After 15 months of teaching online, I am thrilled to announce that Empowered Birth, Empowered Birth: Home/Birth Center and Second+ Time Around workshops are meeting in person. Teaching online had its benefits and definitely made me a better teacher, but I am looking forward to seeing faces in person instead of on a screen.

In order to ensure safety for all parties involved, we will be following CDC guidelines in class. Class sizes are limited with spacing for social distancing with opportunities to work outside (weather permitting). Masks are recommended for anyone who is not fully vaccinated. In general, fully vaccinated means two weeks after the second dose of Pfizer or Moderna, and two weeks after the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

As your instructor, please know that I have been fully vaccinated since February 10th and have followed all CDC guidelines personally and professionally. Evidence based research has always guided my teaching as well as decisions regarding my personal health and safety, as well as my family’s. If you’re still a little nervous about venturing out in person (that’s normal!) please know that I am taking all precautions in order to make in person class a safe and rewarding option for everyone. Reach out with any questions or concerns.
