🌹 Earth Temple

  • FlourMill Space | Newtown Newtown, NSW Australia (map)

We invite you to join us at Earth Temple β€” an evening of embodied connection, conscious touch and erotic exploration, held within a space created for safety, sovereignty and pleasure.

Earth energy is foundational. Steady, supportive, and rooted. This theme centres on helping you come home to your body and find greater stability, presence and safety within yourself and in connection with others.

For so many of us, our understanding of intimacy has been shaped by limited guidance from past lovers and partners, pornography, and its warped portrayals of sexuality and general uncertainty around how to voice what we do, and don't want.

Temple is a unique and potent space to explore desire and intimacy on your own terms β€” held within a clear workshop framework that opens into organic flow, designed to reconnect you with your body's innate wisdom, amidst a community that leads with consent, care and reverence for every person in the room.

If you've never experienced anything like a Temple space before, it is one of the most powerful places to practise showing up for yourself, to better show up for others, and to nourish your longing for connection β€” whether platonic, sensual or sexual. All are sacred here.

A Journey Through the Elements

Each Temple moves through a sacred framework drawn from the heart of Tantric wisdom β€” the Pancha Mahabhutas, or five great elements.

Each gathering is devoted to one element, guiding us on a journey from the most grounded, physical layers of experience all the way into pure, expanded consciousness.

Are you ready for the journey?

The first element is Earth β€” Prithvi β€” I am here. We begin where all things begin, in the body. Earth is the element of grounding, solidity and safety. In Tantra, Prithvi invites us to fully inhabit our physical form, to feel the weight of our presence, and to discover that the body itself is sacred ground. This is the foundation from which all intimacy grows.

Each gathering is unique in itself β€” and together they form something greater: a living, breathing map of the human experience, held in community, consent and reverence.

The Foundation: Consent, Boundaries & Setting Intentions

From the moment the doors close and the circle is opened, you'll be guided through a foundation of agreements, boundaries and intentions with Tilly and Charlotte β€” learning practical tools for communicating your desires, your edges and the shifting landscape in between. Here, consent forms the architecture of the night.

Temple then opens as an educational and experiential space where the act of conscious relating is taught, modelled and practised throughout the entire evening.

You will never be expected to do anything you don't feel a full body "Yes" to. Every practice is an invitation, not an expectation. Watching, resting, dancing and witnessing are all honoured ways of being in this space. Wherever you are on your journey, there’s something here for you to explore.

The evening continues to unfold slowly and gently through a series of tantric practices facilitated by Charlotte β€” each one building on the last, inviting you to express and explore different aspects of yourself. We’ll move through breathwork, somatic exercises, verbal communication, body language, play, archetypal work, guided practices of conscious touch and more, with room to meet each practice in your own way. No two Temples are ever the same.

The Journey

Arrive & Connect - Doors open at 7pm and close at 8pm. We will not admit late arrivals. Arriving early gives you time to settle in β€” especially if it's your first time.

Opening Circle - We ground into the space and establish shared agreements that honour consent, boundaries and respect. Everyone receives a clear transmission of how to show up so the space can be safely held by all.

🌹 Embodied Awakening - You'll be guided through practices to help you arrive in your body and in connection with those around you. Movement, voice activation and playful contact dance awaken your clear "yes", your empowered "no" and all the colours in between.

🌹🌹 Sacred Touch - As you soften, you'll be guided into sacred touch rituals β€” the gentle caress of feathers and roses, the nourishing touch of group massage. An invitation to surrender to the art of giving and receiving, on your terms, at your pace.

🌹🌹🌹 Sensual Exploration - You may choose to remain in sacred touch or explore a deeper expression of intimacy. This is slow, conscious, guided sensuality β€” where breath, energy and attunement lead. Many people find that years of limiting conditioning begin to unravel here. This is a space to discover your truest desires through conscious connection.

For the rest of the evening we move into organic free flow, with the invitation being simply to follow what feels authentic for you. That may be dancing, dropping into deep conversation, a cuddle puddle or something more sensually or sexually intimate. This is your space, your pace, your body's wisdom held sacred.

We want to emphasise that there is no expectation for escalation, however it is essential to be comfortable around nudity and intimacy as it organically unfolds during the event.

Things to Note

  • ​Respect the Space: Please treat the venue and everyone in it with love and care. We are all responsible for the energy we bring into this space.

  • Dress Code: Wear what makes you feel both comfortable and confident. Most guests arrive in smart casual clothing, and dress down to lingerie, briefs or nudity as the massage practices begin.

  • Substance-Free Event: Consent requires clarity, which is why this is a drug and alcohol free space. We invite you to embrace the natural magic of tantra without substances β€” you may be surprised how high you can go.

  • Inclusivity: Open to all genders, sexual orientations and relationship styles. Singles, couples and all constellations are warmly welcomed.

If you have any questions, or if you're a first timer and want to know more before you arrive, please reach out. There is no question too small, and helping you feel prepared and genuinely safe before the evening begins is something we are honoured to support you with.

We can't wait to welcome you into this space.

Upcoming Temples

β†  Water β€” Apas / Jala (22nd August)
I feel. Water is the element of flow, emotion and sensation. In Tantra, Apas governs the sacral centre β€” the seat of creativity, desire and feeling. This gathering invites us to soften, to move with rather than against, and to explore the fluid, ever-shifting landscape of our emotional and sensual experience.

β†  Fire β€” Agni / Tejas (24th October)
I act. Fire is the element of transformation, will and desire. Agni burns away what no longer serves and awakens the life force within. In this gathering, we call on the power of the flame to ignite our authentic desires, to digest old conditioning, and to step into our full erotic power with clarity and intention.

β†  Air β€” Vayu (18th December)
I love. Air is the element of breath, love and connection. Vayu lives in the heart centre β€” where touch becomes tender, where breath becomes the bridge between two people. This gathering explores intimacy as an act of love: the kind that is spacious, attuned and deeply human.

β†  Space / Ether β€” Akasha (27th February)
I am. Ether is the most subtle of all elements, the space in which everything arises and returns. Akasha is the energy that moves between two people before touch, before words. Felt through a held gaze, a shared breath, the electric quality of proximity. This final gathering is an invitation to feel what is usually unfelt, and to discover presence itself as the deepest Tantric practice there is.
