Birth Preparation for You and Your Birth Partner
With Emma Stein & Francisca
Join us for a comprehensive and hands-on Birth Preparation Partner Workshop. This workshop is designed to empower both birthing individuals and their partners or birth helpers with practical tools for labor and birth. This four-hour workshop takes place in a welcoming environment, creating a calm and supportive space for learning and connection.
Our approach to birth preparation is holistic, inclusive, and professional. We combine physiological knowledge with yogic and traditional practices.
Who is welcome?
This workshop is for you if you’re giving birth or supporting a loved one who is. No prior experience is needed — just a willingness to learn and support each other!
Come as you are, and leave feeling empowered, connected, and ready for birth.
Together, you and your birth partner will explore
• Stages of labor – understand the progression of labor and the tools that can be used in each stage.
