For years, I felt frustrated with the pace of talk therapy. I knew the origins of my wounding and how it was impacting my behavior in negative ways. Processing my experiences with Britt in an embodied way greatly accelerated my healing process. I felt more able to access my emotions and my inner wisdom and better able to put them into practice in my daily life. If you want to live less in your head and more in your body and utilize the wisdom within you, I highly recommend working with Britt! read more

Britt's preparing your vagina for birth was such an important piece of my birth preparation. She is so knowledgeable, warm, playful, and a fierce advocate for birthing people. The practices within class helped me connect to myself and my baby. Many of the embodied practices helped me move through labor with a confidence that I did not know was possible. Some of the practical knowledge also helped my partner and I feel calm and empowered advocating for ourselves during our hospital birth to safely request fewer interventions. I definitely recommend taking her class if you feel curious/called! read more

Britt's coaching as been essential to my healing of birth trauma. I had a really difficult birth with my second child and Britt was able to hold it with the tenderness I truly needed. I felt seen by Britt in really profound ways. I love her emphasis on connecting with the body and aligning with my inner light and values. I would recommend this to any mom who really wants to drop in and heal. Britt has such a breadth of skills and practices, that I think she can really customize the coaching to the needs of the client which is great! As a Clinical Psychologist who specializes in working with pregnant and postpartum moms, I would say that Britt's coaching is a invaluable resource. Highly recommend! read more

The Juicy Ladies Retreat has become a sacred annual experience that I plan my schedule around and look forward to each year! The community of women, depth of connection, practice, integration, authentic sharing, learning, and growth make the retreat a non-negotiable for me. Britt and her incredible crew have created something extraordinary and I feel blessed to be a part of it. read more

I have attended three of Britt's retreats, and every time I get something different and amazing out of it. It has become a homecoming for me now - a place that I can return to for unconditional love and support, release and reflection. It has become a marker, a teacher, for how I feel differently and how my needs have changed from the year before, allowing me to really see my journey. The connection to nature and sisterhood is soul-filling in a way that feels ancient - I can feel a part of me waking up, like I'm remembering something that has been hiding deep in my bones all along. If only every person could have experiences like this, the world would be a different place. Thank you Britt, and all the Juicy Ladies! read more

Britt has been an invaluable coach, guide, and support system for me over the last few years. After starting to work with her, I feel like I am on a completely different path, walking in a new direction that feels right, intentional, joyful. Coaching sessions with her each week have been essential. She brings her deep knowledge and expertise about women, the fertility journey, spirituality, breathwork, and connecting with our bodies to personalize each session to what I need. In each session, she helps me dig to find the root of where my fear/anxiety is coming from, leads me to shift my energy towards feeling empowered, and gives me tools to use outside of our sessions. My energy day to day feels so different and my approaches to work and relationships have been transformed. I have also loved participating in Britt's women's circles and retreats. Connecting to other women in safe and supportive environment has enriched my life in so many ways, and these communities are a testament to Britt's gift of creating and holding space for others. read more

Britt's class series "Preparing your vagina for birth" has been deeply impactful in my pregnancy. She shares so much important information and offers so many extra resources... it feels deeply supportive. In class she also teaches and practices with us the best sequences, positions, stretchs, etc that now make me feel much more prepared for what is to come. Plus, she's got a great view of how our bodies know what to do. Her words are inspiring, encouraging and empowering. I highly recommend her work! read more

First time expecting a baby? Perhaps you had a difficult first birth experience and are looking for a healing experience next time around? There is NO ONE better than Britt to help you prepare your mind, body and spirit for the incredible transition ahead. She lives and breathes women's wellness and empowerment. You won't find anyone who brings with them this much wisdom, serenity and compassion. Yoga instructor, doula, photographer, partner, birth prep advisor (I'm sure I'm missing something). Britt will help you find your strength and your softness. Finding Britt significantly changed our birth plan, our birth experience, and absolutely changed my life for the better. Even if you're not looking for a doula, find a way to attend her yoga classes, workshops or retreats. Your future self WILL thank you for it. read more

