𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗢𝗨𝗟 𝗦𝗘𝗫 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘 𝗜𝗡 𝗔𝗠𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗗𝗔𝗠
A new culture of intimacy, connection, and embodied presence.
What if your sexuality could be a gateway—not just to pleasure, but to healing, aliveness, and deep human connection?
The Soul Sex Practice is the foundational ritual of the Soul Sex Movement—a 3-hour in-person group experience guided by trauma-informed facilitators. Within a clear structure, you are gently invited into intimacy with yourself and others—whether a total stranger or a longtime partner. This is not about performance or peak moments. It’s about presence. It’s about awakening to what is truly alive in you.
Please take your time to read the full description below—to manage your expectations.
𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘?
The Soul Sex Practice is a self-development ritual grounded in sex-positive, inclusive values. We connect and explore beyond gender, race, preference, and ability/disability. Every session is co-created by the people in the room and lovingly crafted to meet the group’s specific needs.
You’ll learn to listen deeply to your body’s wisdom, express boundaries with clarity and care, and explore hidden desires with reverence. Together, we discover how sexual energy—our most potent life force—can be channeled not just for pleasure, but for profound transformation.
This is not a one-time experience. It’s a new imprint for your nervous system. A new way of relating. A new way of being.
𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗧
Our trauma-informed facilitator Elena, supported by a trained spaceholder, gently guides you into deeper intimacy—first with yourself, then with whoever is in front of you. Expect a mix of breath, movement, touch, presence, and communication, all framed in deep consent.
You are empowered to choose. Every exercise is an invitation. You can stay clothed or undress layer by layer (keeping underwear on, always). You decide what’s right for you in each moment.
You might experience:
Slowing down to feel what’s actually alive in you
Recognizing and unlearning unhealthy patterns
Discovering your ‘full body yes’ and ‘full body no’
Expressing clear boundaries (compassionate communication)
Meeting desire without pressure or expectation
Moving from genital-based to heart-and-energy-based intimacy
Feeling the power of breath and presence
Embracing vulnerability, rejection, and joy
Releasing shame and performance conditioning
Connecting soul-to-soul, heart-to-heart
… and yes—fun, laughter, and pleasure!
Even though the title contains the word sex, the emphasis is on slow. This is about tuning in, not turning on. Only by slowing the F down can we access what’s real: our deepest desires, our true limits, and our innate capacity for pleasure, joy, and creativity.
𝗙𝗟𝗢𝗪 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘
ARRIVAL
We begin and end together. Please arrive 15 minutes early to land softly. Doors close at the start.
PRACTICE
We start with a grounding meditation and breathwork, then move into partner exercises—both energetic and hands-on. Clothing is optional to a degree, but underwear always stays on. There is no genital contact or penetration.
You’re invited to explore connection beyond preference or identity—beyond gender, roles, or performance. Each exercise honors your autonomy and choice.
CLOSING
We end in a collective circle to share, integrate, and return.
AFTERGLOW
Many come out of curiosity. Many return again and again. No two sessions are ever the same. Every encounter is a mirror. Every group, a new constellation. This practice can shift your relationships—and your life.
𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗠𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧
The Soul Sex Movement is more than a practice—it’s a lifestyle, an art form, and a form of activism that reconnects us to ourselves, each other, and the Earth. By embracing slowness, truth, and deep presence, we end separation and reclaim our erotic aliveness.

