Mark and Katie

We had areas of conflict in our marriage…we were a couple of hotheads. The course gave us some really good tools and practical

help mainly in the area of listening. We learnt how to listen to each other and just to reflect. We learnt to respond in a healthy way.' Mark

'I have to say doing the course has given us tools which have made things better, and it does work.' Katie

 

Jim and Lisa

'We were like two people living in the same house leading separate lives.' Lisa

'It really helped us to learn the tools for communicating. You

think you know how to communicate but sometimes you just know how to talk. We were able to break through that surface level of communication and really share our lives together and get back the intimacy and closeness that makes marriage so wonderful.' Jim

'I can’t express the drastic turnaround this course has done for us.' Lisa

'I couldn’t recommend it enough. You arrive and they have dinner by candlelight ready for you. You work through real issues. You make real progress. It’s an important relationship and I think everyone should devote time to it.' Jim

 

Inger and Henrik

'We’d been at crossed purposes with each other and we needed to learn how to express love for the other person in the way that is most meaningful for them. It’s

a process and you have to keep learning. I think we’re getting better at it and it’s made a big difference.' Inger

'It is like a date night. They make you feel very special…you don’t have to share with anyone else. You have a sense of privacy which is important.' Henrik

 

Miles and Deborah
talking about an issue to do with sex

'It would have been a much bigger issue later on in our marriage if we hadn’t dealt with it.' Deborah

'For the first time we had a chance to talk about the issue without it really getting nasty and turning into an argument. Because The Marriage Course provides such a great environment to discuss these things in a civilised way we could actually start to understand each other’s point of view. It was actually fun doing The Marriage Course and working this issue out.' Miles
