I just took a birth class at Bloom Yoga, which was worthwhile. But I think the doula (Natalie Evans) who taught the class also teaches at Be By Baby, so their class is probably substantially the same. One session of the 9 total sessions was dedicated to breastfeeding and taught by Malik Turley. She was good - specific and obviously very passionate on the subject. If you are not looking for an entire birth class or are not hoping to have a natural childbirth (so you wouldn't need a very in-depth birth class), I think you can somehow sign up for just the breastfeeding class separately.
I just signed up for the natural birth class in Sept w/Natalie. Realized I was too late to take a Bradley class and this one fit our schedule. I've heard good things... keeping my fingers crossed!

I know you posted this forever ago, but I took the bf'ing class. I have nothing but AMAZING things to say about the class and the teacher.
I learned so much, and it really helped cheer me on in bfing.
