Empowered Birth Education & Rebozo Wisdom

There is so much information on the internet! Trying to sort through what is relevant and applicable to your situation can feel paralyzing.

Wouldn't it be nice to have direction and input on what would actually work for your situation?

Our class is built around the birth you are planning. Learn helpful tips, tricks, and options to help you achieve the birth goals you have in mind.

Our goal is to make sure that you have the easiest time with the whole labor process and with recovery. You'll receive practical insights and techniques to help you rest, heal, recover, and rock birth like a warrior!

Most of the dads and partners we work with love the idea of being an involved support person during labor and birth.

But how exactly do you do that?

It's hard to know how to support the person you love when they are walking through a situation with so many unknown variables.

With this class, you will gain confidence in labor support.

You'll learn about the different stages of labor and how to effectively support your partner through each change.

You'll learn how to use the Rebozo safely to help support and massage your loved one. You will also learn some massage techniques and tips on breathing. This will help you be a better partner and coach during Birth.

You'll get hands-on practice and an opportunity to understand how the labor process works. This information will help prepare you and give you the tools you need to feel confident.

In our workshop, we say: "If you aren't educated about your options, you don't have any!"

A birth plan is not an itinerary for birth. Rather it is a wishlist of items and elements you want to be a part of your birth journey.

You will learn to look at birth from the eyes of an experienced birth attendant!

This will give you the foresight to plan for the unexpected and to be as comfortable as possible through the labor experience.

Get help with understanding all of the options for:

• ambiance and environment
• active phase of labor
• pushing phase
• recovery period
• baby care after you give birth
• infant feeding and care

There are so many unknowns during the labor and birth process. You will understand how labor progresses and how to cope with and support each change.

We will explore:

• progression of labor
• interventions during birth
• checking for contractions
• cervical exams
• when to go to the hospital
• what to do if your water breaks
• what to expect if things don't go according to plan
• transition and how to calm anxiety

There is so much value and information in this class! We go above and beyond to prepare families for birth.

But we simply can't cover every unknown, complication, or intervention that might surface.

Sometimes situations pop up in the moment, leaving you feeling vulnerable or pressured.

We reveal a framework to help you make strong decisions during labor. With this tool, you'll be able to tackle any situation with confidence and ease!

There are so many options with labor and birth, and all of them are unique and individual to your needs.

This class gives people planning a natural birth the tools they need to cope with pain and release fear and anxiety about the process.

We also review tools to keep labor moving if you plan to use an epidural.

Many of these techniques feel SIMPLY AMAZING on your body, especially during the third trimester.  Cope with pregnancy changes in the body by relieving hip pain, low back pain, round ligament discomfort, and more.

We cover:

• Breathing Techniques
• Position Changes
• Listening to your body's intuition
• Massage Techniques
• Rebozo Techniques
• Comfort when laboring, and pushing

This workshop is held at our clinic location off of NW 36th St and Portland Ave in Oklahoma City. 

We offer in-person classes so you can really get a feel for the techniques that we teach in the class. 

While hospital childbirth classes can be a good overview of birth, anatomy, and hospital procedure, they are explicitly curated by facilities. They are taught in large group settings to help patients understand what kind of policies, procedures, and interventions might be used in the hospital.

In other words, these classes teach you what the facility is looking for in a "good patient." And often they leave out information about options that are inconvenient, expensive, or time-consuming.

Our clients often take free classes and pay for our course to supplement and build on their birth knowledge.

We aren't paid by your doctors, nurses, or hospital. We work directly for you!

We are private educators and advocates. Our class is formed with consumers in mind; we give you information about advocacy and your rights during labor.

Yes! The class is helpful for partners and gives them the skills, knowledge, and reassurance to step in and be a fantastic support for you.

If you have a mother, family, or friend who will be a support person, they are also welcome to come along! Everyone attending your birth should understand their role in supporting you through this experience.

Doulas and other Birth Professionals may contact us privately to get Rebozo Certification and training for their private practice.

Most clients take this class around 28-34 weeks of pregnancy. 

This workshop will help you relieve pain and discomfort from the end of pregnancy. We love teaching this course and giving you skills, tools, and techniques that make pregnancy easier. Feel free to schedule whenever you feel this information could benefit you!
