About this Event
Interwoven: Rock Climbing and Restorative Yoga 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 City Rock Colorado Springs. This physical activity depends upon thoughtful movement, careful planning of the next steps, and trust in your belay partner.

The second part of this event will involve restorative yoga session for couples. Restorative yoga is a restful practice that encourages you to slow down and open your body through passive stretching. Some restorative yoga classes have participants barely moving, holding only a few postures. When your body enters a state of relaxation, your mind can also consciously relax as tension melts. The only work required during a restorative yoga practice is to pay attention to your breath, become aware of any sensations or thoughts that may arise, and then gently release them. This yoga flow will present the opportunity to slow down and take stock physically and emotionally together.

Research suggests that when couples work together, the activity helps build connections. 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. The goal of this event is for you and your partner to experience a closer bond through active and passive activities.
