IN TEMPLE WE COME TOGETHER TO 

PRACTICE PRESENCE AND MEET IN ESSENCE. 

Now gathering for more than seven years, the practices initiate us into a journey of  relearning sensation as our primary language, becoming the language we speak to the world. We begin to develop a sensational relationship to nature and feel the Divine in everyday activities.  Temple brings our bodies back to balance, increasing oxytocin and breaking the stress cycle. Together we create a flow that can fill and refuel the deep well of the feminine heart and body. Through creative and timeless embodiment practices we explore conversations with sensation, allowing the sensations to guide us into the deeper realms of our soft-body and ultimately the body of the Divine within.

Temple is open to biological women only

IN SISTERHOOD, WE DANCE, SING, CHANT, OFFER 

SACRED TOUCH AND SIT IN SILENCE WITH ANOTHER. 

WELCOMING EACH NEW MOMENT,

OUR JOURNEY IS CARRIED AND AMPLIFIED 

BY OUR COLLECTIVE AWAKENINGS.

* Meeting in essence and practicing presence
* Awakening and moving through states of consciousness
* Creating overflow through deep connection and the production of oxytocin
* Being seen. Being met.
* Exploring embodied spirituality. Exploring embodied connection and relationships
* Deepening the bonds of sisterhood. Connecting our communities
* Becoming comfortable in diversity. Allowing diversity to show us our similarities
* Creating space and softening from the inside out
* Learning to receive

WE COME TO TEMPLE TO PRACTICE:

SISTER, YOU ARE INVITED

TO COME AND CLAIM YOUR UNIQUE SEAT

IN THE CIRCLE

Our temple space is a place of wholeness, where much of our exchange happens in the realm of nonverbal full-bodied expression. Where the feminine and masculine energies are honored, appreciated and seen as an integrated divine human. Learning practices created with the intention of presence and self-care. 

Get ready to meet your sisters in essence,
learn to give and receive from overflow, and explore
what it’s like to be in the silent space without the
feminine shadow of competition, comparison, gossip
and viewing Self and others as broken.

Since the beginning of time women have gathered in community to renew, cleanse, and regenerate themselves and their sisters. The Circle creates a culture where we can explore the challenges of our modern world by accessing the wisdom of our bodies, the practice of presence, and the support of a circle rooted in the same dirt of our grandmother’s grandmothers, and all those before.

In this introduction to The Circle you will explore practices that enhance embodied presence and allow you to find your feminine flow. You will understand that physiology and biology of the effects of practicing in circle, as well as experience the magic and blessings of open and free sisterhood. 

Each of us are a sacred thread in the tapestry of the Divine.

Weave with Us.

What If

What if our religion was each other?
If our practice was our life? If prayer was our words?
What if the Temple was the Earth?
If forests were our church? If holy water - the rivers, lakes and oceans?
What if meditation was our relationships?
If the teacher was life? If wisdom was self-knowledge?
If love was the center of our being?

~ a poem by Ganga White

Sacred Bonds

  • "Katie is a teacher of presence and connection. She creates a sacred space of devotion, reminds us of the practice of feminine embodiment and how to be intimate with spirit in order to navigate our lives with inner guidance. Through meditation, mythology, touch, and dance she guides us to root in nourishment and live close to our heart."

    ~ Lauritz M.