I had the lucky fortune of meeting Britt during my pregnancy journey and have joined many of her offerings including Prenatal Yoga classes, Preparing your Vagina for Birth Series, Juicy Mamma Circle, Relaxing your Body for Birth. Her style of teaching, holding space and wealth of knowledge resonated deeply with my pregnant being and I have learned so much from her on how to have a conscious birth experience. When I saw that Britt also hosted Blessingway Ceremonies, I knew I had to find out more. Britt created a beautiful virtual container for 20+ of my soul sisters to join in celebrating and honoring this special time in my life. She led us through various rituals including a guided meditation to open the circle, invited all sisters to share their offerings, mixed in with some fun dance breaks, before closing off with a guided visualization of the birth. I received so many positive messages afterwards - it really felt like it cracked everyone's hearts open and allowed the love to flow. I was in awe of how special the experience was (not just for me, but for everyone else), even though it was virtual. If this sounds like something you're interested in exploring, I highly recommend working with Britt who will lead you through the process from start to finish with flawless execution. read more

Britt has a huge heart and vast wisdom. I felt honored, held and seen by her in each session. She moved at a pace that worked for me every time and with clean boundaries so I always felt more like myself afterwards. I came away from each session feeling transformed and healed. Britt is a gem. read more

In the first session of Britt's Preparing Your Vagina for Birth class through Natural Resources, she said something along the lines of "how can you advocate for your vagina if you can't talk about it?" In that moment I knew I had made the right decision to join her course even if it was via Zoom. I'm pretty sure Zoom fatigue is real and I have had it on many occasions in the past few months during the pandemic, but I actually found myself looking forward to this class even after spending 7 hours on Zoom during the day. This course was a refreshing combination of movement, lecture, discussion, and yoga practice. We laughed, we danced, we listened to chimes, we screamed into a towel, and so much more. On a practical level, this course helped amplify and expand upon what I had covered in other prenatal courses. For example, I had heard about perineal massage in passing quite a few times, but Britt was the first teacher to actually spend time demystifying it. Beyond that, the coursework Britt offered inspired me to expand my view of what pregnancy and birth looks like and helped me voice my own expectations and acknowledge my fears as I prepare to become a mother. I'm grateful that Britt has taken the time to transform her course to this online setting and that I was able to join a session. Particularly given the environment we're in today, it offered a space for me to reflect on what I need in place to feel supported through the birthing experience, at least what I can control that is. Thank you, Britt! read more

The PAMI circle is such a unique, nourishing experience, I loved having a weekly container in which to activate and cultivate pleasure as an inner resource. Britt is so gifted in holding space, she fosters an open and safe community with her immense warmth. read more

My wife and I were expecting our first child and felt a bit overwhelmed by what might occur during the delivery process. We heard a lot of recommendations for Britt and decided to add her to our birthing team due to her vast experience with attending so many births and ability to help with the pelvic floor through prenatal and conscious birth workshops. Each session with Britt gave my wife and I confidence in being able to handle a natural birth and a mindset that we could do it. Her yoga sessions were incredibly relaxing and my wife wished the 3 hour sessions would go on even longer. When my wife's bag of water opened at 1 am, we used the mantras and techniques that Britt provided and we reached full dilation by the time we reached the hospital at 7:30 am. Our boy was delivered less than two hours later. The speed and efficiency of the entire process was so much more smooth and wonderful than we could have imagined. Britt provided a calm and reassuring presence throughout the process and we're extremely glad that she was a part of our team. read more

Britt has changed my life deeply, twice. One was when I was pregnant with my youngest - her restorative yoga practices and birth preparation made a huge difference. Now she is changing my life again. I am separated and detaching from my "first marriage." I am hurting in many ways from how I was treated there. And Britt's pleasure practices are completely shifting what I even think I am capable of. The world is opening up for me, through learning to use my pleasure to heal. read more

