Temple of Maia

Sacred shamanic & tantric temples, workshops, and retreats. MAIA's medicine is deep, edgy, empowering, and truly life-changing.

“We descend into our darkest parts... to rise into our next ascension”

About the organisation

MAIA translates to "great cosmic womb mother". Here, we walk the feminine path of transformation and expanded consciousness (all genders welcome), through mystery, shamanism, kink/BDSM, tantra, psychic somatics, spiritual initiation, and embodied experience. Our medicine specializes in shadow-work, sexuality, and the taboo — designed to take you deeper than any modality you've tried before.

We hold sexual-shamanic and tantric temples, retreats, and events — a world apart from play parties or conventional tantra spaces. True Temple Arts is a mystical practice, where sexuality and connection become the medium to meet yourself, and Spirit, more fully.

Our focus is trauma-work through shadow-integration: training the body to transmute shame, fear, and disempowering patterns into power, pleasure, purpose — and ultimately, liberation.

Held in integrity. This work goes deep, which is exactly why it's held with care. Every space we create rests on consent, accountability, and respect as non-negotiable ground. Read our full Code of Ethics here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jkN8ujAMYo40S8kY1l1wA2PIxapIbUtuiHTF8qVESvE/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.krffl3wzh2eb

Maia has been facilitating for 5 years, trained across multiple lineages and modalities, and is joined by a rotating circle of co-facilitators and organizers depending on the event.

Is this for you? Our container is built primarily for those already walking a path of embodiment, shadow-work, or conscious sexuality — this is not introductory work. Specifics (structure, requirements, nudity/touch policies, experience level needed) are laid out on each individual event page. If you feel called but not yet experienced, book a 1:1 session at templeofmaia.com.

If you believe sexuality is a path to expanded consciousness, you belong here. If you're ready to live embodied in your truth and your power — welcome home. Explore our upcoming events. We operate primarily in Europe & Bali.

    Temple of MAIA: A 4-Day Shamanic Immersion from victim to the CREATOR

    Embodiement is the first taught when I start writing this review about Maia's event.

    I felt really seen and accepted in all my light and darkness during this Shamanic Immersion.

    Stories, explanations and other constructs of the mind are "easy" to offer in my opinion, how complex they may be and eloquently expressed.

    I've been to two of Maia's events, a Temple night and this retreat.

    Both times I was impressed by how Maia embodies what she teaches.

    How she gives room to participants to really express other insights and inner convictions they may have, with full respect.

    Sometimes giving other perspectives with the remark that there can exist many truths at the same time.

    On both occasions I was also impressed how she could handle the way things unfolded without resisting them... and find the right response to grow the connection between the participants and also the healing and personal growth on many levels.

    "Know thyself..." at least a little better is what this event brought me, sometimes laughing about myself with compassion and gaining knowledge about why I sometimes do things that I'm convinced I do'nt want to do.

    Accepting all of myself with greater love and understanding allows my true Self to emerge more and more, for which I am grateful.

    Words can not describe how powerful this experience was.

    There is nothing like the spaces Maia creates. It feels like stepping into an alternate reality where I feel both deeply at home and in awe of the magic and synchronicities that unfold.

    Ra(aaawr)'s presence and power is palpable in the space and beautifully compliments Maia's work.

    The team all have their own medicine and contribution to what is created.

    If at any point you have lost faith in life / god. Come and reclaim magic here.

    One day after the retreat, so I can't really find the right words. But maybe that's because an experience like this can only be felt, not explained.

    Maia, the work you do is so deeply important. I am beyond grateful for what you created and for the transformation it has sparked within me. I can already feel a profound shift in my inner world, my life, and in what energy I want to bring into the world.

    And somehow, alongside all the dark, healing, and breakthroughs, I also found so much laughter. I didn't expect to have this much fun. I loved every second of it, dark & light.

    My heart is full. I'm excited, inspired, and so curious to see what unfolds from here.

    Thank you. ❤️

    Grensoverschrijdend en onethetisch. We zijn boos en overstuur eerder weggegaan.

    The facilitation was super nice. Maya did a great job on her own. Respect. To create a sacred container with such a large group from beginner to advanced. I loved it because i could really practice my boundaries, staying with my own truth. I saw the whole night as an experiment. To grow in consciousness, to evolve. Still something to learn. Loved the exercises we did. Nice there were so many spaceholders. Safety is really important in those settings and for me it was. As my first time Yes there were some triggers in the beginning and that's not a problem when there is a chance to discuss that all together, and there was. Thank you maya and team to create this! C u next time :)

    For me it was too much talking between the exercises and sometimes chaotic. I did like the things we were doing.

    Response from organisation

    Thank you for your feedback! I want to share a bit of context: the themes of this temple were chaos and the war between mind and heart. At the very beginning, I fully spoke into the chaos that was alive in the space. Rather than resisting it, we worked with it through a profound chaos ritual, allowing this energy to move fully through our bodies. It was a powerful moment, and after that, the container was held and grounded—the talking naturally ceased as the “war of the mind” dropped into the heart. Any talking between exercises came from questions arising from the chaos in people’s minds, which was exactly what Freya was working through in our systems.

    Every temple has its own unique medicine, and this one was about moving from mind to heart. In shamanic containers, we focus on embodiment and discovering your own truth through direct experience. Talking is not typical in these spaces—this temple was an exception due to the chaos energy present.

    Het begon chaotisch en het was erg mooi om te zien hoe dit werd erkend en een plek kreeg. Hierna ging het steeds soepeler en kregen de ervaringen alle ruimte voor hun helende werking. Hele fijne manier waarop alles er mag zijn en ruimte krijgt om met zo min mogelijk weerstand te zijn. Dat werd ook steeds benadrukt, niet alleen ruimte voor "lichte" intenties maar ook voor dierlijke verlangens. Een andere manier om Hoofd, Hart en Geslachtsdeel met elkaar te verbinden zodat dit alles zich kan uiten op een veilige manier. Mensen worden heel mooi op het moment dat dit allemaal puur kan stromen.
    Ik voelde mij hier thuis en welkom om te laten zijn wat er ontstaat in verbinding met de andere mensen. Kom er graag weer terug.
