Meet the Founder
Temple Arts Alchemy - School of Ritual Arts was founded by Phoenix Amara in 2014.
Born from years of guiding individuals and groups through sacred sexuality, somatic ritual, and mythic storytelling, what began as intimate workshops and immersive retreats soon grew into a living body of work~where art, tantra, and ritual alchemy coverge to transform how we love, heal, and connect.
After more than a decade of teaching and facilitating, Phoenix recognized a longing in communities for deeper spaces of expression—places to not only heal intimacy wounds, but to awaken a new mythos as an old timeline dissolved. 
In a world bereft of rites of passage — Temple Arts Alchemy is pioneering in the space of helping anchor and root new foundations for a New Earth through art therapy, somatic healing, and reconnection to ourselves, one another and the earth.
Here you’ll find ritual immersions, retreats, and 1:1 journeys designed to help you embody your erotic power, cultivate sacred relationships, and reclaim the body as a temple of pleasure, love, and truth.
Phoenix Amara is an internationally recognized Prayerformance Ceremonialist, Writer, and Divine Feminine guide. Having mentored in esoteric studies and metaphysics since childhood, she pursued degrees in Visual Arts and Environmental Design, explored plant medicines, personal development modalities, and finally the erotic arts. For over a decade, she’s facilitated hundreds of ceremonies & journeys for clients, as well as mentoring thousands through her online and in-person trainings, retreats and events.
You can find her interviewing experts on the HOLY EROS PODCAST: exploring the intersection of Soul, Sex & Art. Her best-selling memoir, “Ascension of Gaia: The Resurrection of the Sacred Sexual Feminine”, documents her own healing path of connecting to her sexuality and earth-based wisdom. With training in somatic therapy, neo-tantra, sacred sexuality and performance art, you can discover the wild and wonderful experiences and coaching she offers through her website: www.phoenixamara.com
As the former founder of Awakened Woman Convergence (2016, 2017) she’s organized international retreats and conferences in destinations such as Bali & Arizona, performed and spoken on dozens on stages across North America such as DreamTalks, SoulPlay, Lucidity Festival, and Electric Love Festival and led retreats in sacred sites like the Pyramids in Egypt and Chichen Itza Pyramids. Additional qualifications include Somatic Embodiment Training Level 1, Authentic Relating Level 1, Non-Violent Communication Training, Personal Power with Lori-Ann Demers, Red Lotus Tantra Certification with Olivia Jade, Usui Reiki Levels 1, 2 & 3, Diploma of Visual Arts, Bachelors of Environmental Design, and feminine leaderships trainings with Nisha Moodley, Emily Utter, Love Leadership with Kamala Devi, Margie Pargie and others.