I was fortunate to find Britt and her offerings early in my pregnancy. Her prenatal yoga classes at Yoga Tree were absolutely unique in that I connected to my emotional, spiritual and physical bodies in each class. Many of the mantras she offers during class are written on my wall at home for reminders, insight, and inspiration. Britt's Preparing Your Vagina for Birth series and Mammas' Circles were some of the best experiences of my life and the most connected I've felt in my womanhood. Sharing with other women in such a vulnerable and monumental part of my life was life changing and so very supportive. I was able to be in a room with 20+ pregnant women who had fears, challenges, excitement, love and desires that mirrored back to my own. Britt has a talent for bringing women together, through song, intentions, sharing and hugs, Britt creates a very safe space and vessel to connect. She is a conduit of love that seems to be working with divine intervention. The space she holds invited me and other mamas to really dive into our humanity and femininity to support each other and our life changing journey. The best gift I ever got from Britt's circles is a community of women. And in that community, I found a best friend whose baby was born just 1 month before mine. I have text with my mama friend every single day since we exchanged phone numbers; what a gift to find a mama on the same course, with the same values at this very vulnerable time. Britt helped us to connect because she saw something before we did. I'd love for every mama to work with Britt during their pregnancy to find what I found: a connection to my body, my spirit, my baby and my yoni. I don't know what else to say except I want Britt to be in my life... for the rest of my life. read more

The universe called Britt into my life in August 2023 when she posted in a WhatsApp group we are a part about her Juicy Ladies Retreat. After the retreat I continued with Britt by participating in the 11 week Pleasure Immersion. I met Britt at a moment in my life when I was feeling very small, defeated, broken, and starting to transition out of a long period of being in survival mode. My nervous system was shot and my body was speaking to me. It felt like there was something inside of me that needed to be released but I couldn't figure out how or why. I was just realizing how much shame and restriction I hold around my sexuality but did not know how to work through it. Working with Britt has 100% directly changed my life for the better. Britt weaves together sexual re-education, group practice, meditation, yoga, community building, grief, fun, and liberation of self and liberation of all beings and structures. Working with Britt has allowed me permission and access to healing and holding my own body and how radical and important pleasure is in our world. It is our human right. I have been able to release the shame restricting my sexual self which has allowed me to show up in the world as my fully realized authentic self. I feel much more clear, empowered, and on track. Britt holds containers that are truley spaces to be and express in ANY way you can possibly think without judgement. Because of that I have learned that my intensity and primal and loud and ugly parts and expressions are acceptable and I am still liked and even loved. It has allowed me to expand my own limitations on how far I can go and how wild I can be. I am eternally grateful for Britt and the struggles and journey she has gone on to show up and help heal others. I would not be healing like this without Britt. read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about Britt and her team. I took several of her classes in preparation for having a connected and empowered second birth experience. I attended her women's circles, Preparing your Vagina for Birth class and yoga classes. Through taking these classes and experiences, I was able to voice what type of birth I wanted to have and also address underlying fears I had. By doing these things, instead of feeling scared or worried, I felt excited and in tune with myself and my needs. I had an amazing birth experience and now six months later, I'm still proud of all of the things I learned along the way and will cherish my birth story. Thank you Britt! And thank you Lauren and Vanessa. XOX read more

As a first time mama, I knew that I wanted an empowering birth and to do it naturally. There aren't really words to describe how deeply supported I felt by Britt. I was laboring at home and Britt came in and seamlessly helped me feel so understood, encouraged and more than anything was able to meet me exactly where I was. And that place was totally new to me-- wordless, managing intense physical sensation, and doing the most important thing I'd ever done-- give birth to my daughter. I gave birth after 12 hours of labor and one solid hour of pushing at the SF Birth Center. I felt completely strong, in the center of my power and totally in love with our little one. As an aside, Lauren is also an absolute love. I would have been happy to have either one of them at our birth. Go to the Mamas circles that they offer! This was one of my favorite experiences being pregnant. I'm still friends with the other mamas. read more

