" This was my first event of this kind, and it was life-changing.
Exciting, funny, and a bit uncomfortable in the best way, like daring to shed skin . Thank you for the clear boundaries that gave me the freedom to explore and opened a portal to a world I didn’t know was mine. "

What is a Temple?
A Temple is a shared experience:
A space to embrace the full range of our humanity
in the presence of others.
It is a guided space where we step beyond societal norms,
leave our expectations at home,
and welcome the many inner parts of ourselves that
long to be expressed in the moment.
A temple is not a just place where you get in touch with others,
it is a place where you get in touch with yourself and what is alive in you:
desires, fears, playfulness, tenderness, rawness, or even resistance.
The part of you that longs to surrender.
The part that craves control.
The part that seeks to be seen, or to hide.
Temple of Play invites you
to play with all of those parts,
to let them breathe, move, and interact in new ways.
While sensual and even sexual encounters may unfold,
they are definitely not the goal.
The true essence of Temple of Play is to be in contact:
with yourself, with others, and with the mystery of immediacy, without needing to arrive anywhere.
In just one-day journey,
you will receive many
practical tools and methods
to (re)connect and express your boundaries, needs and desires
" I have to share too...
I came feeling heavy after a tough breakup. So I was scared I wouldn’t find myself, but this space and you two supported me reconnect, let go, and truly enjoy myself. I left feeling lighter, freer, and ready to move forward "
