Your relationship with the sacred — whether expressed through joy, grief, pleasure, or purpose — pulses with ancient rhythms that modern spirituality has tried to silence.

What if the emotions you've been taught to transcend aren't obstacles to your awakening, but portals to your most profound medicine?

This isn't another membership about escaping your humanity. It's a living temple where we reclaim the body as holy ground, where wounds transform into wisdom, and where your wildest expression becomes both prayer and liberation.

THE PATH OF YOUR BECOMING

A SIX-MONTH JOURNEY THROUGH THE TEMPLE OF YOURSELF

MAY: (Money) UNHOOKING FROM CAPITALISM WHILE STILL CREATING
Your body knows an abundance untouched by scarcity. This month, we liberate your nervous system from capitalist conditioning while honoring your divine creativity. Discover how to create from sacred purpose rather than hustle, and rest as revolutionary act.

JUNE: (Mother) FROM THE GODDESS TO THE GUTTURAL GRIEF OF MATERNAL LINEAGE
 The Goddess and your mother both live in your cells. We'll dive into how your maternal lineage shapes your relationship with receiving, nurture, and abundance. Transform ancestral patterns into medicine through embodied ritual and community witnessing.

JULY: (Father) FREEING YOUR SYSTEM FROM SHAME AND SECRECY
The father wound lives not just in memory but in muscle and bone. This month, we dismantle the patriarchal structures that keep you small through shame. Reclaim your authority by releasing secrets your body was never meant to hold.

AUGUST: (Rose) SEX, LOVE & RELATIONSHIP FROM A NOURISHED NERVOUS SYSTEM
When your nervous system feels safe, intimacy becomes sacred play rather than unconscious pattern. Explore how regulated bodies create revolutionary relationships, transforming how you give and receive love.

SEPTEMBER: (Receive) REST AND RADICAL RECIPROCITY
In a world that demands constant output, receiving becomes a revolutionary act. Learn the sacred art of allowing support, abundance, and love to flow to you without apology or diminishment.

OCTOBER: (Sword) BOUNDARIES AND BECOMING
True power comes from knowing where you end and others begin. Explore how clear boundaries create the container for your most authentic expression and the courage to be fully seen in your truth.

FROM THE TEMPLE KEEPER

Beloved Sacred Soul,

I'm Adriana, and I hold this Temple as both sanctuary and crucible—a place where Love Herself reigns as our highest guiding light.

For too long, we've been taught to keep God and our bodies in separate rooms—to transcend rather than embody, to purify rather than integrate, to rise above rather than dive within.

This Temple exists because I know the body holds stories the mind cannot contain. Because I've witnessed thousands transform their deepest wounds into their most potent medicine through embodied practice.

Because true liberation comes through the body, not around it.

If you're reading these words, something within you recognizes this truth. Your cells remember what your conditioning tried to make you forget—that you are both divine and wildly human, that your emotions are sacred messengers, that your pleasure is holy ground.

The Temple of Shakti awaits those ready to reclaim this knowing. To dance with both their shadows and their light. To heal in the embrace of community that honors the full spectrum of your becoming.

The medicine has always lived here, in your raw expressions of soul.

With fierce devotion,
Adriana

WHAT’S NEW IN THE TEMPLE OF SHAKTI

*

WHAT’S NEW IN THE TEMPLE OF SHAKTI *

A JUICIER, MORE SACRED CONTAINER FOR TRANSFORMATION

This isn't just a passive experience — it's an interactive, transformative vessel where you'll receive clearer guidance, deeper support, and more intentional connection. We've redesigned the structure to provide a stronger container for your growth, while still honoring the sacred chaos of authentic becoming.

A COMMUNITY OF DEVOTEES & SEEKERS

We're calling in souls ready to dive deeper together, to show up fully and witness one another through powerful, transformative experiences. This Temple is a space for radical reciprocity and nourishment — where you'll not only receive but give and grow alongside others on this sacred path.

HONORING YOUR UNIQUE HEALING JOURNEY

From your feedback, we've woven in exactly what you've asked for — more time for integration, nervous system regulation, somatic practices, and ancestral healing. The Temple of Shakti honors your body's wisdom, your unique healing journey, and the depth of your personal spiritual path.

DIVINE FEMININE LIBERATION IN ALL BODIES

Every ritual and teaching aligns with the energies of healing, empowerment, and divine feminine liberation. We've included new facilitators to deepen our understanding of queer liberation, ancestral wisdom, and sacred sexuality — all while holding space for your nervous system to rest, receive, and transform.

Welcome to the Temple of Shakti — this is the updated, upgraded, juicier offering your soul has been waiting for.

Body Temple Dance Friday Classes

Body Temple Dance is a somatic and spiritual wholistic approach and movement made for you to inhabit your body’s authentic pleasure, love, and aliveness.

