physiology of a healthy pelvic floor. Discover from within the complexity and responsiveness of the pelvic floor as a layered system interconnected with other parts of the body.

    • The role of alignment in pelvic floor health.

    • Why kegels (Danish term: knibeøvelser) are often not the answer and how to replace those with an empowering and more nuanced approach. 

    • Common pelvic floor disorders and related conditions..

  • Embodiment

    • Practice sessions led by Leah, based on The Wrobel Method, allow you to experience and embody the material directly.

    • Breathing patterns that support pelvic health.

    • Logical and adaptable exercise sequencing for different circumstances and physical or emotional conditions.

    • The role of a regulated nervous system—safety, and also a sense of lightness and humor.

  • Processing 

    • How personal experiences can settle in the body (it is said: “the issues are in the tissues”), and how this shapes patterns of holding and movement.

    • Exploring these patterns and our attention through a yogic lens—ethical principles (yamas and niyamas), the five layers of the body (koshas), and more subtle systems such as chakras and vayus.

    • Journaling, active listening, holding space, and observing others.

    • Understanding what a trauma-informed approach means in this context.

  • Passing it on 

    • Learning to trust your creative process—explorative, precise, and grounded.

    • Refining language and cueing to better communicate both the how and the why.

    • Practical pelvic floor exercises that include both activation and relaxation.

    • Supporting clients, students, and patients in living with more ease and capacity.

  • A WhatsApp group will be created so we can share notes, questions, and stay connected throughout and after the training.


Testimonials

~ Irina Shklovski (Copenhagen, Denmark)

Leah’s work with the pelvic floor has changed my life. After struggling with over a decade of severe stress incontinence, I can now go for a run without any concerns. This is truly life-changing. Working with Leah has also profoundly altered my yoga practice, changing my understanding of core activation and alignment and allowing me to get so much more from every asana. My understanding of what constitutes the pelvic floor went from simply thinking about kegel exercises to discovering a huge range of activation and movement that made my yoga practice overall more nourishing and fulfilling.

~Lisa Whiting, pelvic floor specialist (FL, USA)

Leah is kind and gentle in her approach to teaching and is always very professional.  Leah has been instrumental in helping me find comfort in silence and breath. She is an amazing resource for those interested in pelvic health and her training is a must for anyone with pelvic floor dysfunction!

~Martine Bjerke, chiropractor & yoga teacher (Copenhgaen, Denmark)

Leahs Pelvic floor training was truly wonderful! Leah managed to hold a safe and warm space with loads of ways to dive into the practice of the pelvic floor. As a chiropractor it has opened up a new way for me to approach patients with pelvic floor injury and trauma. 

~Stefanie Jolak, pelvic floor health awareness activist (Copenhagen Denmark)

Suffering from pelvic pain myself, the course gave me the perfect opportunity to connect the dots between the knowledge and experience I already have with yoga and pelvic pain. I was not in a good place physically and mentally when I came to the course, but Leah provided a safe space for sharing and learning for everyone. I initially attended the course to receive different exercises for pelvic pain, but I left with so much more than that. I left with a different perspective on both my personal pelvic pain condition and on the importance of yoga as a tool for recovery, but also on how I want to pass the practice on to others. 

~ Molly Wheeler (CT, USA): 

Leah is a healer. I worked with her privately (remotely) for several sessions. Through these meetings, she shared language and methods for pelvic floor strength and reconnection that have had profound impacts on my strength, confidence, and connection with my own body. She lit a path forward, giving me skills and awareness that I use every day. I can't recommend her and her gifts enough.
