Becoming a Mama & Compassion Tree Mama Care header
Dear mamas and friends,
 
The past three weeks, I've been moving my hips more than I used to.  I've been practicing dance moves named "ample hip drop," "birth goddess," and "abundant belly."
 
Three weeks ago, I completed Dancing for BirthTM instructor training, and I'm jazzed about this fun workout for pregnant and postpartum women.  I'm jazzed because these moves feel and look great, even when you're not an experienced dancer, like me.  I'm jazzed because Dancing for BirthTM classes build supportive community and encourage us to be in our bodies and trust intuition - things that I most desire to share with mamas.
 
The dance moves c an be and are used by mamas during their births.  See below for a link to videos, including of a mama serenely dancing through two contractions!   
 
  Dancing for BirthTM  moves are inspired by belly dance, African dance, and Latin dance. Classes incorporate skills to facilitate more comfortable pregnancy and birth, while building community with pregnant and postpartum mamas. Postpartum women can wear their baby in a wrap or sling and use the same dance moves to stretch, strengthen, and tone their bodies.
 
I am offering a free Dancing for BirthTM demo class, followed by a 5-week series for pregnant and postpartum mamas in or near Fremont, CA.  Come join us, and/or pass this on to a mama you know who could benefit!
