Home   About Me   My Classes   Why 12 Weeks?   Course Content
      Classroom instructions include: group interaction - visual learning from: DVD's, fetal and pelvic models, and charts. performing natural breathing and relaxation practices, guidance in nutrition and fitness for a healthier labor and birth, partner/coach practice in massage techniques - acupressure points - demonstration/return demonstration of comfort measures - and couple-focused activities throughout class series. The class interaction is interesting & fun!

     In each class, 30 minutes of focused practice is on relaxation, labor comfort skills, or doing Labor rehearsals. Couples see an increase in their skills level as they work with these techniques in class observed by the instructor and at home on their own, as well as reading their Bradley® Student Workbook.

     Results can be phenomenal and a parents' focus on the preparation and classwork really shows up in our birth stats.

     Our student statistics show how self-motivation and focused education can affect birth outcomes. 
 *  92%  vaginal births  -  08%  cesarean births
 *  60%  in hospital - 35%  birth center - 05%  home birth
 *  80%  have no medication  - 20% have some medication

     [My records show that, of my students' midwife attended births, (whether hospital, home or birth center) 95% had a vaginal birth. 97% of those midwife attended births took no medications at their birth]
