There’s something special about gathering in a room with colleagues, exchanging ideas, practicing hands-on techniques, and learning from expert instructors in real time. While virtual education offers flexibility and accessibility, many pelvic health practitioners are eager to get back to the connection, feedback, and tactile learning that only in-person courses can provide.
If you’re ready to step back into a live classroom, Herman & Wallace has a robust lineup of in-person courses designed to sharpen your clinical skills, deepen your understanding of pelvic health, and connect you with a like-minded community of learners.
Here are some of the in-person courses currently offered:
Pelvic Function Series (In Person)
This progressive pathway is ideal for clinicians looking to build their foundation and then layer on advanced skills.
Specialty In-Person Courses
Dry Needling and Pelvic Health Series (In Person) – This hands-on series provides targeted training in the use of dry needling for pelvic conditions.
Pessaries and Pelvic Rehab – Gain hands-on training in assessing, fitting, and managing pessaries for pelvic organ prolapse and incontinence. Learn clinical considerations and practice fitting techniques in supervised labs.
High Intensity Perinatal Athletics Practicum –Designed for practitioners working with pregnant and postpartum athletes, this course blends lecture and lab to address clinical decision-making in high-intensity training contexts like CrossFit, HIIT, and Olympic lifting. Understand how to keep your athletic patients safe and strong throughout the perinatal period.

We are preparing for a busy second half of the year, and are seeking hosts for our satellite and in-person course offerings. If you'd like to cut down on travel and earn a free course registration, consider hosting a course with us this year! Satellites require a minimum space for 16 attendees, and in-person courses need to be able to accommodate 30+.
We always want to hear from those interested in hosting our courses. We work with healthcare organizations of all types, sizes, and locations. Please, Contact us about hosting Pelvic Function Level 1 or any other course!
There are two formats of course which you can host, and they are described below.
Satellite Lab Courses (such as those in the Pelvic Function Series)
This is when the instructor presents lectures remotely via Zoom to several satellites at once for a scheduled course date while on-site teaching assistants guide participants at each given location with questions and labs.
Satellite lab events can be great for clinics that have space for 16+ participants, and the following equipment:
In-Person Courses (such as Modalities and Pelvic Function)
At in-person courses, registrants, teaching assistants, and instructors gather at a single location for lectures and labs. In-person hosts who are located in densely populated areas are prioritized and who have a demonstrated history of successfully hosting courses.
In-person courses can be great for clinics that have space for 30+ participants, including one instructor and 2-3 teaching assistants, and the following equipment:
Remote Courses
Remote courses take place entirely on Zoom and do not gather in lab groups. However, if there is enough interest in taking a course, it is possible to host one of these courses as an in-person course.

Hello Practitioners!
This Monday I would like to share a very special invitation with you. Join us in Seattle, WA for HWConnect 2023 - the first-ever conference from Herman & Wallace, the leading provider of continuing education to pelvic rehabilitation professionals. HWConnect 2023 will run Friday, October 6 - Sunday, October 8 and comprises 10+ contact hours of continuing education.
The Saturday night Keynote Presentation will be given by Diane Lee, an internationally-recognized expert with 40 years of clinical experience in thoracic, lumbar, and pelvic disability and pain. Diane will be delivering our Saturday night keynote address and will be presenting her latest research on diastasis rectus abdominis.
Registration includes access to all scheduled lectures and receptions, as well as a Teachable (a digital learning platform) course which will contain additional resources and a conference manual. Cocktail receptions will follow the speakers on Friday and Saturday evenings, so attendees will have a chance to have fun and socialize with each other, HW faculty, and conference presenters.
We have secured a room block and special pricing for registrants of this conference. Staying at the host hotel will be the most convenient option, so we highly encourage everyone to make arrangements via this URL before the room block is full!
After years of pandemic quarantine and Zoom meetings, we feel the need to gather together and connect our community again. HW Connect is an opportunity to meet with colleagues and friends old and new, and a unique chance to learn new skills and information from some of the leading voices in our field. Speakers will cover a range of topics related to pelvic rehab.
We’re several years into our COVID pivot, and while the remote and satellite learning options work great for delivering education, what’s missing is the opportunity to connect face-to-face with our community. Participants miss the chance to gather in person, and so do we.
HWConnect is a chance for friends and colleagues old and new to connect with one another and with some of the founding pioneers in our industry. Putting on a big conference is something we’ve wanted to do for years. After two years of Zoom meetings, now is the time.
We can’t wait to connect with you in October!
