"I found Julie's book to be a tremendous resource for teaching birth education. She weaves creative and practical teaching ideas with theory on how to most substantially impact adult learners while providing a respectful environment. There are plenty of books available on pregnancy and birth but this stands out as truly a book for those engaged in the "dance of teaching childbirth education". Becca De Souza, Doula and Birth Educator, The Peaceful Birth Partnership "The Dance of Teaching Childbirth Education will hold a special place in the hearts of so many people. This was the last book that Connie Livingston collaborated on before her sudden passing in 2016. Julie Jensen has done an outstanding job of taking the vision they both held and making it happen. This book is an excellent resource for new educators. It really walks the reader through the process of creating a class. The authors were able to incorporate pitfalls of many educators with solutions and ways to keep up with the world as it is today. As a seasoned educator, I found it to be an easy read, and a great reminder of the how’s and why’s of teaching. The book should be an essential for any childbirth educator’s library." -Elizabeth Smith, MPH, ICCE, IBCLC, RLC The Dance of Teaching Childbirth Education is a comprehensive book for childbirth educators and other perinatal practitioners that contains the practical essentials and insights in all areas of this wonderful field.
