Tired of the swiping?

Here’s your chance to connect more authentically, in person, with those both like-minded and different. Come along, grab a wine and have some fun!

You’ll have six encounters throughout the night. Each will be carefully guided, inviting you to be yourself, to communicate openly, and simply relax, allowing you to really kick the nerves out of dating.

Authentic Dating has already been a big hit in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch! Here’s what others have said:

"This has been the most positive experience I've had in meeting genuine souls with the intention of finding love/romance for over 6 years" - Matthew

"Laurie led us through a series of games and exercises that allowed us to open up and create very real bonds with others and with our own selves. Many emotions were felt in the safest, most welcoming environment" - Jason

"Authentic Dating re-opened an old window for me in a new way. Heaps of fun too! And I did meet a very special person. We just got back from a weekend of Easter rock climbing. Highly recommend for anyone curious and keen to connect with depth & joy" - Luca

This event welcomes all men, women and non-binary people aged 21 to 45, both monogamous and non-monogamous.

While we aim to achieve an even balance of genders, this is not always guaranteed. However, what is guaranteed are skills that you can apply to any relationship. Simply come with an open mind and ready to connect :)
