Birthing From Within  –  Childbirth Preparation

As a birth warrior, what do you look like? What sounds do you make? What is your battle cry? How do you show your fearless, fierce nature? Find the place within yourself where this courage lies.– Pam England

BFW-200Are you expecting a baby and wish to prepare for birth and parenthood in a mindful, holistic way? Are you seeking more than the standard, run-of-the-mill childbirth education class?

Birthing From Within® classes encourage women and their partners to embrace childbirth as a meaningful and profound rite of passage. In essence, childbirth and parent preparation is about self-discovery, and through the teaching of pain-coping practices, interactive learning processes and creative self-expression, parents are able to prepare for whatever their birth experience has to offer.
