You arrive Sunday evening to a stunning space, you walk in the door and take a deep breath, feeling your body settle. No responsibilities.

You're here to let go of pushing through and obligations.

Pleasure church is so incredibly lush on so many levels. The pampering in and of itself SO worth the investment, but being a part of this carefully crafted community, being invited into my body and witnessed in my joy and grief and anger, is a transformative experience every time. I have been to every Pleasure Church so far, and Kat is a time witch for sure. Arriving is stepping through a portal to a different world. These weekends seem to stretch across years, packing so much nourishment and goodness into every moment without urgency. Whether I'm confronting my fears of trauma surfacing, making bold requests, or getting way more than I bargained for in meeting myself, Kat is a master of holding space for it all. Her gentle, loving, and fiercely protective support is a comfort and an inspiration all in one. How is it possible between all this there is so much time for play, relaxation, new connections to grow? Like I said, Kat is MAGIC. Leaving is always bittersweet, but I am more alive and more myself each time. There's nothing else like it.

Hi, I'm Kat Nantz

Welcome. 

I'm a somatic sex coach & Somatic Experiencing trained at the Advanced level. My passion is bringing more pleasure and freedom to folks who struggle to be in their body or who have experienced trauma (Hint! This is most of us!).

20 years of planning  group experiences of all kinds, kink parties, women's re-wilding events, being in nude spaces, group facilitation, exploring pleasure & arousal, working with 100's of people 1:1 and in groups created the unique life experience and learnings that had me dream up this beautiful liberating retreat

It is an incredible privilege to be a trusted guide in this work. I feel deeply honoured to hold folks in their most tender moments, to return them home to their body's and pleasure, to witness them in their bravest and scariest moments of becoming. 

I offer this work because it transformed my life, completely. I hope it will offer you the same gifts.

This five night retreat is not for the faint of heart...
We are showing up in this space together to shift what it means to be in relationship with our body, the erotic, community, to blur the lines between friendship and intimate relationships.
If you want to do something BOLD, something inspired, something that will feel life giving and life changing, this is it.

 

FIVE NIGHTS of connection, pleasure, freedom, liberation, and play!

What's included:

Workshops

Opening & closing ceremony, curated workshops on boundaries, somatic holds and exercises, pleasure, play, and self devotion facilitated & lead by Sex Coach & trauma practitioner Kat Nantz.

Plus! 1:1 photoshoots available with the amazing Lindsay 

Nourishing Food

 We take food seriously. This is such a big part of PC!

Breakfasts, lunches, dinners and all snacks are provided by us. While you're nourishing your soul & heart, we will nourish your body with delicious food

Warm Space

Join us in a stunning space in PORTUGAL with natural light pouring in, a pool, beautiful view. Look out at the magical landscape! Pick fresh fruit from the trees! Lounge in the hammock, or hottub!

Swag Bag

Tote bag full of self care and pleasure products from some of Kat's favourite brands, because we want you to feel spoiled!

Friendship

Cultivate new friendships and deepen into community.

Not many of us have had the experience of deep, intimate connecting, healing friendship, where we can be naked and bare it all (literally and figuratively) with friends. We are rewriting the script of friendship here.

Liberation

This space is for you. It's a reclamation of our wilder selves, our most true selves. You don't have to put parts of yourself away here. All of you is welcome.

Care

No cooking, no cleaning, no spouses or kids. We are here to serve you so you can relax, play and be cared for.

We will have a team of 4 support staff who will be on call to make sure all your needs are cared for.

 Nature

The space includes a pool, and stunning view! Is 10 minutes from the ocean, beautiful rolling landscape out each window, fruit trees and beautiful gardens to wonder through.

How many times in your have you danced at your erotic edges?
Where you embodied and felt celebrated for being in your glorious animal body?
How often have you followed your erotic, curious impulses?


This is what is being offered here. 

We are rewriting the script of relating. 
We're trading in enduring, pushing through, feeling obligated for full reverence, erotic playfulness, devotion to self and other, being our most honest and true selves.


Join us for a day of liberation, play, pleasure and connection.

Come be adorned, meet your erotic edge,
allow us to show up in reverence to you,
say YES to adoration, pleasure and play!
