Classes at an affordable price

Here at Body Owned Birth, we use the Green Bottle sliding scale model to help make our classes more accessible while still honoring the time, energy, and care that goes into this work.

With thanks to Alexis J. Cunningfolk for creating this model, we approach pricing with trust and fairness, acknowledging that everyone’s financial reality is different and all are welcome here.

Choose the price that fits your needs. No questions asked.

Diagram titled 'The Green Bottle' illustrating levels of personal financial freedom from basic needs to expendable income in three green bottle shapes. The first bottle shows meeting basic needs, the second shows meeting needs with some debt and solid employment, and the third depicts stress about meeting needs, debt, and limited or no expendable income.

For a sliding scale to work, it depends on honesty and a sense of shared responsibility.

I don’t ask for income proof, I trust that you’ll choose the rate that feels right for where you’re at.

Together we can make education about pregnancy and birth more accessible to everyone !
