How does this series differ from the 1-day workshop?
These weekly evening classes are led by an experienced and diverse team to bring you a different kind of prenatal class. Geared towards midwifery patients, these classes will dive deep into helping you discover your inner knowing, trust the birthing process, and feel empowered and informed. These classes combine meditation, mindfulness, knowledge, connective and interactive exercises, and hands-on practice to complete your birth preparation.
​
Led by Carly (Registered Midwife), Kayla (Certified Doula), Erin (Certified Doula), and Yaron (Life Coach), this series will bridge the gap between the knowledge and education you're seeking with the soulful and spiritual aspect of birth; surrender, fear release, intuition, and inner knowing.
​
All of the same topics and exercises will be covered as the 1-day workshop. Some information will be delivered through video recordings to allow for more time to dive deep into the transformative exercises and activities we have planned.
This workshop is NOT for you if you are:
-
seeking a teacher/student classroom style of learning
-
interested in passive learning (these classes are engaging and interactive)
-
wanting to be told how you should give birth by an authority figure
-
uncomfortable with inclusive language and an inclusive group setting (ALL are welcome in this group)
-
not willing to challenge or reflect on ANY of your beliefs about childbirth
Tuition: $180/couple
