Note: Our 3 Day Intensive Class is going to be offered as a 2 Day Class starting in September.
This class is based on the premise that birth is one of the most empowering, life-changing experiences a woman can have and that choice and individual preferences are paramount. Aside from educating expectant moms and their partners on the physiology, hormones and emotions of birth, we practice a variety of comfort and relaxation techniques and positions which enhance the progression of labor. Our 9 hours of class time includes videos, discussion of informed choice, common interventions, pain relief options, (pharmacological and non pharmacological), and hospital and home birth options.
The course fee includes a spiralbound binder of local resources, web resources, diagrams, drawings and articles from Michel Odent, Pam England, Jean Sutton, Penny Simpkin, Henci Goer, Mothering Magazine, CIMS, ICAN and many more.
