🏛️ Velvet Temple : Desire alchemy
Velvet Temple is your invitation to journey with your ErΦs through the portal of sensation.
Each edition explores a different facet of embodied pleasure, from soft surrender to playful mischief to the mysteries of transformation.
Think ancient Priestess Temple with a modern twist.
In this edition, we step into the Alchemy of Desire, where the body becomes the crucible, pleasure the flame, and curiosity the catalyst.
Here, every sigh, shiver, and spark is an ingredient in the great experiment of Eros.
We mix, melt, and transmute together, turning shame into gold, hunger into art, and touch into spellcraft.
This is a Temple of curiosity and transformation, where the sacred and the sensual meet in play.
You’re invited to explore new sensations, discover what lights your inner fire, and let yourself be changed by connection.
Nothing is expected. Everything is invitation.
✨ NEW TO TEMPLES?
A Consent workshop will be held on Wednesday 18th February 7pm - 10pm: this is mandatory for those of you who haven’t attended Temple spaces before and open to those wishing to learn more about Consent. We’ll cover topics around Consent and Temple etiquettes. This aims at offering you the opportunity make the most of your time at Temple. Make sure you book your Consent workshop ticket before or at the same time as your Temple ticket. If you cannot attend this date and are new to Temples, please book a private session to learn about our Consent framework.
🪞 What to Expect AT TEMPLE:
Consent talk and guided practices to explore what Embodied Consent means in a playful context.
Sensory experiences designed to heighten awareness, connection and mischief, think feathers, blindfolds, whispers, taste tests, and more…
1:1 and group invitations to explore curiosity, play, and desire in a supported, slow-paced way.
Free-flow time to move through stations, rituals, or quiet integration, following your desires or your stillness.
A non-performative space where every body, desire, and expression is welcome.
This temple welcomes all bodies, all genders and sexual orientations, and those attending solo or with loved ones.
This is not a free-for-all. It’s a space for intentional, consensual connection. Just because you want to play with someone doesn’t mean they’ll want to play with you, and that’s okay. Desire isn’t owed, and we honour everyone's autonomy here.