Britt, Lauren and Vanessa provided even more support during and after our pregnancy than we could have imagined. Thanks to their Mamas' circles, Britt's yoga and vagina preparation classes, prenatal sessions with each doula, and unwavering support during labor and in the days after, we approached labor and postpartum life feeling so empowered and safe. We couldn't recommend them higher! read more

I took Preparing Your Vagina for Birth at Natural Resources, and this class was everything and more I hoped for! Britt shares a wide range of techniques to help you labor with confidence. I wasn't sure which would stick for me, but it certainly came clear when I went into labor. There were vivid moments of when I felt I had enough, but I leveraged what Britt taught us and I was able to get through my delivery without medication and no tearing! Thanks for your support, Britt! My family and Yoni will be forever grateful. read more

I worked extensively with Britt prior to the birth of my firstborn son. Having a medical background, I was searching for an alternative perspective on birth and strategies to manage my anxieties surrounding birth. My partner and I had two private birth coaching sessions with Britt and also attending her massage and yoga workshop. I additionally attended her 'preparing your vagina for birth' workshop and her prenatal yoga classes twice a week. I should add that ALL of this was virtual given the COVID-19 pandemic. Britt is incredibly skilled at what she does--I was able to gain confidence in my strength and abilities to give birth and look forward to my birth experience. She taught my partner and me tools to manage fear and the various sensations of birth. I also found her to be a huge support when I had pelvic joint pain that kept me from doing my usual activities for the last two months of my pregnancy and when I found out my baby was breech. She always knows the right thing to say to help you get out of your head. Her prenatal yoga classes were exactly what I needed to make it through the final months of my pregnancy. She tailors the classes to the unique needs of the women attending, and there is a nice opportunity for an introduction and reflection at the beginning of each class that gives you a sense of release and community during shelter in place. I tried other prenatal yoga classes, but Britt's was the only one where I felt better rather than worse at the end! She really knows the pregnant body and the sequences that can help with the aches and pains of pregnancy. Though my birth required significant medical interventions, my partner and I were still able to draw upon the tools and strategies we learned from Britt throughout the process. I feel eternally grateful to her for her guidance and support and truly recommend working with her! read more

I highly recommend Britt and Lauren to anyone seeking a positive and empowering birth experience. They work as a doula partnership, and my husband, myself, and my baby went into our birth very prepared. Lauren and Britt host monthly mama circles as part of their service, which I found extremely supportive. Britt also teaches prenatal yoga, and Lauren does massage. They also can include birth photography as part of your package. I had a wonderful birthing experience thanks to Lauren and Britt! read more

If you are seeking a positive and empowering birth experience, congratulations, your doula search has come to an end! I sincerely cannot recommend Britt enough. She is the embodiment of someone who loves the work that she does, who is driven by her heart and her passion for helping women, and who taps into her deep well of knowledge on all aspects of birth, mindfulness, yoga and the female body to bring her clients the birth experience they desire. She is everything we could have asked for in a doula, and more than we knew we needed! My husband and I felt completely supported throughout my pregnancy as we prepared for the birth of our daughter. The mamas groups she held at her house are a wonderful way to meet other pregnant mamas and build lasting friendships. I cherished Britt's prenatal yoga classes (I'm only sorry that I am no longer pregnant because I miss these classes!). I looked forward to that class as a sanctuary, a sacred place where I could tune into my body and my baby. She has a unique insight into the mind-body connection and how we as women can tap into our inner source of strength and grace during our pregnancy, birth and beyond. And, she knows how to have fun and laugh! So important! They always say that you cannot predict how your birth process will unfold, and that was definitely the case for us. We had a fast and intense labor, and Britt was the calming and grounding presence that we needed to navigate the process while preserving our ownership of the experience. We are so thankful that she was part of our team. We don't know how we would have done it without her. Together, Britt and Lauren are a strong, compassionate, and informed team. They listened to our preferences and concerns, answered our questions, and guided us when we needed feedback. We always felt heard and seen. I recommend Britt and Lauren to all pregnant women that I meet! read more

