This outreach experience is open to COUPLES within the Special Operations Forces Community.About this Event
Interwoven: Wilmington Rock Gym for Couples
Special Operations Couples are invited to summon their courage and step out of their comfort zone into an experience that requires patience, trust and positive self talk. Participants are invited to embrace the opportunity to climb to new heights both physically and mentally at Wilmington Rock Gym. This physical activity depends upon thoughtful movement, careful planning of next steps, and trust in your belay partner.
Research suggests that when couples workout together, the activity helps build connection. Research by relationship expert Dr. John Gottman also shows that when you acknowledge and openly discuss positive aspects of your partner and your marriage, your bond is strengthened. We will practice this as the class is taught how to belay and basic climbing movements.
Workshop Prerequisite - Hunting for the Good
In a journal or on a piece of paper, write down at least one positive comment about your spouse from Monday, April 8 - Friday, April 12. Record these positive sentiments and things that you appreciate about their character, things they did around the house or to support you, etc. Do not share your lists with one another. Couples will be given an opportunity to share the lists with each other at the event.
Upon completion of the climbing portion of the event, The Station will provide picnic bags for you to continue your date elsewhere.
