Welcome to Birth Humanity

Hi! I’m Elise Bowerman, founder, teacher, and mom.

For well over a decade my life’s work has been in birth education, fertility, prenatal, and postnatal yoga.  Empowering women to consciously bond with baby, gain confidence in preparation for childbirth, feel good physically, and receive the support every birth-giver deserves.

I am still committed to helping moms understand the sacred and powerful phase of life they are in through my Registered Prenatal Yoga School, and birth work as a doula. As someone who grew up living a holistic lifestyle, the guidance received is from a perspective of wholeness to develop functional patterns of prevention and healing.

I’m a mom. I remember this phase of life and wish someone held my hand with loving wisdom to celebrate this momentous time. Let me be a soft shoulder for you to lean on.

More About Birth Humanity
As a prenatal chiropractor, I have worked closely with Elise and many of her prenatal yoga students in the past 2 years. I consistently find that the women under my care that are also attending regular prenatal yoga classes with Elise experience less discomfort in their pregnancy, report stronger emotional connections to their bodies, and they consistently state they feel better prepared for labor and delivery. If you are looking for a way to safely exercise but also want a beautiful way to connect with your body prior to delivery seek out classes with Sweet Momma Yoga. Lastly, Elise goes above and beyond to create a sense of community for her students. She has created a thriving group of moms that support one another outside of the classes and virtually. - Kelsi McClure, DC, Lone Tree CO
I’ve participated in Sweet Momma Yoga during both of my pregnancies and have benefited each time. Even on days when I feel tired and just wanted to put my feet up, I always felt better after class knowing that I am taking the best care of myself and my baby. Elise does an amazing job of making all of the moms feel welcome and comfortable no matter what previous yoga experience they’ve had. I got more out of Sweet Momma Yoga than I ever expected, benefiting both my pregnancy and birthing experiences. I would recommend to any expecting momma! - Deirdre L., Livonia MI
