Welcome to Birth Humanity

Hi! I'm Elise Bowerman, founder, guide, and mom.

My life's work is devoted to helping women remember who they are by reconnecting with their bodies, their inner knowing, and each other.

For nearly 20 years I've guided various modalities such as dance, Reiki, yoga, womb circles, Ayurvedic and homeopathic medicines, along with childbirth and postpartum doula support.

Part of my work involves strengthening communities beyond my own by offering two courses designed for anyone who want to integrate prenatal and postnatal yoga into their services.

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
