Over dit evenement
UNLEASHED | Sensuality & play
You feel the fire. Softly whispering in your hips.
A hunger. A pulse. A creative knowing.
Maybe you've dulled it. Shut it down.
Wrapped it in shame, control or fears.
Maybe you've tried to channel it into relationships, work, or goals.
But this energy - your creative life force - doesn’t want to be managed
It wants to move.
It wants to be lived.
UNLEASHED is a deepening, immersive 3-day journey into the richness of your erotic nature. In a safe and gentle way, we explore sexuality not as performance, not as something to fix or flaunt, but as powerful energy. Creative. Playful. Wild. Grounded. Sensual. Sacred and profane. And most importantly: authentically yours.
This retreat is about reclaiming the parts of you you’ve hidden. Feeling the aliveness that comes when you meet your desire with truth and responsibility. And discovering how to move with that energy - in your body, in intimacy, and in life.
We work with Tantric principles, soft shamanic rituals, body-based practices and the wisdom of the pelvis. This is not about becoming someone else.
It’s about coming home to what has always been yours.
You can experience this retreat by yourself, floating with other group participants or in a deep dive with your beloved.
WHAT IS UNLEASHED?
UNLEASHED is one of the five retreats in the CORE Programme.

- Sacred sexuality & conscious sensuality
- Polarity play & eros
- Pleasure & emotional release

TESTIMONIALS
“I joined because I wanted to stay present, in the here and now, with my sexuality.” – R.
“This course has given me so much. It brought love, and total acceptance of myself—for who I truly am. No overthinking, just being. Being the sexual woman I am—and fully living that. I wish this for everyone!” – Catherine, 55 years
“I wanted to really breathe, to live, and to allow my sexuality to fully exist.
Chakra breathing opened up a whole new dimension I had never felt before. Being in such a heightened state brought waves of joy through my body.
This retreat shattered old beliefs I held about myself. It showed me I can trust and allow my body to express itself.
For the first time in my life, I truly felt orgasmic in my body. I found the trust that I too can feel deeply orgasmic—and I wanted to shout out: ‘Wow, I’m an orgasmic man!’” – Emiel, IT advisor
“I joined to face my fear around liberating my sexuality and the consequences that might come with it.
I reclaimed my sexuality and sensuality—and realised I want to keep them free.
I want to walk this path with purity and integrity, to receive support in staying in my own flow—without merging with others, without making harmful choices, and while staying true to myself.” – Nicky Keijzer, depth psychologist
