Description
If the workshop is already fully booked, let me know if you want to be put on the waiting list or would like to organised a one to one session.

A highly-individual session for 3 birthing couples only at my lovely home studio! It's a very practical session and perfectly compliments other ante-natal courses (eg NCT, Bump and Baby). This workshop is designed for pregnant women/people to attend with their birth partners.

A hugely popular workshop delivered to hundreds of birthing partners in Oxford for over 15 years. It covers tried and tested methods to help you prepare physically and mentally for childbirth and learn how to work as a team to make it a powerful and life-affirming experience.

We dive deep into ‘Planet Birth’, covering how to move through a ‘surge’ or contraction, how to breathe and relax, what positions to use, how to conserve your energy, how to deal with the strong sensations and experiences of childbirth, how to support the hormones and physiology of childbirth, and top tips for tricky moments.

The focus is on providing you and your partner with an amazing and powerful tool-kit you can use whatever path your childbirth experience takes.

We cover massage for pain relief, dynamic yoga moves, effective birthing positions, relaxation and breath work for every stage and mode of childbirth. We will also cover rebozo and Spinning Babies techniques, so that you can feel confident about the birth of your baby.

A small workshop where you will receive individual attention. Extensive handouts and ongoing support are provided.

Many women say at the end of the workshop ‘I’m really looking forward to it now!”.

Birth partners report they have a profound feeling of being genuinely prepared and useful by the end of the session!

Please note - refunds are available up to 4 weeks before the workshop. If you need to cancel after the free cancellation period (4 weeks), and the place can be filled you will receive a refund, but this cannot be guaranteed. For those who can’t attend as baby has other plans and has come early or illness prevents you from coming a complementary Mum & Baby Yoga Pass is offered.
