A Couples Adventure Retreat
Essentials for a Relationship:
- that your relationship is your priority
- that you Communicate Openly and Honestly
- that you agree to be able to disagree
- that you trust in yourself, your partner and your relationship
- that you respect each others passions and interests
- that you have fun together
Our Goal
Our goal is to provide a fun experience where your relationship
is your main focus. We will take you through outdoor adventure
games and mind/body activities that will enhance your appreciation
of yourself, your partner and your relationship. We provide a
safe and enjoyable environment for you to re-discover yourselves
and your relationship. Maybe even discover new things about yourselves.
This weekend brings you closer to each other, and will strengthen
your capacity to meet challenges in your relationship with creatively,
with passion and with humor.
Our Focus
This will be a moderately physical weekend. Communication and
trust is taken to deeper levels in your relationship by using
our Challenge Ropes Course as the setting of our adventure and
fun. Our focus is on open communication as individuals, as a couple
and as a group. These activities rekindle fun and curiosity in
relationships.
Our Location
We provide our events on St. Simons Island at Epworth By the Sea
Conference and Retreat Center. This beautiful and slow paced environment
gives a motivating backdrop for renewal and committed fun.
About Dean and Lydia
This spring we are celebrating 30 years of change, passion, fun,
turmoil and adventure. We have lived 16 years in Norway and 15
years in Georgia. We have 3 daughters ages 22, 20 and 13. We have
always enjoyed the outdoors together, we love to dance, we love
to sit by the fire and tell stories and we love being together

outdoor challenges, yoga and relationship building retreats to
