Our online birth classes have all of the components of a traditional class for hospital birth, with a strong added focus on movement, breath and mindfulness - yep, we can teach all of that online! We believe that understanding how to connect to our body, breath and mind in labor, as well as understanding the birth process and potential medical interventions, sets laboring couples up with the tools needed to make informed decisions when necessary and to open to the mystery of birth with confidence.
Our online classes still include group work, small group conversations in breakout rooms, and plenty of conversation - all from the comfort and safety of your home.
Our birth classes include:
- The “how” and “why” of using movement in labor
- Lining baby up for a straightforward birth
- Anatomy and physiology of birth
- Stages and phases of labor, including the power of pushing
- Connection to breath in all stages of labor
- Massage and relaxation techniques to reduce fear and invite release
- Support person’s role throughout labor and birth
- Birth options including unmedicated, medicated, and cesarean birth
- Common interventions and how to navigate them with knowledge
- Virtual tour of UVMMC labor and delivery unit with photo slideshow of laboring positions in a room.
