What to expect . . .
Come and experience the world-renowned Art and Science of Love weekend couples workshop. We host up to 7 couples in our studio for two exciting days of helpful tools and activities combined with down to earth and realistic relationship wisdom. The process will improve communication, revitalize feelings of love, and build intimacy. Doctors John and Julie Gottman designed the workshop. The content is grounded in John Gottman's 40 years of research on more than 3000 couples. The course is delivered to you with memorable stories, role-play demonstrations, and a good dose of humor.
- Couples of every age, ability, and sexual orientation will benefit
- The workshop has been shown to achieve results similar to those of 6 months of marital therapy
- Positive results have been demonstrated for 94% of those who attend
You will leave the workshop with a box full of tools, cards, and tips to help you carry the lessons learned into your home and daily lives. 
On day one together you will privately practice useful habits for building friendship, intimacy, and romance (a foundation for effective communication and repairs). On the second day of the workshop we will focus on managing conflict like the masters of relationships. Together you will practice a proven process for taking an grid locked issue to shared understanding and then on to a mutually satisfying compromise.
You and your partner will learn how to...
- Foster respect, affection, and closeness
- Build and share a deeper connection with each other’s inner world
- Keep conflict discussions calm
- Break through and manage conflict grid-lock

Frequently Asked Questions
- How effective is the workshop?
- The Art and Science of Love has been shown to achieve results similar to those of 6 months of marital therapy and 94% of previous workshop attendees have reported positive results after attending this groundbreaking weekend workshop.
- Will John Gottman personally be presenting at the workshop?
- No. To see Drs. John and Julie Gottman present in Seattle, WA see their schedule here
- Who attends the workshops?
- Couples of all ages, incomes, races, nationalities, professions, religions, abilities, and orientations attend our workshops. Couples attend who already have a strong, healthy relationship, and couples attend to repair relationship damage and get back on track. Parents sometimes attend who have decided to end their relationship but want to do so in a way that doesn’t negatively impact their children, and receive skills to become healthy co-parents moving forward. We welcome all couples who want to work on making their relationship stronger.
- Can we attend the workshop even if we aren’t married?
- We strongly encourage all couples in committed relationships to attend, whether you are dating, engaged and seeking premarital preparation, not married and living together, or committed to a potentially life-long relationship but don’t plan to get married—this workshop is for you!
- Is this workshop appropriate for premarital couples?
- Yes. We strongly encourage attending our workshop as premarital preparation.
- Is this workshop appropriate for LGBTQ couples?
- Yes. We welcome all couples. While some of the workshop language is heteronormative, our curriculum does include research data on same-sex relationships.
- Is the cost per person or per couple?
- Per couple.
- Can I give the couples workshop as a gift to someone else?
- Yes. Gift certificates are available upon request.
- Can I come to the workshop alone if I can’t convince my partner to attend?
- Sorry, no. Our workshops are specifically designed to be interactive and experiential for couples only.
- How can I convince my partner to attend a workshop or go to counseling?
- We believe that it is important for all individuals to learn the basics of how relationships work based on our scientific research. Many individuals have found that a good place to start is by sharing some of the research on our website with their partners. We have videos of Dr. John Gottman covering our concepts of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (with Anderson Cooper), the A Brief Overview of the Gottman Method, and Making Marriage Work, all of which introduce the most important concepts that Drs. John and Julie Gottman will present at the Art and Science of Love workshop. You can also visit the Gottman Relationship Blog for more information on our methods, and you can look through our Research Overview page. For a preview of the kinds of exercises you’ll do at the workshop, you can download our free Gottman Card Decks app.
- I’d love to come to your workshop, but my partner is a private person and is not comfortable sharing in a group setting.
- No problem. Couples sit as an audience during Mr. Tucker's lectures, but we provide lots of extra square footage for privacy while couples engage in the workshop exercises. Other Certified Gottman Therapists are available to work one-on-one with couples who desire support and assistance during exercises. There is no group work, and no mandatory sharing.
- Is there public disclosure?
- No. Couples sit as an audience during the lectures, but for couples’ individual exercises we provide lots of extra space and seating for you to engage in those exercises with plenty of privacy. Couples will not be asked to publicly participate in any exercises in front of the audience, nor will any of your exercises be publicly disclosed by Inland Southern California Workshops in any form.
- Will we be left on our own or will we receive assistance?
- Highly experienced Certified Gottman Therapists will be on hand at every workshop. These therapists are available to work one-on-one with you during the exercises. Couples are not required to use clinical help, but we strongly encourage using this resource while you have the opportunity.
- Are we appropriate for your workshop if we don’t have any really huge problems?
- Yes. Couples who attend our workshop tend to fall into two categories: enhancement and repair. We applaud couples who are wise enough to attend the workshop for enhancement purposes. Our brains are more open to new learning when we are not stressed out, and our workshop is designed with plenty of humor and romance, so enhancement couples have a terrific time while learning. Feedback from both enhancement and repair couples indicates that the couples workshop is very beneficial.
- Would it make sense for us to attend your workshop if we are already separated or in the process of divorce?
- Sometimes. While each situation is unique, we do have many couples attend the workshop who are separated or have begun divorce proceedings. These couples continue to report that the workshop was very helpful to them. Our staff will discuss the specifics of your situation with you during the registration process to see if it is appropriate for you.
- Should I do anything to prepare?
- There are no prerequisites to attending a couples workshop. The workshop is self-contained and is appropriate even if you’ve never heard of Dr. John Gottman and his work. Some find it helpful to peruse the information and videos on our website, but even this is not required.
- Can I bring my newborn?
- No. We recognize that newborns spend a lot of time sleeping, and it is difficult to be away from them during the first couples months. However, you will not be able to focus entirely on your relationship and it can be a distraction for other couples.
- Do you provide childcare?
- No. While we do not recommend any specific childcare service, some couples have reported positive results with care.com.
- Do we stay in a hotel during the weekend?
- Yes, if you are coming from out of town. Our staff will provide other hotel information to stay near by. If you are local, you can certainly go home. However, we recommend you try to preserve your focus on your relationship throughout the entire weekend, if possible. Try not to go home to kids, jobs, neighbors, pets, all the daily distractions and stressors we face. Try to keep the weekend just for the two of you..
- We do not live in the Inland Southern California area. How can we attend a couples workshop in our area?
- Drs. John and Julie Gottman only present The Art and Science of Love in Seattle. Certified Gottman Couples Workshop Leaders offer workshops for couples around the world. Please be sure to check workshop locations and presenters for workshops in your area..
