Still Wild

A four-day retreat for couples who never want to become roommates

Come and join us for four days of complete relaxation, connection and deepening in love, passion and playfulness.

The Framework:

A diamond is graded on four Cs. So is a marriage.

Everything we teach across these four days lives inside one framework — the four forces that determine whether a marriage compounds or corrodes.

• COMPATIBILITY — the operating system.
  Not "do we like the same things." How you actually run a shared life: what your shared vision is, your relationship virtues, and the principles you want to anchor into your marriage as you build version 2.0. Who leads where, how you handle money, family, faith, ambition and sex. The agreements underneath your marriage that most couples have left to chance, instead of cultivated with intention. 

  CONNECTION — the daily practice.
  The unglamorous mechanics of closeness. Rituals, visibility, touch that isn't a transaction, and the reframe that turns errands and coffees into actual dates. This is the part that keeps working after you get home.

  CHEMISTRY — the fire.
  Charisma first, flirtation second, heat third. You'll relearn how to be interesting to your own spouse; how to flirt with life and then bring that aliveness back to the person across the table. Play, mischief, innuendo, dressing up, being wanted and deeply desired. 

  CONFLICT — the test.
  The fourth C wraps around the other three and constantly pressure-tests them. You don't break up over the fights you had. You break up over the conversations you were unwilling to have and the things constantly swept under the rug that slowly eat away at trust and desire. You'll learn to fight well, and you'll practice repair on something real,  and probably close a loop you've been carrying for years.

Day 02

Chemistry

Fire day.

We start with charisma — not seduction technique, but aliveness. How to be a person who flirts with life, because that's the person your spouse fell for in the first place. Then we bring it home: flirtation, play, mischief, and the specific, unembarrassing skill of being deliberately attractive for each other again.

Lunch and an afternoon on the boat. Back to the house for a James Bond cocktail hour — dress up, play a role, get photographed at sunset.

The evening goes into the physical side of chemistry, and the Five Types of Touch — a practice you'll do with your own partner, fully clothed, that will make you realize how much of your touch vocabulary you've let go dormant.

Module 04

Closing the Portal

On our 4th day together we will close out the experience with a delightful brunch, a few games, and send you off on your adventures with as much love and pleasure as we can muster. You will leave with a completely new understanding of your relationships, a more precise understanding of your own relational blueprint, and a pathway for connection, communication and cultivation of love, passion and pleasure than ever before. 

We invite you to stay with us for the morning until at least noon to enjoy the full experience and give yourself time to transition back to the real world. 

We also highly encourage you all to take a day to rest and rejuvenate at the end of this experience, to laugh and rest before heading home to kids and responsibilities that will always be there.  

What you're actually leaving with:

• A written set of relational agreements the two of you built yourselves, and a way to check them
• A repair process that works, tested on something real, not a hypothetical
• The compatibility conversations you've been circling for years, finally had
• A system for visibility so you stop being surprised by each other's lives
• Your flirtation back. Yours specifically, not a script
• A vocabulary of touch that isn't a request for sex or a pat on the back
• Photographs of the two of you that you'll actually frame
• Proof, in your body, not in theory — that this is still available to you

And yes: the sex. We're not going to be coy about it. When you stop managing each other, stop performing, and stop having the same conversation on a loop, what comes back is want. Not technique. Want.

 EPIC LOVE.

There's something the 4 of us all stand for, and that is EPIC love.

The kind of relationship that has even MORE depth of connection, playfulness and passion 20 years in, than it did at the very beginning.

While Axel and Andrea have spend decades married and have found their own keys to lasting, thriving, deeply romantic love and partnership, JD and Alyeria have traversed decades of relationships, divorce, and the immersive study with masters in the fields of love and relating - from tantra and sacred sexuality to neuroscience and the art of communication. Between us we have gathered the wisdom gleaned from successful relationships, and failed ones, and together we found the threads that tie together everything that truly works, for all couples. 

The four of us hold a unique and sacred prayer for love - for all those who wish to have this kind of love, to be able to have access to the foundational principles and understanding that allows love to flourish through every hard conversation, tragedy of life, and every precious moment of joy and connection. 

We wanted to create this retreat to share with you our decades of learning, our practices that we use every day, and the playful
