A Gift to Your Relationship
Every stage of a relationship has its own history, desires, struggles, and needs. You build upon both your strengths and your weaknesses.
Being in a relationship is a living, breathing partnership that is as unique as the individuals creating it. Here you are, each with complex lives full of varying interests, loves, histories and longings.
Together you have created a pulsing, ever changing independent and interdependent connection. In this relationship building workshop, people of many variations come together to explore and stir up this soup of connections, desires and bafflements.
Open yourselves to finding a new or restored partnership that is inspiring and intimate.
During this weekend, you and your partner/s will experience:
- Connections in practice. Develop listening habits that validate, reflect, and open you to respond with curiosity
- Vulnerability that builds trust through guided prompts and affirming feedback
- Consent-first framework. Guided conversations to establish boundaries, negotiate pleasures, and honor comfort levels
- Sensual skill-building that connects language with touch, tone, and timing
- Sharing of fantasies, in safe and playful connection
- Real-world takeaways. Return home with actionable skills
