Welcome to the Active Birth Centre

 



Welcome! I’m excited to announce that the renowned Active Birth Workshops for couples are taught online by Lola Alcarez Perez this year. This one-day workshop is a unique body-centred preparation for birth that is effective, empowering and transformative. It is taught by a very special, insightful and experienced teacher who is also a doula. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough to help you prepare for your birth.
 
Our Active Birth Professional Training Course is for those who want to teach or practise Active Birth professionally. The course is taught online by Janet Balaskas, Jill Benjoya Miller and Lola Alcaraz Perez. This is a training course for birth professionals and is also open to experienced and knowledgeable mothers who would like to lean how to teach and inspire others to have a wonderful birth.
