Create deeper connections in a sensual indoor space. Going to the temple is completely voluntary.  It might include spending time with one or more friends in a close loving way.  There are guidelines for sharing this space in a way that is safe and comfortable for everyone, and following these guidelines is a requirement for all temple participants. 

Fun with the land, yourself & each other:  A Sensual Tour of La’akea  

with Tracy Matfin

Learn about how we work with nature to create a beautiful and functional environment on our farm. We will walk along our paths and find lots of berries, flowers and leaves to nibble on the way..

Tracy and Various Presenters

We welcome each other into the camp community and go over the nuts-and-bolts of camp culture and logistics. Let's find out who's here and what we have to offer each other! We'll spend much of the time moving around, meeting new folks and deepening existing relationships.

Forum Team 

The Forum is a group process developed at the German community ZEGG to provide a stage for whatever is happening inside the person: one's true motivations, deep feelings, ideas and emotions. The Forum helps facilitate transparency, sharing and clarifying unsolved situations of daily life, and it can be a catalyst for one's own personal growth.

with Amara Karuna
In a body-honoring community, we have a responsibility to educate ourselves on how to keep ourselves safe while having fun. We’ll practice talking with community and prospective partners about these issues.
We will explore the guidelines for participating in the Temple space, where we can be sensual in a respectful and safe environment.  

If you have never been to a temple at camp, this workshop is required in order to enter the space.

With Aniko Willoughby

A sweet variation on ecstatic dance, with lots of body contact.

With Judy Dolmatch

In PBT, audience members choose to share feelings, dilemmas and significant life events and the performers listen and spontaneously reflect this back using various theater approaches and improvisational music. This practice develops presence, keen listening skills, empathy, collaboration with other players, and creative expression.

with Shoshanna Crow

This session will be about the things that get in our way of revealing what is true for us and just becoming more in touch with how to work with our fears around self advocacy and vulnerability.

With Judy Dolmatch

A Death Cafe is a non-religions, judgment-free gathering where participants meet in small groups to discuss life, death, end of life, afterlife, mortality, grief and other related topics. There is no agenda beyond sharing one's views, feelings, and experiences and listening respectfully to others.

With Riana Good

Yummmmmm.  Breath, scent, taste, pleasure.  Feeding ourselves, feeding each other with deep nourishment and delight.

with Rebecca Loughman

Laughter Yoga is a fantastic way to change your state. With intention, you can take a low energy or sad state and bring it into a higher more vibrant place..  Laughter Yoga is done with intentional, laughing eye, gazing, and hand clapping..  You can’t get it wrong, it’s all about moving and awakening the energies in the body and mind,  being playful and laughing together.

Unlocking Desire Through Authentic Connection

Kalama Becker

In this immersive workshop, we dive into the art of erotic communication—learning to express desires, boundaries, and fantasies with honesty, clarity, and confidence. Whether you are navigating a long-term relationship, exploring new connections, or deepening your self-awareness, this workshop offers tools for cultivating intimacy through open dialogue.

What's Sex Got to do with Regenerative Culture? 

with Kelly Klein

In this experiential workshop, Kelly Klein outlines the connection between regenerative culture, which often is discussed in relationship to agriculture, and sacred sexuality. Utilizing solo, partnered, and group breath and movement practices, we will integrate this connection into our own bodies as well as our minds, particularly potent in this age of shifting paradigms. 

 with Gratitone

Enjoy playing and moving alone and together to wonderful music! 

with MIranda Groove

A R games involve leaning into an edge of vulnerability (with consent) and maybe sharing that which we are disinclined to speak about. It’s not uncommon for a new awareness to arise during the course of a game. Awareness is the start. From there, the healing is to transform, transmute, and let go. AR games are fun, dynamic, smile-inducing, and both light hearted and potentially encompassing deeper work! 

Exploring, cultivating and deepening self love. 

With Aleanu

This workshop teaches you ways to embrace all your parts - the ones you love and the ones you love to hate; how to make decisions connected to all your energy centers - the whole you; and how to track your capacity to care for yourself without judgment.

with Miranda Grove

Open to your aliveness by connecting with the group on the dance floor!  Unite in a rhythm and then dance your heart out!  We stay connected throughout the class and build our community feel by dancing TOGETHER!  Bring your style, personality and your booty!  See you on the dance floor!

Film screening with Kelli Klein

Magdalene Remembered is a poetic transmission of Christened Word, Luminous Body, and Provocative Image—an Erotic Short Film that bridges the divide between Eros and the Divine.

Witness Magdalene’s self-initiatory journey through mystery and revelation, weaving between the sanctuary of her bed and the secret caves of an ancient church. From taking holy sacraments to reclaim her Innocence, to descending into the underworld of a deeply erotic self-pleasure ritual.

with Kelli Field

This a blindfolded, moving in the mystery, bringing you into presence to listen to your body.

Let go of doing into being, releasing attachment or agenda.

You may explore touch with others, learning to attune without sight and recognize, find and communicate your boundaries.

Using all experiences (including uncomfortable moments ) as material for expansion and self empowerment.

with Otter and Touch

Gender? What’s that? You might think you know--many of us assume that people with yonis are women and people with lingams are men.

Guess what? Those descriptors are roles assigned to you at birth based on your physical characteristics. You’re then expected to adhere to behaviors, life choices, and professions that are “appropriate” for your assigned gender. Furthermore, depending on your culture of origin, those sociocultural expectations can and do vary wildly! How confusing 

with Signa Cheney and Sequoia

Practice skills and techniques to create a divine, sensual, conscious, expansive, healing, consensual, and very pleasurable spanking experience. Participants will experience both conscious giving and pleasure-oriented receiving.

with Signa Cheney and Sequoia

Gong, voice, singing bowls and more. Join us for a reverent, therapeutic sound bath, that will invite you to rest into deeper realms of the sacred within.

with Rebecca Sunny Lucero

This is a sacred silly improvisational skits and songs workshop! It is based on many games I learned in improv acting classes, and musical games I’ve learned at camps like singing alive! 

with Aiua Wild

This offers a perspective on processing our feelings and deepening our emotional intelligence. It helps with resolving conflict & trauma, and moving into forgiveness

One of the most fun parts of camp, is the fast and furious auction where you get to donate goods or services for the benefit of La'akea community!  Sell your products, your yummy self as a servant for an hour, or a a visit to your house or a massage!  All in good fun!

 Cabaret is one of the highlights of camp!  Come one, come all, and show us more about you! No talent is required - "if you can walk, you can dance; if you can talk, you can sing!"  Sing, dance, read poetry, share art, do a skit. 

 Honoring the experience of the past days, we will connect, reflect, and bid farewell to this incarnation of our community. Many hugs!
