Building Connection, Trust & Intimacy | Workshop Series for Couples

Are you longing to take your relationship to new heights of intimacy, understanding, and genuine connection? Do you desire to build a strong foundation of trust, communication, and empathy? Look no further!

In today's fast-paced world, it's easy for couples to get caught up in the daily grind, losing sight of what truly matters: deepening their connection. This workshop series is designed to reignite the spark and help you build a solid emotional foundation.

What sets our workshop series apart is our emphasis on Authentic Relating. It's about creating a safe and supportive space where you and your partner(s) or close friend can be your truest selves, free from judgment or pretense. Through carefully curated exercises and transformative practices, you'll embark on a journey of self-discovery and shared growth.

For optimal result we recommend to book the full series, but you're welcome to book a single evening with your partner(s). If you have more than one partner and you'd like to join our session(s) all together that's of course possible - please reach out to us!

SESSIONS:
Session 1: The Art of the Self-awareness
All relationships have one thing in common; you. In order for your relationship with others to flourish, you need to prioritize the relationship you have with yourself. We’ll focus on self-discovery to explore our needs, desires and triggers. We’ll learn to communicate these clearly with our partners and focus on active listening skills.

Session 2: The Art of Vulnerability
Dive into the depths of emotional intimacy and vulnerability. Uncover the power of authentic sharing and witnessing, as you create a container of trust and love that allows all partners to be seen and heard authentically.

Session 3: The Art of Difficult Conversations
Conflicts are rich opportunities to connect deeper with our partners when held in mutual understanding. This requires self-awareness and asks of us to not take it personally but create a safe environment for ourselves and partners to be heard and seen. We learn how to hold space and use conflict

Session 4: The Art of Play
Focussing on playfulness and creating shared experiences for deeper connection.

In between sessions you will get a guided homeplay exercise for you to plan a ‘date night’ in your own space and time to practice and reflect together.
