Your Birth Project is a New Zealand based online birthing class that encompasses Hypnobirthing and Calmbirthing practices. The course covers meditation, relaxation techniques such as 2 types of breathing and partner massage as well as a section specifically for birth partners. The course also includes an incredible water birth featuring a Kiwi Mum in her surrogacy birth.

Jordyn is passionate about the accessibility of the course and doesn't believe birth courses need to be hundreds of dollars so at the reasonable price of $89 she hopes many families will be able to reap the rewards through birth empowerment.