Britt is a true master of her art. I've seen her shine in two aspects. Yoga: I took her prenatal yoga classes at Yoga Tree right up until the day I gave birth. She has a deep foundation in alleviating ails of the mind, body, and spirit of a pregnant lady. Doula: Knowing that she's attended hundreds of births, I knew that she was the right person to guide my partner and I through the birth of our first baby. Britt was incredibly helpful in pointing us to the right resources in San Francisco, giving informed perspectives on childbirth, helped us feel prepared. She was overall very positive. We felt safe and educated with her guidance -- and her expertise ultimately helped us have a great, speedy labor and delivery process. I couldn't have imagined our birth without her. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a positive birth experience! read more

Britt was our doula for the birth of our first child and we couldn't have been happier to have her supporting us through this amazing experience!! Our goal was a natural hospital birth and we were a bit worried about achieving this in a hospital environment, which is why we decided to look for a doula. Britt was HIGHLY recommended from someone in the birthing community and supported us in a wonderful natural birthing experience at UCSF. Britt is extremely knowledgeable on birthing in general, whether it be home birth, hospital, natural, medicated, vaginal, c-section, but also navigating the San Francisco hospital environment which was really important to us. Most importantly, she is great at helping you hone in on what you want for your birth, and developing a birth plan / prenatal prep that supports you in your birthing goals. During the birth Britt was extremely helpful in helping me stay focused and cope through the most intense stages of labor. She highly values the active participation of your partner (if that is what you want) and I felt really helped ensure my husband had the tools to support me as well. Her positive, calm energy and constant reassurance throughout labor was invaluable. From a personal standpoint, Britt has a wonderful positive, welcoming energy and we instantly felt comfortable discussing our excitement, questions and fears about the birthing process with her. Throughout my pregnancy I also attended Britt's prenatal classes at Mindful Body and they were great..They are a part of pregnancy I will miss so much!! I loved that Britt incorporates lessons from her birth experiences into every class and exercises that help you prepare both physically AND mentally for labor. After attending her class, you will no doubt walk away with new tools for your birth and an increased sense of confidence as you approach your birth! If you are a mama to be I would HIGHLY recommend Britt as a doula and attending her prenatal classes and workshops!! read more

Britt was our doula for the birth of our first child. We knew the baby would be born at Kaiser but it was important to us to labor at home as long as made sense and to bring a sense of calm and focus to the experience. Britt helped us so much in preparing for what we hoped would an uncomplicated, natural childbirth. In our prep sessions with her, we touched on everything from the emotional to the practical. We attended her partner prenatal yoga workshop, and I attended a number of her prenatal yoga classes as well. It was great to have the opportunity to build a rapport with her over the course of our private meetings and in the yoga studio. When labor started, Britt was on hand by phone and by our side the minute we felt we needed her. My labor was long, spanning days, and Britt brought patience, knowledge, calm, and energy to the experience, ensuring that we had all the support we needed not only to get through the physical experience but also to make decisions along the way. While she supported our hope for a natural birth, she was understanding and nonjudgmental when circumstances moved us towards medical intervention. Her support definitely helped us to have a empowering birth experience as we welcomed our beautiful daughter into the world. My husband and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to our closest friends. read more

I'd give Britt 10 stars if I could. Britt has been the doula for over 50 of the couples who have taken my HypnoBirthing Based Childbirth Education classes in the last 5 years. I consistently get the feedback that women and their partners experience the highest level of professionalism from Britt. They feel she is loving, present, highly skilled, and deeply tuned into what the mom is needing basing on the circumstances of the moment. Britt holds space for women to go into the deepest parts of themselves so they can birth with greater confidence, trust, and connection with their baby. I have had several students remark that there is no way that they would have been able to have the kind of empowering experience if it hadn't been for Britt. Britt gets my highest recommendation. I would choose her to be my doula. read more

