Luna Movement currently offers Birthing From Within classes in a full 12-hour 4- or 6-week series (depending on schedule availability) or in a 5-hour weekend crash course. Classes are held at Health First Wellness Center, 7264 Argus Drive, Rockford IL, on weekday evenings or weekends. Contact us with interest in setting up a class!
Birthing From Within is a childbirth prep course that is evidence based and current, with a focus on real tools to use in birth and in life. We utilize the right and the left brain—facts and evidence paired with subconscious exploration of hopes & fears.
My goal is to help you & your partner feel CONFIDENT, to raise awareness for birth OPTIONS, and to PREPARE you while expecting the unexpected…
As a certified mentor with a background in physiology, core recovery, prenatal wellness & yoga, and doula services, this class may include:
- anatomy of pregnancy & birth
- stages & hormones of labor
- optimal positioning
- active tools for labor / pain coping techniques
- exercises & stretches
- decision making for the unexpected
- partner support
- acupressure for birth
- birth art & self discovery
- a labyrinth guide to birth
- cesarean role play
- confidence to birth in awareness
Class sizes are limited to 3-5 couples. Clients have access to a lending library and my support through the rest of pregnancy with any questions via email, text, or phone.
12-hour series: $275/couple
5-hour class: $125/couple
Includes pain coping CD for home practice, handouts, pregnancy journal & coloring pages, and a folder of local resources. Clients can also get 50% off CUB birthing stool rental.
