LIFE Marriage Trainings and Retreats — The Seven-Day Cruise Program
"The Retreat was everything we hoped it would be. Not only has it made a powerful difference in our relationship, but the principles and skills we learned are even having a positive effect in my work!"
—Jim, Florida
LIFE Marriage Retreats sets the highest standards in terms of results and value. We consistently help couples create extraordinary lasting change and long-term growth in their relationships, even as we offer them an unmatched level of quality and amenities in their overall experience. Our five day LIFE Elite Training Retreat program and the three-day LIFE Weekend Training Retreat are the programs against which all others are measured.
LIFE and Holland America
It makes perfect sense that LIFE would team up with Holland America Line, perhaps the premier cruise line in the world, to offer its innovative and highly effective Training Retreat program. Holland America's award-winning service, world class dining, and gracious cruising experience help us to create the atmosphere within which relationship trust grows, communication flourishes, and new levels of joy are discovered.
Against the backdrop of a fun and exciting cruise you will learn and experience the principles and skills that define every successful relationship and life of meaning. LIFE is renowned for its pioneering use of Experiential Training techniques in our Training Retreats, and couples find the principles and skills being taught in our stimulating group sessions being put to immediate use through on-board and shore-based activities in ways that create those ground-breaking "Ahh-hahh, we get it now," moments and lead to immediate positive change in the relationship.
LIFE's Personal Touch
Holland America sails with nearly one crew member for every two passengers, leading to that sense of being well served and taken care of. LIFE provides that crucial personal touch as well through holding private sessions with each couple, helping them focus the principles and skills on their specific challenges and opportunities, leading to a customized and highly effective relationship experience. Then, after the Cruise Retreat, we will hold Coaching Calls with each couple to help them stay on track toward their goals.
Results
We can describe the cruise experience, the training, the activities, and personal coaching in the greatest detail, but at the end of the day, what you are looking for are results. How is this Training Retreat Cruise going to make a difference in your life and relationship? Be assured that this is where our focus is as well.
