What students are saying:
“The course proved to be incredibly well presented, crammed full of information and very valuable learning. Elaine has so much experience in this area and weaves together the different strands of information and ‘case study’ examples seamlessly and in a most accessible manner. She is a very gifted and generous teacher with the capacity to make dense information and large amounts of knowledge understandable and enjoyable to learn.”
“I took the natural family planning class with Elaine many years ago. I have tracked my cycles ever since, and then as a midwife went on to teach many other women about their own cycles & fertility through the years. What a wonderful enlightening experience for me when first attending college. This class was a sweet, important, & feminine touch during such a memorable time of blossoming into a young woman.”
“This great class, taught by an open and knowledgeable teacher such as Elaine, is so empowering! It really is a step in the right direction for women looking to learn more about their bodies and fertility cycles and take their reproductive health into their own hands. Elaine helps women reclaim the wise woman within us all.”
