Maria about the Baby Massage Course
I attended Shantala Babymassage course. Both I and my son enjoyed it very much. The facilities are very cozy what makes it very relaxing for the mother and child. Moreover, we got a lot of useful, essential information/guidance during the classes and in written. I was attending the Dutch course as an expat and Elke took special effort to make sure that I could understand everything (including translating the course booklet). I recommend the place and the teacher!
Alejandra & Francisco about the Hypnobirthing Course
The English course is very nice. It helped my partner and I to be better prepared. During the course you get information and techniques of how to use hypnobirthing. Then you need to keep practicing at home. During the course you have the opportunity to practice the techniques.
Elke is a very nice instructor, she helps you with all your questions and guide you and your partner through the course.
The place is very nice, relaxing and comfortable.
Audrey & Moussa Hypnobirthing experience
Hello Elke,
I have been to one of your mucha mama hypnobirthing class last July.
First of all I wish you a very happy new year!!
I never took the time to thank you after the birth of my daughter! Liv was born on August 22nd with no medical aid. The relaxing exercices you taught us really helped! The dilatation phase from 0 to 9 was pretty easy to handle, I was very relaxed! Then we went to the hospital (our choice), my midwife broke the water and after that it was quite more difficult to handle everything… I think I have been surprised by the intensity of the waves! But then I managed to concentrate and I focused on the waves and on my baby girl! My partner Moussa has also been of a great help! He has been an amazing coach! The pushing phase lasted 1h15 and with the help of a cut, Liv was born 6 hours after the beginning of the first waves!
What a magical and wonderful moment! I was under a shock of happiness!
So a huge thank you for what you taught us!! I will definitely go with hypnobirthing if we have a second baby!
Kind regards,
Audrey.
Manuela & Neil Hypnobirthing experience
The hypnobirthing workshop with Elke was a great experience and we enjoyed the whole day. The explanations and exercises gave both of us a feeling of empowerment and made us look forward to the day of our son’s arrival. After the course I used the audio sessions regularly. I also got in touch with Elke about a week before the due date to get the labor induction audio session, which felt very helpful at this stage.
Once the waves finally started, they continuously built up and after a while I started to use the visualization we had practiced. At a certain moment, the waves were so intense that I did not manage to use the visualization but just counted out my breathing. Trying the different options for the breathing exercises during the hypnobirthing workshop and practicing them afterwards was a great preparation for birth. It enabled me to easily switch from one option to another without thinking too much. Our midwife was quite impressed how well I managed to breathe and stay relaxed during the waves.
We can really recommend the hypnobirthing workshop as it felt very empowering. It also gave us a very positive attitude towards birth, which helped us also during some other information sessions.
Ewa & Paul about the Hypnobirthing Course
We took a full day Hypnobirthing course with Elke during the 25th week of pregnancy. Elke was very accommodating, enthusiastic and patient with us, especially during the practical part, when we needed to practice various calming techniques. While explaining us different concepts she supported them with a lot of examples to help us understand everything better. The course consisted of both the emotional/mental and theoretical side of giving birth. We learnt how to act and what to do on every stage of the process. We received the exercise book and some extra material to further learn and practice at home. We highly recommend this course to all pregnant couples.
