Childbirth Prep Classes
The best way to have an empowering birth, is to have the knowledge of what to expect, for all scenarios, along with preparing your body for the work that it will be doing.
Body Preparation & Labour Positions
This private class is essential for anyone expecting a baby.
Living our day to day lives, especially with minimal movement, repetitive motions, overworking, poor posture and habits, or even living with injuries can imbalance our bodies.
Our pelvic and uterine muscles and ligaments play a HUGE part in how baby engages and descends through the pelvis.
If our pelvic muscles and ligaments are imbalanced, it can put the baby into an off position, making labouring baby down even more difficult, resulting in a longer, harder labour.
By lengthening, balancing and toning your muscles and fascia, while also finding better ranges of motion before you go into labour, then your body can work more effectively to bring baby down and out. Preparing your body during pregnancy can also help reduce risk of aches and pains during your perinatal journey.
During this private workshop (done in the comfort of your home) I will teach you which stretches to do during your pregnancy, and go over labour positions, so that hopefully you can have a smoother labour and birth.
