Lessons from a Thriving Power Couple, With Stace and Ty of Under the Sheets

Never stop developing sexually. One of the biggest downfalls is people in relationships stop prioritizing intimacy and sex, it’s something that gets attention if there is time and energy left at the end of the day. Nothing builds connection trust, and vulnerability like sex does. We practice what we preach and truly know the power that a fulfilling sexual relationship ripples into all other areas of your life, especially when you work with your partner. We bring sexploration into the bedroom — yes we know what each other enjoys but we are always trying new things together to continue enhancing experiences and pleasure in the bedroom and we believe this should never end in a relationship.

As part of our series about lessons from Thriving Power Couples, I had the pleasure of interviewing Stace Garland and Tyrone Bell — known as Stace and Ty.

Stace and Ty are the founders of Under the Sheets Academy, an online platform dedicated to helping couples unlock their full sexual potential. Their academy offers practical courses on bedroom skills and techniques, but instead of relying on animations or diagrams, Stace and Ty provide full, uncensored demonstration videos. Their belief is that trying to learn bedroom skills by looking at animations or diagrams is about as effective as learning how to swim by reading. By combining their expertise; Stacie’s from her Masters in Psychology and Ty’s in nutrition and men’s health, Stace and Ty approach bedroom enhancement in a holistic way by their three guiding pillars: physical health/nutrition, mindset, and techniques.

They believe that continual growth in a relationship is essential and that sexual exploration — or ‘sexploration’ — is a key element in not only maintaining long-term sexual interest but also long-term relationship success. Through their business, they offer a variety of courses and programs designed to help couples in long-term relationships grow and thrive, both inside and outside the bedroom.

Thank you so much for doing this with us! Can you tell us a story about what brought you two to your respective career paths?

We have both been coaches in different industries for several years. Stace has a Master’s in Psychology and used to coach women with body confidence and healing from disordered eating. Ty specializes in coaching Men’s health and body transformation, specifically for men over 35. Through working with our respective clients, although very different in their problem presentation and demographics, we found an incredible side effect that focusing on confidence and health optimization had on our client’s relationships and sex lives. When we started to really look into relationship and sex improvement resources for couples, there was scarce information. Sex is such a huge part of our lives yet, no one talks about it and it’s such a taboo topic. We would speak with couples who wanted to learn to be better in the bedroom for their partner or learn new skills but all of the resources were either seedy or relied on stick figures or images on a screen so we wanted to change that. We have both seen the incredible impact that a fulfilling and exciting sex life can have on a relationship and every other life aspect and we want every couple to experience that.
