Thanks for reaching out. Yes- parents can choose to download the parent class video to help them prepare for birth. A video vs an in person class with hands on support and learning is a very different experience. The video and the class are not the same experience. Relationship and personal connection is so needed for pregnant people. The experience of successful Spinning Babies® Parent Educators is that their classes are in demand. Some even offer the Parent Class Video and Daily Essentials videos as part of their package to their clients (SpBCPE's can buy digital downloads for 40% off). Parents want to learn in person! If you feel that this course is not the right fit for you, we will issue you a refund. Please be aware that Spinning Babies® is registered trademark, only those that take our SpBCPE program can teach Spinning Babies® Parent Classes, and use our name in promotion and advertising.
