Join us for an immersive 2-day workshop for couples facilitated by the founders of the Light Dark Institute, Tani Thole and Leslie Rogers. You’ll experience first hand how the very things that you have been judging and fearing most can become the source of unprecedented fun, connection, power and creativity in your relationship.

Develop more spontaneity, creativity and power in your relationship
WHY DO THIS WORKSHOP?
You can’t reach the highest peaks without a safety harness. The work we do is edgy. That’s why so many are attracted to it. Like you, we are drawn to explore new aspects of ourselves and our partners, and find hot, fun ways to express them that bring us closer together as couples.
But that also means that stuff can come up that can be tricky to navigate. Without expert facilitation and a solid container where everyone feels held and safe, well-intended play can end up having the opposite of the intended effect of freedom and connection. Sometimes the fear of this kind of reaction can stop couples from even trying to express all parts of themselves with each other, leaving vast unexplored territory in the most important relationship.
We created this online course to give you a playground to safely explore that new territory, so you can have the same feeling of curiosity and wonder about your partner that you did when you were first falling in love. We’re here to support you in uncovering exciting new ground without falling into the familiar ruts of old conflicts and outdated fears.
But the gift of the workshop doesn’t end on the last day. Throughout we’ll be practicing the tools that you can use to create that same safe container in your relationship on your own at any time. With practice, you can meet any fear that comes up in your relationship as an opportunity to find the hidden passion, desire, and turn on that we know is lurking below. From experience, we know this can be hard to trust, which is why we’ve packed the workshop with experiential exercises that you and your partner can use to prove to yourselves that even the darkest parts of you can be sexy and lovable when you bring them fully into the light.

I will definitely be back, and I trust them SO much I’ve recommended the LDE to all my friends!”
