Learning with us. The first part of your learning will start in October with a full 400 hours of class through till June laying the foundations of who you are as a birth keeper, where your passions lie, key subjects covered and community building. Giving you skills to doula, run antenatal classes and advocate for pregnant families in your community. Our second year students will gain more birth experiances with the midwives here and study each module with more depth and self study. If you would like to find out more please contact. vanessadaaluz@yahoo.co.uk We hold interviews during May and and all summer during our tour. If you choose to stay for a third year you will be involved in our group midwifery practice, hold space for students and be involved in the development of the school. On completing all 3 years we will be delighted to welcome you to be part of the Daaluz network of midwives enjoying our support and on going development of the post modern midwife model in Europe. We are working towards a European accreditation.
DA-A-LUZ OASIS INVITES YOU TO JOIN US ON A JOURNEY TO CREATE A NEW KIND OF MIDWIFE = THE POST MODERN MIDWIFE = Our ambition at Daaluz is to create a network of professional post modern midwives that can be accessed by families all over Europe. To achieve this we are in the process of creating a two year study of 20 modules,40 hours and a year, practical experience working along side the DAALUZ midwives. Giving you the tools to accompany families on their birthing journey. We are apprentices of life, learning from the land and the wise and varied women we will live with, this is a chance to get back to our true selves to create ceremony, keep traditional and new skills alive whilst still keeping time to cultivate our instincts. A group sharing a passion to recreate birth for the next generation. On a practical level what will this mean? We welcome 7 families/women to our community for a cycle of 4 seasons from October till mid june. Through the Autumn, we will prepare for Winter, be inspired by Spring and be tropical for Summer sharing the passion to create a new paradigm for birth in Europe. Our area is a diverse mix of many who have decided to live a more simple and green lifestyle. There is a Steiner school and a wonderful free school close by. Orgiva has been dubbed the new age capital of Europe so the range of activities is immense, pottery to tantric dancing, all possible here! Our students can choose to live on a shared piece of land nearby the school or to live in local accomadation, which averages at around 350e month. If you choose to live on the community field life will be close to nature, close to each other in a structure of your own. We have a beautiful 6m geodesic dome with Kitchen burner and sofa! Water from the spring is a 20min walk or close drive. There is no electricity, nor WiFi. Cooking together, gathering & chopping wood, living simply, helping create a community garden, enjoying freezing mornings... not forgetting the challenges of living so close brings! It is a very beautiful place, lots of parties and fair amount of wild things going on lawless some say encouraging the bravery we need to be birth keepers.
