Why choose between being comfortable at home or getting to know other expecting parents? DouLaBarge designed this class to be more like Virtual + where you can connect, release, strengthen and prepare as a community, all the while still have one on one support.
First 4 classes of the series will take place online where you can get to know other expecting feelings, share your excitements and concerns with each other. The last will be in person. During the in person meeting you will get to utilize Caitlin’s extensive knowledge of birth physiology. She is happy to walk you through laboring positions and perfect your partner’s comforting touch technique, or whatever else you might need.
Embrace the natural power of birth in our transformative hypnobirthing classes, held in the serene Thurgood Marshall Room at Morningside Gardens. Nestled near the peaceful canopy of the gardens and the joyful energy of the local playground, this class is led by a unique instructor whose diverse background empowers your mind-body connection. Bringing the physical intuition of a former personal trainer, the presence of an actor, and the storytelling of a playwright, I guide you through deep relaxation and focus, helping you script your own confident birth story.
