Class Format: We offer a series of three night classes (6:30pm - 9pm) and a two-day weekend series (9:15am - 1pm). In addition, all classes are limited to a total of five couples at maximum. Check out our class dates below or request dates that work best for you and your partner.
Class Rates: $185 per couple (we highly encourage you to bring a partner!). Save when you use our doula service, as well!
Private Classes: Prefer a private, one-on-one class at your home? Or do you have a group of friends that would all like to take class together? Private classes are available for an additional $75 per couple. This fee may be waived depending on group size.
