Thanks Laurence for a very informative and relaxing course. It had been 8 years since my first child was born and the course was an excellent reminder of breathing and relaxation techniques. My husband was so relaxed during the course that he fell asleep during the relaxation at the end! I used all the techniques and as a result had a very easy and quick 2nd birth.

We really enjoyed the Labour Preparation workshop with Laurence. We feel much, much more prepared for the different stages of labour having attended, and have some great breathing, poses and relaxation tips to have the most positive birth we can. Would highly recommend to other pregnant women and their partners, especially first time mums!

Hi Laurence,
Thank you so much for the Labour Prep Workshop, we both found it really useful. I slept so well that night too!
I’ll download the mp3’s and listen to them before bed and keep up with the breathing techniques, I’m feeling more confident now, so thank you very much. I feel that I’m doing all I can to help ease pain and a long labour, so that has increased my confidence and reduced my anxiety.
See you tonight!
Claire.

Excellent course ! Recommend to anyone expecting.
Great teaching from Laurence. Really informative yet relaxed. My husband wasn’t sure what to expect but so pleased partners are encouraged to attend and learn their roles plus help remember all that you learn. Thank you so much !

Thank you Laurence – your class was so valuable to both myself and my partner Charlie in terms of teaching us about labour and preparing relaxation techniques for coping with each part. I have been listening to the CD and MP3s and feel increasingly prepared! I have also written my birth plan with confidence! We will let you know when baby arrives!

Brilliant workshop! After a challenging first labour, I was a little nervous about my second labour. This workshop gave me more confidence and tools to focus on. I had an amazing natural and very quick labour. Thank you!!

I attended the labour preparation workshop in both of my pregnancies. The first time, it helped me feel a lot less anxious about labour. I used many of the breathing techniques and active labour positions and I really believe it helped me to have a relatively quick and straight forward, natural birth. The second time, it was such a useful refresher and reminder of how much help it is to keep the mind calm for as long as possible. Laurence is really well informed and I find her honest approach incredibly reassuring, I would recommend this class to all mums to be.

Just wanted to let you know that Max and I welcomed baby Constance into the world this morning at 3:40. She weighs 7lb 5oz and were overwhelmed by her.
Thank you for all your support, I honestly think pregnancy yoga made my labour what it was, four hours of active labour with baby delivered naturally. Without your breathing techniques I would have been lost! I’ll be back on my mat just as soon as I’ve healed. Look forward to seeing you soon!

After going the class I feel more clear about the phases of labour and what “self-help” techniques – breathing and positions- I can employ to help me cope when the time comes. It also help me focus on, and construct my birthing plan. Laurence offers a wide range of experience and advice, and it was good to be able to explain to my husband what I would need him to do to support me as well. A worthwhile workshop!

A great class covering breathing techniques and positions, and other general tips for labour which I found really useful as a first time mum. After the class I found listening to the CD really helpful for the remaining weeks of my pregnancy. Now holding my 2-week old son I’m sure this class is what helped me get through my labour without any pain relief; I knew the positions I wanted to be in and the breathing techniques and visualisations I’d learned were invaluable. A really useful and practical class.

Brilliant insight into how to help yourself during labour. I was apprehensive about labour but now feel more in control having learnt positions and breathing exercises to help. Great class with friendly group and knowledgeable teacher. CD to take away is great for practise. Would definitely recommend to anyone about to become a mum!
