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; it's instinctual. 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.