Event Details
Hello beautiful soul,
Welcome to Lionsgate: Return to Self.
Every year on the 8th of August, the Lionsgate Portal offers a powerful invitation to pause, reconnect and remember who you truly are beneath the conditioning, expectations and roles you’ve learned to carry. It is a portal of expansion, alignment and heart-centred living: a moment to return to your own essence.
This ceremony is an invitation to come home to your Self.
To remember your essence and reconnect with your heart.
To listen to the wisdom of your body and give your Self permission to fully experience the truth of who you are.
This ceremony is not only about letting go. It is also about allowing your authentic life force to move freely again.
Together we will create a supported and sacred space where ceremonial cacao, a gentle microdose, sacred aroma frequencies, breath, music, movement and intuitive energy- & bodywork come together to support your journey inward. To become more of Self, to remember the essence that has always been within you.
Throughout the afternoon we will work with the Spirit of Mother Cacao, the wisdom of sacred plant medicines, reiki and Kundalini energy and the innate intelligence of your own body. Rather than seeking answers outside yourself, this experience is about awakening the wisdom, intuition and life force that already lives within you.
Ceremonial cacao has been honoured for centuries throughout Central and South America as a medicine of the heart. She gently softens protective layers, increases circulation, supports emotional openness and deepens our connection with ourselves, Mother Earth and the unseen realms. During this ceremony we will most likely share lovingly handcrafted Cambodian cacao, prepared with deep intention and devotion.
For those who feel called, we also offer an optional carefully guided micro-dose to deepen presence, awareness and connection with the body.
Sacred aroma frequencies will accompany our journey, intuitively chosen to support the collective energy of the group. These pure plant essences help clear stagnant energy, harmonise the nervous system and invite greater coherence within the body, mind and energetic field.
Alongside these sacred medicines, we will guide you through a deeply embodied experience. Through conscious breath, nervous system regulation, intuitive energy- & bodywork and space for authentic expression, we invite the body to release what it no longer needs to hold and step into the Self that wants to become.
So often we have learned to suppress emotions, silence our voice, disconnect from our body or make ourselves smaller in order to feel safe, loved or accepted. Over time this can disconnect us from our natural vitality and authentic expression.
This ceremony offers a space to gently soften those protective layers. To feel what wants to be felt. To release what is ready to move. And to express what has long been waiting to be seen.
That expression may arise through breath, movement, sound, tears, laughter, stillness or words. There is no right way. Your body already knows.
Our intention is not to create dependence on ceremony or facilitators, but to help you reconnect with your own inner guidance and your own healing intelligence. To remember that everything you seek already exists within you.
The 8-8 Lionsgate Portal amplifies themes of authenticity, purpose, self-love, courage and personal evolution. Whether you come seeking clarity, healing, emotional release, deeper embodiment, inspiration or simply a moment to reconnect with yourself, you are welcome exactly as you are.

🙏🏻 Tantric Healing Breathwork – Only Women
🔽 Graag alles doorlezen/ Read all 🔽
* Event English and or Dutch spoken
Elke 2e Woensdag van de maand
Een veilige plek waarin jij volledig mag landen in je lichaam.
Waar alles er mag zijn van blokkades, spanning en vastzittende emoties tot aan plezier, kracht en euforie.
In deze sessie werken we met verbonden ademhaling, drukpunten, energetisch werk, klank en beweging om jouw levensenergie weer te laten stromen.
✅️Wat is Tantric Healing Breathwork
Healing Breathwork is een vorm van ademwerk waarbij je dieper in je lichaam zakt en opgeslagen spanning, emoties en blokkades los kunnen komen.
Ik combineer dit met drukpunten en energetisch werk om het lichaam te helpen openen en doorstroming te creëren. (Healing Breathwork elke laatste dinsdag van de maand)
Bij Tantric Healing Breathwork ligt de intentie op het omarmen en laten stromen van jouw levensenergie en seksuele energie op een veilige en gedragen manier.
Dit gaat niet over iets bereiken.
Dit gaat over voelen, loslaten en terugkomen in jezelf.
Veel vrouwen zijn de verbinding met hun lichaam en hun seksuele energie en sensualiteit deels kwijtgeraakt.
Hier creëren we een ruimte waarin je die energie op een veilige manier weer mag openen, onderzoeken en terugpakken.
Je leert dieper zakken in je lichaam
Spanning en blokkades loslaten
Jouw sensualiteit opnieuw voelen en ontdekken.
Werken met adem, klank en beweging
Jouw energie zelf laten stromen
Zonder afhankelijk te zijn van een ander.
Alles gebeurt op jouw tempo.
Je voert alles zelf uit, met kleding aan.
🫂We werken in een groep van maximaal 15 vrouwen, zodat er ruimte is voor aandacht en diepgang. (2 of 3 spaceholders aanwezig bij een volle groep)
📍 Locatie: Kokopelli Amsterdam
🕒 Wanneer: Elke 2e woensdag van de maand 19:30
⚡️Dit is een uitnodiging om jouw kracht terug te pakken
Jouw lichaam weer te voelen
Jouw sensualiteit te herontdekken
Jouw levensenergie weer te laten stromen
Je bent welkom precies zoals je bent.

Naast deze sessies geef ik ook workshops en events op het gebied van tantra, kink en verbinding en heling.
Ik organiseer verdiepingsdagen voor bodyworkers en begeleid mensen in hun ontwikkeling en verdieping binnen dit werk.
Daarnaast geef ik massages, trancereizen en 1 op 1 sessies gericht op ademwerk, trauma en lichaamsbewustzijn.

We have female space holders, to make sure you feel safe and supported for the whole journey.
What you need to take with you?
• Socks (we will dance barefoot or in socks).

Maartje has been holding cacao ceremonies since 2022 and has her foundation in energy- and bodywork, like reiki, massage, cupping, different somatic practices and more.
