Sun 12 & Sun 19 Oct 2008: Richmond **Filling fast**

Come and join us for the next workshop, and build on your knowledge about birth and gain a profound sense of trust in your innate capacity to achieve a safe, satisfying and calm birth experience. This workshop will provide you with:

- a detailed understanding of how the process of labour and birth work
- practical strategies to enhance your capacity to birth normally, including how to achieve deep and focused relaxation during labour
- tools to increase the efficiency of your labour, remove your fear and enable you to work with the pain
- real skills for partners to provide that essential support during labour.

What the previous workshop’s participants had to say about their experiences:-

“It opened my whole understanding about childbirth!” Yusnizah, First-time Mum-to-Be

“The workshop was informative, yet not biased. Really enjoyed Victoria’s interesting presentation and passionate and engaging style. I now feel empowered, excited and in awe of the process.’ Lucille - First-time Mum-to-Be

“Got some good strategies for reducing intervention, clearer about when they’re not necessary, feel more like we’ll be in control of our birth now, rather than just along for the ride.” T.F. First-time Dad-to-Be

“Very illuminating and gave me confidence - almost looking forward to the birth now!” First-time Dad-to-Be

The workshop is very interactive, practical and fun, even partners say so! (more…)