Britt played an essential role in my positive birth experience, starting years before I was even pregnant. I first met her as a student in her Teaching Yoga for Pregnancy, Birth and Beyond training in 2011. In addition to strengthening my personal yoga practice, that training opened my eyes to a whole new way of thinking about birth -- one that was grounded in a deep trust and appreciation of women's bodies and the conditions that support the natural, physiological process of childbirth. Fast forward to 2014 when I finally found myself pregnant after many many months of trying and several early pregnancy losses. I knew without hesitation that I wanted to hire Britt as my doula. Her breadth and depth of experience is unmatched. She embraces the emotional and physical messiness of birth and doesn't shy away from intensity. At the same time, she has this wonderful playful spirit and loving mama bear fierceness. I knew that no matter how my birth unfolded, I could rely on Britt to support me in staying calm, present and connected to my baby. I attended her prenatal yoga classes at Yoga Tree Valencia throughout my pregnancy and they were essential for maintaining ease in my body in the midst of all the changes it was going through. She also hosted sweet monthly gatherings for all the pregnant mamas who were her doula clients. It felt so good to have these regular opportunities to consciously step away from the busyness of daily life and be in the company of other pregnant women. Three days after my due date, baby girl appeared to be getting ready to make her entrance and I thought, "Alright, let's do this!" As early labor stretched on for multiple days Britt was right there to offer support, reassurance and great suggestions for helping baby move into position. Everything that we had discussed and practiced in the teacher training and prenatal yoga classes helped me keep my mind from spinning out when things weren't going according to "the plan." :) I completely trusted Britt and the rest of my birth team to have my back, which allowed me to surrender to the process and let the outside world fall away. When I eventually moved into active labor, I felt at ease being so raw and vulnerable because I knew Britt could meet me right where I was. She anticipated my needs before I even knew what to ask for -- providing counter pressure, helping me focus on my breathing and offering sips of coconut water or little bites of blueberries and cottage cheese between surges to keep my energy up. Though it was a long and difficult birth, I look back on it with such good feelings because I felt safe, supported and empowered during the whole process. Thank you, Britt! You're the best! read more

I recently attended Britt's signature class, "Preparing Your Vagina For Birth." What a juicy name, and what a juicy class! PYVFB was a fantastic combination of SO many elements (all of which could also be used to describe who Britt is)---fun, deep (we did some level 10 sharing), practical (loads of excellent tips and assignments for trying out at home), lively, moving, peaceful, empowering. Britt alternates between making us think, to making us laugh--and does it seamlessly. Even though I've been involved in the birth world for many years and know a thing or two about the body, I found myself furiously scribbling notes and having many "ah-ha" moments. I went home and immediately began integrating her suggestions into my work with clients. I recommend this class to every expectant mom who has a deep desire to understand the BEST ways to prepare for birth. Britt will guide you through the preparation process and make it feel easy AND enjoyable. read more

Hiring our doulas (Britt, Vanessa and Lauren) was a perfect decision. Working with them helped me prepare for and actually look forward with excitement to the birth, without fear or worries. It also helped me discover what kind of birth I actually dream about and work towards it. I kept telling my husband that all the knowledge and preparation Britt and the team provided to us prior to the birth alone was worth the money we spent! He fully agreed as it gave him the information and preparedness he was seeking. We ended up having Lauren at our birth who was absolutely terrific - see a separate review :) We got the IN-DEPTH POSTPARTUM package that included an individual yoga session with Britt and a massage with Lauren before as well as after birth. Both fantastic! A big surprise for me turned out to be the monthly mamas' circles at Britt's house. They were absolutely magical and gave me a wonderful sense of community with other women. Meditations led by Britt (I always melt into a peaceful relaxed state when I hear her voice), sharing, listening, and even singing together... I found the mamas' circles to be so beautiful, often with tears in my eyes... Thank you, Britt, for the amazing work you do! read more

