Date Ideas for Couples Who Love to Learn (Volume 2)

That fancy espresso machine your aunt is bound to get you may be beautiful and expensive, but you won’t be sipping perfectly made lattes, macchiatos, and cappuccinos without a lesson or two.  Learn the intricacies of espresso extraction, milk steeping, and the most valuable takeaway of latte art so that your anniversary breakfast in bed surprise offers more than just boring drip coffee.  

What better way to get to know one another than to trust your partner to not drop you on your head or to be comfortable with having sweat dripped on you while you’re trying to time your breathing and holding another person up?  AcroYoga is a fun twist on the fitness trend of vinyasa and Bikram that packs as much calorie burn while creating a unique bond between two partners.  

Have you ever been to a Cirque du Solei show and said “what the hell is the plot?”  Or maybe “man, I wish I could do that weird ribbon flying thing.”  Well we can certainly help you with the ribbon flying thing; good luck on the plot.  Aerial fitness is a combination of strength with elegance.  Learn how to flex those muscles and glide through the air like a French gymnast.

Next time you make lasagna you could have the skills and knowledge to make your own ricotta cheese.  Or, bust out an appetizer of caprese featuring mozzarella you made yourself.  We do, however, recommend that you hold off any bleu cheese dabbling because anytime you want to consume mold it’s best to leave it to the professionals.
