Put the call out for test drivers! Could this be you?

I've been teaching hypnobirthing classes for several years now, and I know the type of woman I'm most likely to see. They are independent. They are capable. They are forthright. They tend to be successful in their chosen career. And they have busy lives! It might be work. It might be moving house. It may be voluntary work, or sport. Of course, there are social events with friends & family. The what is less relevant than the why - these women are used to being active, in control & on the ball.

All of which means committing to 4x 2.5 hours of classes, every week for four weeks can be something of a challenge. Pregnancy rarely diminishes the diary - even if sometimes, as the bump swells, those diary dates might seem a little more punishing.

In response to a regular call for more accessible classes, I've re-formatted my Calm Birth Method hypnobirthing class into a condensed format. All the same great content. All delivered in the same no-nonsense, rational, practical way. Still with the same great Goody Bag (and, actually, 4 more bonuses that I can't reveal quite yet!).

So! I'm looking for x3 Test Drivers! In exchange for your giving this new format a run for it's money, you'll get a massive price reduction. In fact, you'll only pay 50% of the standard group class price. Which means you'll only pay £175 - instead of the usual price of £350.

It's a pretty good deal, huh?

All you'll need to do is let me know if you think I can improve the admin. Tell me if you wanted more of some content and less of others. Give me a sense of how the pace felt. Easy, innit?

PLEASE let me know ASAP if you'd like to be my Test Driver. One of the four spaces on this course has already been booked - there are only three remaining.

Here are the course details;

Saturday 30th June & Sunday 1st July

9.30am - 2.30pm

Tonbridge
