Childbirth in Japan

Tokyo here we come! We were in Japan in October and amazing does not begin to describe how much we enjoyed the country, people, and the food. We're headed back in April 2011 for a Childbirth Educator training workshop and a Doula Labor Support training workshop.

We will be working with the Japan Association of Doulas and Educators (JADE). Please find workshop information at their website japanbirth.yolasite.com

If you happen to be in Tokyo, please join us. How wonderful that birth has it's own common language that women speak no matter where they are.

Peace!
