Birth Preparation Workshops in Muswell Hill & North London

A practical, deeply reassuring 3.5-hour workshop for you and your birth partner โ€” blending Active Birth principles with yoga, breath work and hypnobirthing tools. Expect a mix of movement, hands-on practice, relaxation, and simple guidance you can actually use on the day. Perfect for first-time parents and for those wanting a refresher! These group workshops are held at my home studio in Muswell Hill and at Life By Margot in Crouch End .

What the workshop covers

  • How birth works: the stages of labour and the physiological unfolding of birth

  • Active birth positions to support comfort, rhythm and your babyโ€™s descent

  • Biomechanics made simple: how to work with your body if things feel stuck or uncomfortable

  • Breathwork and nervous system tools for calm, focus and confidence

  • Environment + hormones: how to protect the flow of oxytocin (at home or in hospital)

  • The birth partnerโ€™s role: practical ways to support with touch, massage, acupressure and language

  • Relaxation practice you can return to again and again in pregnancy and labour

Youโ€™ll also receive my 5 pre-recorded hypnobirthing tracks plus a comprehensive document!

COST: ยฃ165 per couple

My husband and I attended the Active Birth Preparation Workshop with Hannah and couldnโ€™t recommend it more. The session was informative, practical, and incredibly reassuring. We left feeling informed, confident, and genuinely excited for birth. Such a valuable experience for any expecting couple - would highly recommend!

โ€œWe attended Hannah's active birth workshop this weekend, and I can't recommend it highly enough. I'm a second time mum, and experienced a tricky birth with my son. My partner and I felt a weight lift after attending this class: we're both feeling so much calmer and more confident about labour now. Hannah offers a mixture of pragmatic, practical tips and calm reassuring insight, all delivered with a healthy dose of humour. Thank you, Hannah!
Ps.. updating this to say our baby was safely born at home earlier this week. Something changed for us after Hannahโ€™s workshop, and we opted for a home birth. Rehearsing some of the techniques together in the run up to the event meant that my partner had a range of things to try on the day. Mostly though, it was just the confidence Hannahโ€™s prep had instilled in both of us, that we could intuit and trust our instincts. Thank you, Hannah!.โ€

โ€œHannahโ€™s birth workshop was a game changer for my husband and I! We felt both nervous and curious about physiological birth and started to read about it soon after I found out I was pregnant. While I felt like I was learning lots of information, I didnโ€™t feel like I was really absorbing or connecting to it. This all changed with Hannahโ€™s workshop! In the session we talked through the principles of physiological birth and how a partner can best support throughout labour. After the session, my partner and I left feeling empowered and excited to embrace the challenge of birth. Hannah is so warm, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. (She is also an excellent prenatal yoga instructor!) Couldnโ€™t recommend this workshop highly enough!.โ€

โ€œWe had the most incredible workshop with Hannah, and we canโ€™t recommend her highly enough. Her knowledge, and the way she explains everything with such calmness instantly put my partner at ease. We came away feeling so much more confident and positive about the birth. We had an oxytocin overload !!.โ€
