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.

🙋🏻‍♀️Over mij – Sanne Croese
Ik werk al jaren met ademwerk, lichaamswerk en energetisch werk en begeleid vrouwen en koppels in het terugkomen in hun lichaam en kracht.
Mijn manier van werken is nuchter, afgestemd en diepgaand zonder zweverigheid.
Ik creëer een veilige en heldere setting waarin jij kunt voelen wat er in jou leeft en waarin alles welkom is.
Van zachtheid tot intensiteit en alles daar tussenin.

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.
Dit doe ik zowel individueel als in groepsvorm.

Alles wat ik doe staat in het teken van jou weer laten verbinden met jouw lichaam, jouw energie en jouw eigen waarheid.
Altijd met respect voor jouw grenzen en jouw tempo.

💥Meest gestelde vragen

Moet ik aangeraakt worden
Nee. Je voert alles zelf uit.
Ik werk alleen met drukpunten bij vrouwen die hier bewust voor kiezen.

Moet ik ervaring hebben
Nee. Deze sessie is toegankelijk voor zowel beginners als ervaren deelnemers.

Mag iedereen meedoen
Nee.
Heb je last van recente psychoses, hartklachten, epilepsie of andere gezondheidsklachten overleg dan eerst even voordat je deelneemt.

Ik vind het spannend om mijn seksuele energie uit te nodigen of te omarmen
Geen probleem. Juist dan ben je welkom.
Dit is vaak de eerste stap om deze energie weer van jou te maken.
Er is geen goed of fout alleen jouw eigen tempo en ervaring.

Ik ben bang voor triggers
Dat kan gebeuren. Geluiden of oefeningen kunnen iets in jou aanraken.
Wij zorgen voor een veilige setting en begeleiding.
Zie het als een uitnodiging en een mooie stap in jouw proces altijd binnen jouw eigen grenzen.

If you long to be connected to your magnetic self – embrace the Dark Feminine side and want to explore her ways..
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮, 𝐦𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐫.

What if you could express your full powerful, sensual self and be celebrated for it? That’s what we are going to do in the Dark Feminine Ecstatic dance gathering.

Gift yourself a moment of self discovery and pure freedom to be who you are.

Dance as sensual, powerful and free or still as you need. Move as the body calls you. Release. Shake out. Play and discover how your inner dark feminine wants to express.

Open your heart in cacao ceremony and fill up your cup with your authentic energy.

Treat yourself with an ecstatic dance for women only (or if you identify as one)! Join on your own or with girlfriends.

This dance journey is a blend between:
cacao ceremony + ecstatic dance + somatic practices + sharing circles like in women’s circles and connecting to each other + other offerings
(It’s much more than just Ecstatic Dancing)

No dance experience needed!

You can arrive from 18:15 to get ready
We start with a sharing – get to know each other circle.
At 18:30 we begin cacao ceremony for softening in the presence.
The journey will be 2 hours long – from surrendering to emotions followed by a blissful rise into freedom.. dancing uniquely as your body wishes in the moment.
Finishing up with a loving sharing circle that always brings deeper connection.
20:30 we close the journey, but there’s time to talk and catch up with each other.

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).
• Special outfit that allows you to move freely and feels amazing (you can change on the spot).

Come to dance and play in a beginner guided dance journey with Dark Femme! It’s time you discover and step into your power.

The hosts – Linda is a Relationship Coach:
She started to dance when she was 6, now she’s 34 and feels like her dance journey has just began. Teaches social dancing (Salsa, Kizomba, Bachata) and African dances for 9+ years. She is also our cosmic DJ. Linda leads communities like her Femininity Community ❤️‍🔥

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. From 8 years old she is classically schooled in playing the flute, solo and in orchestra. When her holistic path evolved, so did her instruments and understanding of music.

We are so looking forward to meet you (again), and to what this evening is going to bring. If you have any questions or remarks, please feel free to reach out to us.

Until then, much love,

Linda, Maartje and Iina
