From the Inside Out:

Pregnancy and Birth Prep

This program includes the information that I believe all women should have to prepare for a vaginal or c-section birth.

What people are saying

  • Ashley B, Guelph

    The education and exercises each week enabled me to begin the reconnection with my body. Starting early on at 2 weeks postpartum really facilitated my recovery.

  • Kayla R, Ontario

    It really did help me make that mind body connection with my pelvic floor and being more aware overall. I also learned so much that I no longer have fear or anxiety towards my post baby recovery I think the way you speak and communicate resonates with me and I find you truly authentic in the way you deliver your message. It never feels fake, overly scripted etc. You always seem genuine towards everything you talk about and you can see your passion!
