An Extra-Ordinary Childbirth Class
What do YOU need to know to give birth?
The essence of childbirth preparation is
self-discovery, not just assimilating
medical information.
You need two kinds of knowing to birth from within.
The first and most basic is the intuitive knowing in
your bones. The second kind of knowing is modern knowing—being savvy about the birth culture and
the wide range of birth choices.
BIRTHING FROM WITHIN classes offer
you a soulful and holistic approach to birth
preparation that integrates both kinds of knowing.
Our classes prepare you to birth-in-awareness whether you are birthing at home, in a birth center, tipi, taxi or hospital.
Birthing from Within mentors believe that childbirth
is a profound rite of passage, not a medical event
(even when medical care is part of the birth). Parents
learn practical information through discussion,
videos, and activities; as well as empowering parents
to birth in awareness through creative approaches for
their childbirth education.
