More than Prenatal Fitness - Birth Readiness™, it’s the “trifecta” of birth preparation: feel-good dance fitness, essential childbirth education, and celebration of pregnancy, birth and motherhood, all rolled into one profound & powerful class that supports you at every stage, from pre-conception through postpartum. After you give birth, come full circle and wear your baby to class as you return to the sisterhood for postpartum fitness, motherhood wisdom/celebration and bonding with your baby.

Each signature move and technique is designed to:

Guide your baby into the optimal fetal position/soothe your baby in the baby carrier,
and enable you to effectively work with your baby and your body for a birth/motherhood experience you’ll love.

This fun and effective fusion classes are currently offered on four continents. Birth professionals and moms alike use the specially modified dance moves during labor to make birth shorter, easier and safer and motherhood more fun.

DFB participants report experiencing low levels of discomfort, few or no interventions, brief labors and high levels of satisfaction during their births. Studies confirm that these movements shorten labour and reduce epidural requests. Babies whose mothers take DFB classes love the motion of dancing and are easily soothed after birth by being held while their mothers dance. Postpartum women regain their pre-pregnancy shape and tone more quickly when they continue DFB classes with their babies.
