It was so good to have this done with a facilitator. It changes the dynamic a lot. Before, we always ended up in the same patterns. This session really helped us to clear this pattern and to do this together as a couple.”
ABOUT US
Solas:Solas was created to give couples a place to pause, reflect, and reconnect — without pressure, performance, or pretense.Curated by Jitesh Patel, a certified Gottman Leader and longtime partner himself, our retreats and sessions are grounded in research-backed practices, especially The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work by Drs. John and Julie Gottman. These principles offer clear, practical ways to strengthen connection, build trust, and navigate the everyday challenges of partnership.But we don’t stop at relationship tools. The learning is complemented by holistic and playful experiences — moments shared in nature, creativity, and movement — designed to bring joy, ease, and a deeper sense of togetherness.
OUR APPROACH
We believe connection is something you return to through presence, curiosity, and simple everyday choices — the way you listen, respond, and make space for each other.Our sessions are shaped by the Gottman Institute's 7 Principles of making marriage work, blended with creative, physical, and sensory experiences that help couples reconnect in a way that feels both natural and lasting.Each escape is guided by the same principles: presence, curiosity, creativity, and care. We blend research-backed relationship tools with holistic practices, movement, stillness, and meaningful conversation. Nothing is one-size-fits-all—everything is shaped around where you are and where you want to go, together.Our spaces are private, personalised, and deeply intentional. From breathwork and couples’ massage to visioning exercises and sound healing, each moment is designed to help you reconnect—not just through words, but through energy, joy, and shared experience. This is relationship work—but it’s also relationship celebration
