For more than a quarter century,
the mission PAIRS has been to teach those attitudes, emotional
understandings and behaviors that nurture and sustain healthy
relationships and to make this knowledge broadly available on behalf
of a safer, saner, more loving world.
Throughout our history, the
non-profit PAIRS Foundation has been helping men and women of all
ages, background and stages of relationships discover practical
knowledge and usable skills to create stronger marriages and
families. PAIRS classes deliver usable tools that empower
participants to build relationships that are an ongoing source of
love, pleasure, happiness and fulfillment. For our earliest
days, the goal of PAIRS has been to improve the lives of children
by helping their parents create happy, stable, loving relationships.
PAIRS Essentials is
a weekend workshop designed for committed couples and
others seeking marital enrichment. From the heart
of intimacy, constructive conflict and emotional
literacy, PAIRS Essentials delivers practical skills
for confiding and deepening empathy, understanding and
compassion; and usable tools for avoiding power
struggles, resolving conflicts and dealing with
differences on behalf of lasting love and successful
relationships
PAIRS FOR LIFE is a
once-a-month course that includes the contents of PAIRS
Essentials along with additional tools for safely
expressing the range of emotions and expanded exercises
for dealing constructively with conflict and uncovering
the common hidden assumptions and expectations that most
often sabotage love relationships.
Classes will begin and end
on time. Sharing is at the comfort of
participants. PAIRS is not intended as therapy or
treatment. PAIRS is an educational illuminating
and often humorous experience. PAIRS is a private
and personal experience for each participant within
their relationship. All remarks made by all
participants are confidential.