This movement language and practice welcomes both the shadow and divinity.

Together we weave trauma-informed foundations based on nervous system education, embodied sex education, and traditional Tantric energy healing for self-healing and integration.

Everything we perceive about ourselves and the world comes from the state of our nervous system, yet none of us were taught how to work with this.

We all want to open to greater pleasure, reclaim our passion and live our soul’s purpose but there is a process of slowing and sustainable growing our valley of capacity for receiving.

BT Dance is a practice of prayer in movement with what is and learning how to be with discomfort without shutting down, running away, or attacking.

It is for those who wish to go deeper into the sacred world of somatics, feminine healing arts, movement, and expression as the ultimate healer of intimacy blocks, trauma, and reclaiming our purpose to love here on Earth.

VOICES FROM THE TEMPLE

"I am a therapist, healer, and teacher and I got here through the courageous work I did with Adriana 1:1, in retreats, in classes and in the riverbeds of Ojai. She loves hard. Let it resurrect/wash over you. (Your choice lol)"

Sam Gennuso

"I can say without a doubt that I've gone through more emotional growth & healing within that two-month container than I have in the past few years. It's been monumental for me, and I can't wait to keep working deeply with this medicine."

Sarah Rayne

"I was able to find a new creative release and deep connection to the world around me and to love. Honestly I don't have enough words to say how transformative this work together has been, but it's opened up a whole new aliveness and confidence previously unknown."

Maria

“This journey has been nothing short of a homecoming—a return to the truth of who I am, what I am here to do, and the medicine that has been waiting to pour through me all along. What I thought would take years of searching, unraveling, and struggling to integrate instead came in like a tidal wave of clarity, devotion, and deep embodiment. This path found me exactly when I was ready—even when my mind doubted, even when my conditioning resisted, even when my body held onto the old stories of limitation.”

Jenna

“This was a one of a kind experience and a true gift I will cherish forever more. It is so rare to be invited to connect fully to your body, your shadow, your creativity, AND your joy all at once, and to do so in a space that is not only trauma aware but trauma healing. Adriana's voice makes you feel held and rooted, while her energy inspires you to explore and reembody every inch and corner of your inner world, in a safe and incredibly potent way. This community is full of loving, beautiful, generous, brave and wild human souls seeking true intimacy”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Your mind might try to hold you back — that’s natural. There’s a part of all of us that clings to comfort, to what feels familiar and "safe," especially when stepping into deep soul work like releasing blocks, shedding old conditioning, and embodying something new.

    The truth is, this journey isn’t about staying safe — it’s about becoming free.

    Your ego might sound the alarm, throwing up objections like "I don't have the time," "It’s too expensive," or "What if I can’t commit?" — all in an attempt to keep you exactly where you are. That’s what the ego does. It protects the old version of you, even when your soul is aching for more.

    A powerful practice: write down every doubt or story your mind is spinning. Then ask yourself — "Is this actually true?"

    In the end, you’ll feel it in your soul if this is meant for you. It won’t be a logical yes — it’ll be a knowing that hums beneath the noise. If that call is already stirring within you, this is your chance to answer it.

  • “No matter what your age, or if you have never danced in your life, Adriana’s Body Temple Dance opened my body to a new way of loving. In one dance I began to open to my wisdom, my Crone and my connection to Mother Earth. I felt FREE. I had come home to the joy of the wild ride to life.” Karin

  • “Adriana is a skilled practitioner and guide, speaking from a depth of wisdom and experience that is rarely encountered. Just listening to her speak or guide kirtan is a special frontier of the heart. Her immediate and exact presence weaves itself throughout the course and leaves no stone unturned where undoubtedly, many have left them or cast them aside for too long.” — Anna Elizabeth

  • “Adriana’s work has been some of the most exciting and grounding trainings I have taken. She has so much energy and is able to connect with her students in a way that brings light to your deepest emotions, that otherwise might have continued to be ignored. Adriana has taught me to love harder the parts of me I was told was wrong. Her work is an ecstatic celebration with the shadow self. A coming home to the parts of you that seem scary. I absolutely love working with Adriana and highly recommend her work to anyone ready to dive head first full of laughter, crying, screaming, and love, into the expansiveness of their soul.”

  • To people who are considering it and aren’t necessarily there yet, I would encourage them. Even if you can’t envision yourself teaching, the process itself was so beautiful, in terms of meeting aspects of myself that I didn’t know they wanted to be expressed, and how being encouraged to move-- as Adriana teaches it, is so empowering! If nothing else, if you just take this-it is exceedingly empowering, and you will come out of that with a sense of body love, appreciation and connection to body, mind, spirit--It’s beautiful work.”
