Practical Birth Preparation Class

Why choose this workshop?

This class is, by definition, practical. Many antenatal courses provide lots of information, but often miss out on the practical tools that really support your labour and birth experience. This is for you and your birth partner to learn and practice techniques that will support you through your labour and birth. You’ll learn the significance of the connection of your body and mind and how you can nurture this throughout your pregnancy to support your labour and birth. We explore ways to manage pain, breathing techniques, hurdles you may encounter and ways to overcome them. You will understand the mechanics of your body and learn how movement and positioning can really change the experience of your labour and birth. Your birth partner will understand their role in your journey, and how to support and advocate for you.

What people are saying

“My partner and I attended a private Birth Preparation course with Ro and it was absolutely phenomenal! We learnt a huge amount that wasn't covered in our NCT class. I was so impressed by all her expert knowledge and feel so much more confident about giving birth. I can't recommend this enough.”
- Natasha

“This has been a fantastic investment in my pregnancy! Ro is attentive, knowledgeable and extremely personable. I have thoroughly enjoyed and benefitted from her pregnancy yoga classes and my partner and I chose to attend her Birth Preparation Workshop, which I would thoroughly recommend. Thank you Ro for empowering us with knowledge and practical actions that we can use to support the birth of our first child!”
- Charlotte

“Ro's 'Yoga for Birth Preparation' was fantastic: Calming, restorative, encouraging, incredibly informative... The practical strategies we tried together and the extensive follow up resources have allowed us to feel so much better prepared for what is to come. We recommend this to all couples and can't thank Ro enough”
