Prenatal Partner Workshop/Class

Pregnancy is a time of growing, stretching and pushing the edges of comfort, both for the pregnant woman and her partner. In this workshop we will practice gentle, partner-assisted stretches that benefit both parties, along with simple breathing and meditative practices. We’ll also practice massage techniques to ease physical and mental discomfort. If you’re a pregnancy partner, this class can help you center yourself so you can be present, supportive and helpful through pregnancy, labor and delivery. If you’re a pregnant woman, this class is a great way to spend time with your partner and learn ways to cope with your body’s changes and the demands of birthing.

During Summer Quarter 2010 we are trying a Prenatal Partner class that will run for four consecutive weeks.  We felt that this might enhance the ability for partners to practice techniques during the pregnancy, so that each will easily rely on them during labor & delivery and beyond.

Date: Saturdays, August 7 – August 28, 2:00 – 3:30 p.m.
