Some have, but I can't think of any who are around right now.

The sessions basically is a review of basic concepts. If you know MB concepts and could communicate with your SO w/o problem ... you go only if you have extra $ or have curious George's heart.
The most valuable to me is the follow up/homework after the weekend. You will get coach & get access to Harley himself.
Basically it is design for non DoItYourSelfMBer.

did you go to the weekend. It did sounded like a recap, but i thought that the follow up would maybe help. We are communicating so maybe this isnt for us.

I went w/ Lady Elina, my GF. I presented MB Basic Concepts in my Chruch many times, I know inside out this stuff. I went to the Weekend out of curiosity and wanting to meet the Harley's. Yes, it is a recap. Yes, the follow up is good for couples who are not disipline enough to go through the Questionairs and able to sit and POJA. What I meant w/ communicating is open/honest heart to heart communication.

If you have no problem to learn fillin each other ENs, to avoid each other LB, radicaly honest to each other, and to spend min. 15 hours/week for each other ... and resolve conflicts/issues via POJA. IMVHO, you don't need to go, you could achieve "Fallin in Love and staying in Love" on your own.

ohhh i knew that. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> Sometimes i get them confused. I would say that we are mostly doing all that. No filling out forms per say but we are communicating alot about it. Really just wanted to see others opinion about it and if there is anyone going to the new one.thanks so much.

My FWH and I enjoyed the weekend, and as Redhat stated the follow up is the most helpful. If your H hasn't been exposed to MB it may be a good place to get the basics instead of from you alone.
You could buy the homestudy course and work through that together yourselves, if you prefer.
