Teacher Training

The Teacher Training

BBB is now available as an accredited teacher training programme and is perfect for all antenatal educators, pregnancy yoga and NCT teachers, doulas, midwives, meditation/mindfulness teachers and mums who want to make a difference in the birthing world

BBB is the choice of training for Chelsea and Westminster Midwives who are piloting BBB classes for their birthing mums at hospital

Combining digital home based learning, including an entire film of a BBB class, with face to face classroom study, mentoring and business support, BBB aims to get you teaching quickly, with confidence and authority

The BBB training was developed by Karen to provide a contemporary 2.5 hour, affordable birthing class which fuses the essence of hypnobirthing with powerful but simple meditation and breathing techniques and a positive awareness that giving birth is life affirming not life draining

“As a hypnobirthing teacher of nearly 20 years and an advanced meditation/mindfulness teacher, I wanted to offer a flexible, solutions-focussed, contemporary class to reach a greater number of people with a combination of powerful but easy techniques which make a real difference at birth”

Breathe to a Better birth has been trialled over 7 years and has taken into account the feedback of mums and birthing professionals. The 2.5 hour class fits in with busy and stressful lives and everyone can learn the techniques quickly and effectively, without the need to understand hypnosis protocols or attend several sessions. The class is backed by a comprehensive 45 minutes audio and a concise manual which is delivered digitally from the BBB website. BBB teachers can get on with teaching and rely on the BBB website to support their clients

In addition, you are supported by your own mindfulness meditation audio and fear release audio which will help you to understand your own occupational and workplace stress

For teachers who want to train, BBB offers the training as a part home based and part classroom study, to be completed over a period of 6 months or less. Teachers have the benefit of an entire BBB filmed class split into teaching sections and backed by clear guidance notes, plus background articles exploring some of the most current topics surrounding birth and beyond. The study is pulled together in the face to face classroom which concentrates on experiential teaching practice. In addition we offer you excellent BBB marketing materials and business advice to help you get started right away.

Happy Teacher

“I met Karen Mander a few years ago and was instantly struck by her passion, her enthusiasm, insight and down to earth ways.  Meeting Karen was like a calling for me, to move further on my journey by learning how to teach individuals/couples how to Breath to a Better Birth.  It just seemed like a natural and organic way forward. I feel blessed to have trained with Karen and I believe every woman can have a positive and uplifting birth experience and that by knowing and understanding these methods will leave you feeling empowered, calmer and in control of your birth. I am delighted to be part of the Breath To a Better Birth team.” Pamela Rogers, Doula and Breathe to a Better Birth Teacher
