We currently do not have course material focusing on scheduled or planned C-sections but please use the “Contact” page to let us know this is something you are interested in.

The offered courses are never meant to replace the advise given to you by your advanced practitioner (i.e. midwife, doctor, physical therapist…). They are simply guidance on how to balance naturally occurring birth with necessary or beneficial medical care.
