Is this right for us ?


These events are for couples of any age and stage of relationship
, who want to regain their loving and intimate connection. That’s the key factor here….you both recognise that loving is an area that needs nurturing and you both want to do something about finding that special sparkle of togetherness again. They are also suitable for same gender couples as well as heterosexual couples.

We hope that you both feel an awareness of this need for more intimacy. However, it may be just one of you, the one reading this right now, who is aware of these needs. Your partner doesn't have these thoughts; it’s not something you talk about easily together. What to do ?
We can help with this beginning stage, giving you support to talk to your partner. Click here to talk to us.

How could this help our relationship?


This is a very sensitive, personal area, you may be thinking.
How will we enable you to experience this special loving quality with your partner, with other couples present, and at the same time, make sure you feel absolutely safe and taken care of?

Well, luckily, that’s our speciality……
We create an atmosphere of total safety and respect, enabling you and your partner to feel you are in understanding, caring hands.

The venues we use are private. Each couple will have their own personal space in the room where they can be close together. Your experience with one another will feel private to the two of you. We offer very comfy floor seats with back rests (if you are happy to sit on the floor) or chairs are available also.

We will lead you gently through exercises, enabling you to work together on creatring a more intimate, honest and caring connection, especially when there are habitual ways of communicating that are stuck and frustrating. If one of you wants to follow what we suggest and the other doesn’t, finding compromise is part of the communication skills we offer.

There will be no explicit sexual content - the exercises are about slowing down, connecting, and experiencing touch and closeness with your partner in ways that help you feel alive like never before.
This can be moving for some, possibly challenging at times, and always valuable. This is what you are really looking for and it can be an enormous relief to find it.

There will also be times when we all sit together as a group, talking about our experiences. This is very helpful, since couples don’t often get the opportunity to talk about personal aspects of relationship with other couples. Of course, you will always be at choice as to what you say.

We are supportive and conscious of each couple’s varied needs and can find time, during the event, to give you personal support if needed.

We want you to go home feeling that you have gained some very concrete skills to bring into your lives, as well as feeling more in love and appreciative of one another. 

A Testimonal -
I felt a bit unsure, mainly because I wondered what the other people might be like, as I thought this kind of thing might attract new age oddities (to be politically incorrect).  I was pleased to find everybody rrelatively normal and very warm and easy to relate to on the whole.  Priya and Bob created a very safe environment where our personal boundries are respected.

Do we really need this now?


If creating connected time for yourselves as a couple is difficult
and you are indeed having problems creating the time to do this day or weekend, then you need it to help you break that cycle.

Breaking the stalemate of a lack of close connection is the thing most couples find the hardest. You are so much wanting to be close and you both deserve it.

We know, for sure that The Connected Couple events will enable you to both to feel more loving and more connected. Who wouldn’t want that ?

A Connected Couple Day may be the first step you take towards more loving for you both. You don’t need to have done anything like this before to join us. Just being a couple, wanting to explore this, is enough.
