About the course
Course location & structure
Due to current COVID restrictions, all classes take place online via Zoom. These are live classes that cover the full hypnobirthing course content so you don't miss out on anything even though you're learning remotely.
​
I currently offer one-to-one (private) classes for pregnant women and their birth partners. These private classes mean the sessions can be tailored to your specific needs.
​
The course is divided into 4 sessions which are typically taught over a period of 4 consecutive weeks. Each session is approximately 2.5 hours long and they are scheduled at mutually convenient dates and time.
