Transformation Through Childbirth
Birth is a loving, exciting, raw, and sometimes challenging transition in life.
It requires a surrender, an openness, a heart-felt realness that knowledge alone WILL interfere with.
This day is a different take on traditional childbirth classes. The emphasis is on LOVE, ritual and hope and blends it with stages and physiology of labor and birth, staying connected as a couple, support (who to have at the birth, who not to invite), and planning for postpartum.
And so much more...
This is a day to fall in love with your partner (again), with a very special emphasis on partner preparation for the journey, acknowledging their vulnerability in this process and working to empower them and their emotional/spiritual role in this process. You will learn comfort measures for birth, confront fears in a safe environment and have a LOT of fun surrounded by other couples on their journey.
WHAT MAKES THIS CHILDBIRTH EDUCATION CLASS SPECIAL?
"I had read all "the books". Listened to the chime of advice from well-meaning women. Why didn't I feel "ready"? I realized after taking Katherine's class that I had been neglecting the spiritual side of the birth experience. Katherine provided the space to approach this major life change with the tender care and spiritual sensitivity it deserves. Her advice to give birth from my heart--rather than my head--re-framed my expectations of what a birth could look like. I left my time in this class feeling more connected to my partner, confident in my ability, and comforted to know I could love my birth."
- Jana, Mother of Samuel
