Creative Movement for Birth
This class draws on
the body wisdom of yoga and dance, offering pregnant women the
opportunity to learn practical techniques for a smoother, easier birth.
In this class, women and their partners will learn how to use pillows,
birth balls, chairs, birth dance, and the physical support of their
partner and/or doula during birth. Creative Movement for Birth is the
ideal supplement to childbirth education classes, and is useful no
matter what your birth plans may be.
Learn simple techniques which contribute to:
-Increased relaxation and comfort during labor
-Correction of posterior and asynclitic presentations that can otherwise lead to back labor or stalled labor
-Improving baby's position for quicker progress in labor, and
-Helping baby move more smoothly and easily into the world.
Preregistration

receive individual attention. Partners, friends, and doulas (with a client) are welcome.
