Dancing to a different beat

For many people, retirement brings worrisome changes in relationships, status, identity, and sense of purpose in life. Couples may face particular stress when one or both are no longer working at a full time career and old patterns, roles, and ways of spending time together change significantly. These personal disruptions can be minimized and the chances for fulfillment significantly increased through preparation that helps manage the needs, fears, and desires associated with your next phase of life.

Next Dance can help you navigate this new phase of life with:

Retirement Exploration Survey – A well researched and highly reliable instrument that charts the gaps between your current and needed states in retirement on 15 key dimensions of satisfaction. We highly recommend that couples take the RES individually and then discuss their results when they receive their individual Your Next Dance Review.

Your Next Dance Review - Within 24 hours of taking the survey online, the Review provides graphic and narrative results, including detailed explanations, thought provoking exercises, and extensive resources

Coaching - You and your Next Dance coach are a team with one goal – to make a fulfilling next phase of life a reality. Using the Retirement Exploration Survey and Your Next Dance Review results as a base, this goal directed, interactive and collaborative process will help you to identify important objectives and establish plans of action to create your desired “next dance.” You and your coach, through conversation and by utilizing relevant workbook exercises, will work together to fashion a retirement plan that uniquely suits you, i.e. your situation, personality, and interests. Sessions, which take place primarily by telephone, help resolve the challenges that both individuals and couples face during this transition. Your coach can also direct you to other needed expert resources to ensure a comprehensive approach to your retirement success, e.g., financial advisor or planner, estate planning attorney, adult/continuing education providers, etc.
