Midwives/childbirth educators

Pregnancy yoga teachers continuing professional development with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli and Nirlipta Tuli

Training for midwives and for yoga teachers, dates for 2008 to be announced. This course can also be run in midwifery units for staff teams by arrangement. Please contact us to discuss your requirements: yoga@sitaram.org

Learn how to teach effective, enjoyable yoga birth ‘rehearsal’ sessions to expectant mums and dads. Develop practical skills to present yoga breath, movement and deep relaxation for labour and birth.

This weekend of continuing professional development draws on material which we present regularly for our pregnant students in our Sitaram birth rehearsals.

The weekend will include time for your questions, sharings and discussions. The format for sharing the yoga birth rehearsal material is based on our Yoga for birth one-day workshop, which was initially designed for midwives at King’s College Hospital Trust, but is now re-configured to meet the needs of pregnancy yoga teachers who wish to develop this area of work for their pregnant students.

On a case by case basis, this weekend may also be open to midwives and therapists who have personal yoga experience and who are working with pregnant and labouring women. Please email your details to yoga@sitaram.org to discuss this possibility.

If you are interested in attending this course, and want to find out more you are welcome to call Uma or Nirlipta on 07595 219 759 for a chat about it, or email yoga@sitaram.org
