The Art of Birthkeeping
It is part practical training, part self-development, part ceremony. We’ll work with clay and rebozo, map babies in the womb, make labyrinths, watch a birth film together, and sit in circle at the end of each day to integrate what we’ve learned.
You will leave with real skills and real tools. You will also leave knowing yourself more deeply as a birthkeeper; your edges, your truth and your gifts.
This is part of the full Holistic Doula School training programme. A small number of places may be available for those attending as a standalone experience.
Six places. July 10th to 13th. Penzance, Cornwall.

Plan with Purpose
Every project is different. We stay flexible and responsive to make sure the process fits your flow—not the other way around.
