WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Katie + Jordan
Feeling relaxed about the birth, a lot of practical advice was given, including a lot of ways that your partner can be useful during birth.

Millie
It was good to go through some practical stretches and exercises. I felt so much better after the class, just receiving supportive, informative words and encouragement from both Sarah and Jo was really reassuring - it was the extra bit I needed to give me that boost of confidence.

Katie
I would recommend it to anyone giving birth, so much helpful and practical advice given for the pregnancy and birth. Both my husband and I feel confident and know more about what to expect!

Katherine
The movement and exercise learning were also really helpful to manage aches and pains during pregnancy and prepare me for birth.

Millie + Josh
I’d say it’s worth the time! Really informative, encouraging and both Jo and Sarah make it all the more worth it with their expertise and warmth.

Josh (birth partner)
Great class! As a birthing partner it opened up conversations about labour and birth that we’ve needed to have and better equipped me with support techniques.

Millie
Overall, great practical class that really gets you thinking about your labour and birth on your terms. Empowering and a great place to explore your options when considering a natural birth.

Yes (I feel more confident now), because I understand a bit better how the body works. Even in ways I never expected
Take the time to attend this class to enrich yourself about how every muscle react to the work it does to bring your baby safely into the world. It's worth every cent.

I never knew what a big difference my husband can make during labour until I attended this class
