Birth preparation teacher training
Learn how to teach and market birth-changing workshops
Next training date TBC. Last course finished February 2024. Please get in touch if you are interested in the next one.
A wonderful addition to your weekly pregnancy yoga classes, to take the antenatal education to the next level for your pregnant clients and their birth partners. Comprehensive antenatal education including hypnobirthing and biomechanics for birth.
Learn to teach a very practical four-hour workshop that is packed full of tools for the expectant parents. The training includes a lot of background information, a safe container to process your own (or family/ friends') experiences of birthing and a 121-mentoring session with me. All the resources you will need to teach the modular workshop are provided including relaxation tracks and PDFs of handouts.
A great income stream where you can use your unique skills as a yoga teacher, sharing how movement, breath, sound and touch can support their nervous system during labour. Have eight couples in your first workshop and pay for the cost of the training.
Includes marketing and business systems with tried-and-tested templates.
What People Are Saying
"I was attracted to Tessa’s Birth Preparation Course as I was looking for something extra to be able to offer my pregnancy yoga clients. The course is a blend of hypnobirthing and active yoga poses which I can see appealing to second time parents and those not wanting to commit to a full hypnobirthing course.
Tessa is extremely knowledgeable and her friendly approach made this course a joy. It was also a fantastic opportunity to meet other pregnancy yoga teachers. Tessa delivered the training in the order in which the course would be delivered to clients, with additional time to ask questions and discuss the material. She provided copies of the resources she uses, enabling us to start teaching the content straight away. Her ongoing support has been invaluable when I have had a question or just wanted to run something past her.The thing I particularly liked about the course is the flexibility.
I found the content could be split into different units, which I have been able to offer to clients as bespoke packages. Some of my students were already completing hypnobirthing classes, and therefore did not feel they needed to revisit some of the topics. Instead, they were able to pick those which they felt would be useful and relevant to them and compliment their hypnobirthing classes. The resources provided have been great and there is the opportunity to record the scripts in your own voice and add/amend the materials to make them your own.
I have taught this course to a number of clients over zoom and have received good feedback from them."

What People Are Saying
“I attended this training with Tessa Venuti Sanderson last year and even as a midwife (and pregnancy yoga teacher) with extensive antenatal and birthing knowledge it really helped me process my thoughts of the current situation in maternity services and how to structure what info and resources to include into one workshop!! I learnt more about hypnobirthing techniques and some great nuggets of knowledge for advertising and online apps and resources! I feel so much better prepared to give my clients the resources they need to best navigate their birthing journey. Tessa generously shares her experience and resources so you are ready to teach your workshop by the end of the course!! I would highly recommend😊”

"I engage really well with Tessa’s teaching. The birth preparation workshop training is full of useful knowledge and information to help prepare pregnant students and their birth partners for the labour and birth. Lots of gems to take away as well as business information and how to set out the workshop when you come to teach it yourself."
