Made with ❤ by Amir
These relationship workshops are designed to give you as a couple, an enjoyable experience of growing closer to each other. Our experience has been that it’s much easier to be disciplined about intentionally working on our relationship, when we have the support of a group of couples who are doing the same thing.
Couples have said that they love these workshops, because it isn’t just listening and watching, but actually doing something right there and then for your own relationship.
The workshops are skill-based; so, they’re open to couples of any faith or no faith.
They are suitable for couples of any age or any stage of relationship. De facto couples, those exploring marriage, engaged couple or married couples
You can choose to join us every month or decide which workshops you will join, month by month.
The workshops will be led by: Cassius & Marian Soares, who are trained ‘Marriage Coaches’.
The rhythm of learning in each workshop will be: Listen, Watch, Do, Discuss.
We will begin with a brief explanation of key concepts /principles, related to the exercise.
This will be followed by us modelling the exercise, before you as a group.
You will then be invited as couples to do the exercise and practice the skill privately. Each session will have 20 mins set aside for couples to privately work on exercises and engage in conversations around the particular topic for that session. If you have a question or need help with part of the exercise, you can always ask us to join you for a few minutes.
Finally, each session will conclude with a group debrief focused on the process of using the skill and any concepts /principles that you found helpful (not the content of your conversation), as a couple.
Topics:
Each month, we’ll have a focus on a different topic, which impacts our relationship as a couple.
You don’t have to commit to come every month. Try one and let us know if you’d like to be put on the mailing list to get informed about future workshops.
Some examples of topics would be:
Details of our next workshops in April:
Topic: Expressing Appreciation – Making Deposits in Your Relationship
In this workshop you’ll be empowered to privately work on expressing appreciation to your partner – perhaps in ways you haven’t done before. This is an important way to keep depositing into our relationship. And a great first step in resolving conflicts, as well.
