04/06/2024, Studio City (address given once your ticket has been paid for)
Get ready to immerse yourself into a tantalizing night of primal, sensually-charged play at our cats-themed Ecstatic Dance Temple Conscious PlayParty. Coled by 3 amazing Tantrika’s Monique, Peter, and Indiana.
Bring your inner-kitty, cat ears & cat claws, and leopard print to play! We’re talking about a stimulating, sensual night where you drop into a liminal group-touch and dance space where we explore consent, arousal-heightening, and erotic movement in a group and solo dynamic.
We kick off with some group games to bond/sync the group-field, shaking off the ordinary and tuning into ourselves, as part of a whole, for a night of extraordinary touch-connection. Next up, a straightforward, no-nonsense chat about consent, safety, and empowerment on the dance floor – because feeling safe & sxxy is key to letting your wild side loose. Then, hold onto your spots, because after you will be released into the Wild for Freeplay.
This is your chance to let loose, dive deep into those juicy connections, and spend quality time with other kitties who came to play, dance, and nuzzle the night away. It’s more than just moving to the beat; it’s about unlocking a part of you that’s been waiting to be experience this liminal, inclusive, body-indiscriminate space. Don’t just show up – show up and show out in your wildest kitty embodiment, and let’s make this a night to tell stories about for years to come!
What does “temple party” mean?
In short, it is whatever it means to you. We attach the word ‘sacred’ to any practice, experience, or way-of-being that slows us down and deepens our experience of being alive.
Our sensuality/sxxuality are a manifestation and expression-of our vital life-force and creative energy. It can play, move, and be shared and enjoyed in many ways. You are invited to co-create whatever feeds your soul.
Participation with a capital “P” can mean many things and voyeurs are as warmly welcomed as the most actively engaged. It’s a sensual space where participants are encouraged to explore themselves and others in ways that are stimulating, nurturing, exciting, safe and FUN!
This is the party you want to come to if you’ve never been AND this is the party you want to come to if you want to experience how to take generating safe play space for you and your loved ones to the next level.

About Indiana
Indiana’s a true wizard in teaching the art of slow intentional sensual massage for women and couples for more bliss, surrender and satisfaction. But his path wasn’t always smooth. He was once a guy scared, depressed, and as numb as a frozen mackerel because he was clueless about talking to women, let alone sharing intimacy with them. His journey of transformation began with a life-changing trip to Bali, where he discovered Ecstatic Dance. This wordless, formless dance helped him overcome his fears and find confidence, eventually leading him to own the dance floor as if he’s born for it. His exploration continued in Austin, Texas, where he delved into tantra and discovered a world of inner peace, self-love, and temple parties. Now, Indiana shares his wisdom through workshops on personal boundaries, vulnerable conversations, consent-conscious communication, and, of course, the art of sensual touch. He’s a living testament to the power of personal growth and helping others find their way to deeper connection and radical self love.
