Labor And Delivery 101: A Workshop


Labor and Delivery 101
A Workshop
Saturday, September 26
at Area Yoga 144 Montague 
3:30-7pm
In this 3-hour workshop, our pregnant mothers-to-be, along with their birth partners, will gain the necessary tools to help manage with labor, delivery, and the birth of their baby.

As partners, you will be learning and practicing breathing techniques, positions to help labor progress, positions that help facilitate pushing, and hands-on comforting skills.

You will also learn and practice meditations to calm the mind, body and soul during your most challenging moments. 

The first third of the workshop will be a discussion of anatomy and stages of labor. 
Your birth partner for this workshop may be your spouse, significant other, parent, sibling or cherished friend.

All mats and props, and birthing balls will be provided.
Snacks also will be provided along with some fun intermingling time.

This workshop is being produced by Brooklyn Heights Prenatal, taught by Jesse Pournaris, and held at Area Yoga Montague St. The cost is $125 per couple.
