The Calmer Birth Express Workshop is a great alternative for anyone who cannot commit themselves or does not wish to complete the full HypnoBirthing Course. It is also useful as a refresher course if you have used HypnoBirthing in the past. The Calmer Birth Workshop is an alternative NOT a substitute for a full HypnoBirthing Course.
The Calmer Birth Express Workshop has been devised to teach you valuable techniques for birth in just one day. These techniques with practice help you in having the birth you desire.
Classes
The classes can be either in a small group or on a 1-2-1 basis.
They are suitable at almost any stage of pregnancy. It is never too early or late to start.
