Request Michael for a Couples workshop now!

Reconnect with your partner. Renew your relationship.

Expect this unforgettable Couples Workshop to be the most significant and rewarding 3-day retreat you and your partner will ever experience. Leave daily stresses behind as you rejuvenate yourselves.

Imagine learning easy nonverbal communication skills that help you successfully manage conflict, deepen your friendship, and improve your intimacy.

This unique retreat isn’t “couples counseling.” You won’t be deep-diving into your childhood. Instead, you’ll learn actionable, practical ways to negotiate with your partner, work through long-standing issues, and ask for what you need.

These sessions are fun, insightful, and practical. You’ll laugh while you’ll learn – and return home with a tool chest of new skills you can use everywhere.

All participation is voluntary. You won’t be asked to share with the group or talk about your feelings or relationship.

All couples and orientations are welcome – married or unmarried, straight or gay.
