"Freedom to Birth" is Birthfocus' signature childbirth
education class which prepares couples to both gain an
understanding of the physiological process of labor and
to find ways to connect with their body, mind and spirit in
order to have the empowered birth of their choice.
Through a combination of the Lamaze childbirth
education model, using evidence based research to
understand your pregnancy and the full experience of
birth, and Karen Brody's
FEAR to FREEDOM method
participants in "Freedom to Birth" will be offered a full
range of knowledge and tools for making informed
decisions and staying present in their experience.
