Founded on over forty years of research into what makes relationships succeed or fail, this course will revolutionise the way you understand, repair and strengthen your relationship.

Teaching takes place in a private setting, the groups are small and run over two Saturdays or eight weekday evenings. There is no personal problem sharing in the class.
