Welcome to Michigan School of Traditional Midwifery. Since its formation in 1988 and formal founding in 1993, MSTM has become regarded by many as the foremost school of traditional midwifery studies in America and is indeed the very first
midwifery school in the world to offer
a Traditional Midwifery Diploma
program.
MSTM is the first Traditional Midwifery school to ever be licensed by the State of Michigan and is the only school in North America offering a vocational diploma in Traditional Midwifery studies. As such, MSTM is known for leadership in educational innovation through the development of distance learning programs related to natural childbirth.
Our programs offer flexible opportunities to study without leaving home so students can meet
family and personal obligations while pursuing an education.
Our purpose is to provide education that facilitates academic advancement, personal growth and self-enrichment. At MSTM, students are regarded as unique, self-motivated individuals who are passionate about natural birth and willing to take charge of their own learning experiences. Students are respected as being creative achievers and encouraged to be lifelong learners. MSTM students are a culturally diverse community of free-thinkers who are inspired by the process of birth and motivated to make a difference in their birthing communities.

Mission
 To offer quality
educational programs through
correspondence/assisted studies, self-enrichment
programs, workshops, scholarships & outreach programs.

related certificate programs that will

about her body and foster self-confidence about her
body functions and the processes that occur
naturally.
We respect the process of birth as
a normal body function and support a woman's right to
birth naturally.
We believe that midwifery is an
ancient, time honored, woman-centered art - a vocation undefinable in
medical terms.
We support and advocate for the
preservation of community created Traditional Midwifery.
We support and advocate for a
birthing woman's right to choose her place of birth and
birth attendants, i.e., home or hospital birth, assisted
or unassisted birth.
We respect the traditions and
diversity of women around the globe.
