Events & Workshops

Workshops on Relationships

Alyssa with Christopher & Anne Ellinger facilitate Interactive workshops that draw on practices shared in the book they authored together (The second edition of Getting Along: Skills for life-long love. Together they use their theater, literary, education, and dance backgrounds to support people to engage in fun and meaningful ways with the material and each other.

If you are interested in hosting or attending book celebrations or Interactive workshops contact us at alyssalynescoaching@gmail.com. The book and/or workshop could be a great gift to yourself and your communities whose relationship skills and/or love-life you want to support.
