This Isn’t Just a Retreat—It’s a Turning Point: Why Florida Couples Are Choosing the Art and Science of Love

If you're like most couples, you didn’t plan to drift. You just got busy.

Work expanded. Kids happened. You built a beautiful life together—but somewhere along the way, connection got replaced with logistics, and intimacy may have started to feel more like maintenance.

That’s where a real couples retreat comes in—not the kind with just beach yoga and champagne toasts (though hey, no judgment, the Celeste Hotel offers great pool cabanas and a world-class bar if you want to extend your Orlando stay). I’m talking about a dedicated Florida couples workshop meticulously designed to change how you speak, navigate conflict, reconnect deeply, and build something truly durable.

It’s called The Art and Science of Love, and yes—it’s rooted in the world renowned Gottman Method. But more importantly, it’s rooted in emotional honesty. The kind that helps you stop spinning your wheels in arguments and start actually getting through to each other.

I host this transformative retreat right here in Orlando, Florida, for couples who don’t need fluff—they need traction.

Why This Florida Couples Retreat Is Different

This isn’t a lecture series. It’s not "therapy-lite." And it’s certainly not about endlessly reliving everything that’s gone wrong.

Instead, The Art and Science of Love is a carefully structured, experiential workshop grounded in decades of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. You and your partner will learn:

• How to manage conflict constructively, turning arguments into opportunities for understanding, without leaving lasting emotional scars.

• How to deepen intimacy and affection, reconnecting on a profound level without needing an elaborate getaway to feel close.

• How to communicate effectively, speaking your truth and hearing your partner in a way that strengthens your bond, not frays it.

  
  

And you’ll do it all together. Side by side. Not across from a stranger in a therapy setting, but next to the person you once felt completely safe with—and want to feel that profound sense of safety and connection with again. All exercises are done privately with your partner.

Who Is This For?

This retreat is specifically designed for couples who:

• Feel more like roommates or co-parents than romantic partners.

• Still love each other but find themselves stuck in the same recurring conflicts.

• Are looking for practical, research-based tools to improve their relationship, not just temporary catharsis.

• Want to build a stronger foundation, whether they are in crisis or simply want to deepen their connection.

  
  

Whether you're local to the Orlando area or traveling to Florida for a dedicated relationship-building experience, you’ll leave with something far more valuable than just a weekend away—you’ll leave with a clear roadmap for a stronger, more connected future.

Your learning materials await you in the spacious and comfortable venue.

Space is intentionally limited. This isn’t a marketing tactic—it’s to ensure that every couple gets the focused attention and supportive environment needed for this deep work. Real change needs real presence, and that thrives in smaller, dedicated groups with high intention.

Your Move: Invest in Your Relationship

This might be the first time you’ve seriously considered doing something like this for your relationship. Or perhaps it feels like a last-ditch effort to bridge the growing distance before it turns into an unbreachable silence.

Wherever you are, know this: you’re not doomed. You’re not broken. You might just need a different kind of weekend—one that equips you for a lifetime of deeper connection.