Britt us absolutely amazing. She waa our doula for our daughter's birth in 2016 and I can't say enough good things about Britt. From her calm demeanor to her taking charge when we needed her to , she was excellent. Needless to say I accomplished a completely natural birth in a hospital because of Britt. I will forever be grateful to Britt. read more

My husband and I are first time parents. When we were planning our birth, we were so lost! We wanted to make sure we had the best experience possible. We wanted people who could guide us, but allowed us to make the decisions that were right for us. From our first meeting with Britt and Lauren, I knew they were the right ones for us. There was a calming assurance in the information they gave us that was exactly what we needed to navigate the uncharted waters of first time pregnancy and birth. Britt and Lauren know how to arm parents with the information they need while also sharing their wealth of experience and expertise. They've also built an amazing community with their prenatal mamas groups. The group helped me to know I wasn't alone in the process and that what I was experiencing was all completely normal (from pregnancy symptoms to nerves around the birth itself). And little did I know that the exercises we did in both the mamas group and Britt's prenatal yoga class were exactly the positions I would need when I went into labor. It was incredible to have the muscle memory of going into certain positions and breathing exercises. And then to top it all off, the comfort of having Britt at my birth and hearing her voice guiding me through those same exercises was so reassuring. It helped me get into the space I needed to be in for the delivery. When I went into labor, my husband was doing his best to apply everything we learned in our birth prep, but I know he was so grateful when Britt arrived. She new exactly what to do. She was able to assess where I was and where he was and provide what each of us needed. We couldn't have had such a smooth and amazing birth without Britt's help! I highly recommend her if you're looking for a doula. And if you've got a doula already, Britt's prenatal yoga classes are also amazing. read more

Britt's RESTORATIVE YOGA CLASSES I am a former yoga teacher and dancer, have taken many yoga and movement classes. If you are looking for someone who can teach yoga from the inside out, help you understand how to release on a deeper level--and actually change your body--Britt is your teacher. Many yoga teachers, as great as they are, do not understand the spiritual/restorative/peaceful/transformative nature of yoga. It is not exercise, or at least its roots are not. It is being used that way in America now, but it actually has the potential to give much more than that. When you hear a teacher's voice and see how they walk into a studio, right from the get go, you can tell if they are working from their center, i.e. have they have found their own yoga? Britt has it, embodies that harmony, and teaches it. She gives individual attention, and listens. Great for someone with injuries, someone who wants more pleasure and fun in their body, or someone willing to understand that less is more. I feel very lucky to have found Britt, she is a rare and beautiful gem! read more

I took Britt's prenatal yoga classes for a bout 6 weeks before my boy was born, as suggested by my doula Sandra. I whole-heartedly believe her guiding breathwork and opening postures allowed me to relax into a seamless quick childbirth experiece I will never forget! She is so good at what she does, I highly recommend to any expectant mother! read more

Early in my pregnancy, I wanted to be intentional about my preparation for birth, and I am so glad I found Britt along the way. Once I met her, I signed up for everything--yoga classes, a Prepare Your Vagina for Birth class, and Mammas Circle meet-ups. The work I did made the experience of birth a transformative experience. Don't get me wrong, it was a lot of work, but it was so very worth it. And, I can't think of a better guide to have helped me through. Britt is no-nonsense, but compassionate. She is deeply knowledgeable about female reproductive health, the mind-body connection, and the reproductive healthcare system. The stories she shares, images she paints, and mantras she chants were especially formative for me when labor began. Once labor started, I entered a sacred space, practicing the breathing techniques and visualizations she offered in her classes. Labor lasted 40+ hours, but I remember it as such a beautiful time of deep connection with my body, my baby, and my partner. One of the best parts of the pregnancy-birth journey was meeting other mammas who were in similar places in life. On this side of the labor, I'm surrounded by a community of mammas who have babies about as old as mine. And, I have one friend in particular with whom it feels like we've lived a lifetime together--but we've been friends for less than a year. We literally text every day. I almost forgot--one of my favorite Britt classes was the Prenatal Partner Yoga + Massage class. During the class, in spite of being with several other couples, my partner and I connected on a deep deep level. Love, tears, and appreciation were flowing both directions, and while I learned to relax, my partner learned practical ways he could support me when labor began. Also, it was basically like goddess worship, and I was totally there for it! Ladies/birthing parents, sign up now! If you live in SF, and have an inkling that birth holds something more for you than pain and pushing, do yourself a favor and find Britt. You wont regret any moment you spend in preparation with her. read more

