Come Bounce, Breathe, & Relax with Me

In this 2 1/2-hour workshop, we want to give you the skills to use the birthing balls, peanut balls, CUB, rebozo, massage, and other techniques. These skills assist with relaxation prior to and during labor whether at home or in the hospital.

The techniques that you learn in this class will also help you before and throughout labor whether you choose an unmedicated or medicated birth. You will enjoy all the practice time that comes with this class.

Prerequisite:  You must take the 1-day marathon or the 2-evening prior to taking this class unless this is your 2nd baby. You will learn the fundamentals in the marathon classes that we will build upon in this class.

We will discuss and explore:

  • Laboring and relaxation positions
  • Working with a birth ball, peanut ball, and a CUB chair
  • Comfort using the rebozo
  • Basic techniques for back massage
  • Partner involvement
  • How to comfort and support mothers

Recommended to bring:

  • One bed pillow
  • One blanket
  • Yoga or exercise mat (if you have one)
  • Wear comfortable clothes to get down on the floor and on a birth ball.
We recommend this class be taken at the end of the 2nd or the beginning of the 3rd trimester.

Fee: $25.00 per couple, only one name per couple when registering.
