5-week Practical Birth Prep course
Most hospital and NCT antenatal courses are information driven: telling you about different pain relief options, how many people are in the room when you have a caesarean etc.
18 years of teaching pregnancy yoga and birth education has shown Tessa that people learn best when they are doing. You will remember the breathing exercises, how to relax, what positions to use if you have tried them rather than just heard about them.
The practices are spread over 5 weeks so that you can learn a range of well-tested techniques that can transform your birthing experience whatever the right birth is for you. If you don't have 5 weeks left, no problem! All of the resources are available the moment you sign up so you can watch all the birth know-how videos back-to-back if you want!
What’s included:
9 birth know-how videos so that you know why the practices work (including hypnobirthing, hormones and the brain; pelvis and different positions for labour; birth preferences FAQ)
8 relaxation / visualisation tracks (from 8 to 26 mins to fit the time you have)
the 5 most popular and effective breathing techniques
5 videos with different yoga sequences, 1 dance video, 1 pelvic floor audio
5 handouts to help you remember the information during labour
The beautiful thing about practicing yoga is how great you feel, right? I bet you also feel like you know your body a lot better after going to yoga classes. With this course, you have a whole tool kit of techniques to listen in to your body and be able to make yourself more comfortable in pregnancy and during labour.
"I wanted to say how much Ben and I have enjoyed your birth course; it truly is wonderful and so informative.
It has made me alter my birth plan slightly (in a good way) and given me more confidence to say what I really want rather than just leave all decisions to the medics and I want to thank you for giving me the courage to voice my true thoughts.
I know I will also use the relaxation tracks during labour too, the music to the hypnobirthing track is just so dreamy!" Sophie Capo-Bianco, Oct 2020 (and used again in August 2023!)
I've also included a bonus section because not all pregnancies are the same. Whether you're pregnant with twins, discover your baby is breech or develop pelvic pain, I've got you covered. There are also bonus videos on acupressure points to help with pain relief and baby wearing tips by experts. Join the Facebook group and you can ask me questions that come up.
I couldn't resist adding a postnatal yoga nidra track to support you in those early days.
So if you want to prepare by practicing the techniques that will help, rather than just hearing or reading about them, this is the course for you.