My husband and I attended Britt's couples' prenatal yoga workshop at Yoga Tree Valencia yesterday, and we are both still blown away by our experience. When thinking of being in one place for 3+ hours, my husband gets quite anxious. However, we were engaged the entire time that the time flew by! Wanting a natural birthing experience, I loved Britt's take on labor positions, breathing techniques, massage, and other coping mechanisms to use during the labor and delivery. Her knowledge from being a yoga instructor and a doula (for 15+ years) is evident as soon as she opens her mouth for an introduction. If you are looking for a great prenatal class/workshop to do with your partner, you HAVE to attend Britt's workshop. read more

Britt is an amazing teacher! I met Britt in the prenatal yoga class. The class was in the middle of the day, so I had to make a special work arrangement to be able to go. The days that I went were always my good days. I was grounded, focused and cheerful. It was such a treat! I wish I could do it all the time! But schedules get busy and other things take over. Fortunately, there're workshops, and I do try to make it to those every so often. read more

Britt was recently our doula for the birth of our third baby and was an essential part of our highly positive and special birth. She is such an experienced doula and well-known at St. Luke's where we delivered-it was great to have our midwife and nurse collaborate with Britt and I believe that we had such a fantastic birth due to this collaboration. Britt is so calm and warm-she set the tone for both my husband and I-I highly recommend her doula services! read more

Conscious Birth: Breathe, Soften, and Go Inward Toward the Power of Birth is one of Britt's many offerings that could not be more perfectly titled. My partner and I went to this class in my 36th week of pregnancy to begin our slowing down process as we prepared to "make room" for birth and baby. After a few hours with Britt's guidance, wise words gained from years of supporting birthing families, and the intelligence of restorative yoga postures, we both felt a huge shift in our ability to slow down and focus on our upcoming right of passage. As a homebith midwife having my second baby, I was not looking for a class that focused on the intellect and choices around interventions, stages of labor, etc that is common material in many birth preparation classes. Yet Britt's class was packed with useful information and tools expertly delivered in a way that did not compromise the mind- body-spirit connection, but rather strengthen it. Her helpful tips, reminders, and insight on how to meet the power and beauty of birth movement combined with meditation, and deep relaxation provided a whole body experience that is sorely missing in the world of childbirth education and preparation. Britt's language around birth is inclusive to various types of birthing plans, settings, and situations. She offers tools for staying connected to oneself not only during birth, but throughout parenting. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking for ways to meet birth and parenting with calm and confidence. read more

I recently had the opportunity to join Britt's Yoga for Your Yoni online 6-week workshop series. When I saw this offering, it was an immediate yes for me. Bringing her decades of expertise in all things Yoni, Britt created a wonderful safe space for connection (with myself and the other participants), intimacy, self-love and laughter. So much so that I almost forgot I was learning too :) Is it embarrassing to say that I listen to the recordings when out and about - even when I don't have the space to just 'sit and be' - and through osmosis, the magic continues to come through! Britt was also my birth doula back in 2017 and her empowering approach made for a life-changing natural birth experience. Her in person pregnant mama circles were divine, building my confidence ahead of birth, feeling ready to advocate for myself in a hospital environment. Five years later, I can't think of my first day with my daughter without thinking of Britt - I (and my yoni!) feel eternally grateful! read more
