Dancing Star Birth Class

I highly Recommend Dancing Star prenatal classes to all our clients. The classes really make a difference how women feel about birth. I can always tell who has taken Birthing from Within when we’re in the labour room. There is a feeling of calm, knowledge and empowerment. The partners especially — they are so well informed that they are able to be great support.”
