Journey into Childbirth Labour preparation for expecting parents.
Description This course is designed to prepare couples physically, emotionally and practically for childbirth and the early days of parenthood. Using the innovative techniques developed by Pam England, author of "Birthing Within" we learn how "to birth with our bodies, not with our heads." Couples practice breathing, movement, sound and supportive touch: practical, body-centred strategies for labour and birth.
Class discussions include natural and medical intervensions, role changes in becoming mothers and fathers, breastfeeding and new baby care.
Instructor Karen Weinthal is a certified childbirth educator, and taught at Women's College Hospital for 17 years. She has provided service as a doula, breastfeeding consultant, and private prenatal instructor over the past 20 years. She is the co-founder and past co-director of Baby & Me Fitness. Currently she is completing Yoga Alliance Certification in Yoga Therapy.
