Temple Body Arts Mystery School
The CEremonIalist Path
The Era of Your Sovereign Queen Begins Here.
A 13-Month Sacred Feminine Arts Initiation for Women Ready to Step Fully into their Artistry, their Ceremony and their Global Stage.
This is the path where all of you gets to come online.
The artist. The muse. The priestess. The healer. The CEO. The visionary. The Sacred Rebel. All of You.
You are the woman who is done choosing between the altar and the offer. Between devotion and strategy. Between the feminine and the structure that lets it land.
A new wave of leaders is rising, women who don’t just hold space, but create art. Who don’t just facilitate, but perform as ritual.
This is the Ceremonialist. And this is her path. Where your leadership and artistry become one.
Where your ceremony and your business are built from the same devotion. Where pleasure is the strategy and overflow is the model.
This is what you’ve been searching for. And sister, you just found it.
Welcome Home
YoU Know There's More
◆ You can’t remember the last time you felt genuinely turned on by your life, alive with creative life force coursing through your veins.
◆ There is a dream you put away a long time ago, the artist, the performer, the woman who wanted to move people, create ceremony, take the stage. You told yourself it wasn’t practical. But she never really left.
◆ You’ve built something real and respectable the business, the practice, the life that made sense. And it is real. And something is still missing. And you know exactly what it is.
◆ You’re running on pressure, the push, the should, the next thing. Your body is exhausted from leading a life that looks right on the outside but doesn’t feel fully alive on the inside.
◆ You are ready to stop choosing between the practical and the sacred, the leader and the artist, the CEO and the priestess, and finally give yourself permission to be all of it. Unapologetically all of YOU!
You look like a success to everyone else. But your thresholds the loss, the grief, the transformation, the becoming are not just your personal story. They are medicine. And there is a lineage waiting to show you how to lead from that place.

The Lineage
TempLe Body Arts® is not a traIninG. It is a livinG lineAGe and a worLDwiDe movement.
Here's what I see happening.
Women are exhausted. Because they’ve been building their leadership on a blueprint that was never designed for them.
For centuries, the patriarchy has asked women to lead like men. To separate their power from their pleasure. To push through their cycles instead of sourcing from them. To silence the womb wisdom, the deep cyclical knowing that is, quite literally; the source of all life.
And we called it success.
Every “feminine leadership” program that was really just hustle in a flower crown, was activating you without rooting you. Moving you without landing you in the one source of power that has always been yours.
You don’t need more activation, my love.
YoU neEd a LineAGe to stand on.
You are not here to lead like a man. You are here to rise as the Sovereign Queen you were always meant to be.
Your womb knows things your mind cannot access. Your cycles carry innate wisdom that no strategy can replicate. Your body… synced with the moon, the earth, the seasons, is the most sophisticated leadership instrument that exists.
This is what has been pushed aside. This is what we are reclaiming.
Pleasure over Pressure. Cycles over grind.
Sovereignty over performance.
I chOOse pLeAsure
over pressure
This is our strategy inside Temple Body Arts. To go against what culture teaches us. To come back again and again to this one choice and in doing so, remember that we are the ones designing our lives. That how we respond, how we move, how we create is always a choice. This is a powerful way to move through the world. And it begins here.
“As a doctor, I looked successful on the outside. Inside, I was completely misaligned. Sofiah walked beside me through all the rites of passage. I had never felt so seen, so heard, and so held.”

Is this YoU?
You are already leading. Already holding space. Already showing up.
But the missing piece is not another training. It is you, fully embodied in your essence. Becoming the dance. Becoming the ceremony. Becoming the ritual.
When you are the channel, your artistry flows through naturally. Your message becomes transmission. Your presence becomes the practice.
But you have to live it to be it. You have to choose yourself, fully, devotedly, unapologetically, in order to be chosen.
Your body is the temple. Your artistry is your ministry.
This path was built for you.
feEL yoUr womb CallinG yoU
home to the truth of yoUr soUL.
Where you get to live your YES. Where you give yourself full permission
to take up unapologetically S P A C E on the global stage.
what makes the tempLe boDy arts CertifiCation Different?
Most certifications hand you a framework and send you out hoping you figure out the rest.
The Ceremonialist Path is a living initiation AND a professional certification woven together so that by the time you graduate, you are not just trained. You are transformed. You are a fully embodied, multi-dimensional Ceremonialist trained across sacred embodiment, womb wisdom, trauma-informed facilitation, sonic ceremony, ritual performance, stage presence, and feminine business. The methodology lives in your body. The lineage runs through your work.
You don’t graduate with just a certificate. You graduate with the embodied artistry, the facilitation mastery, the lineage, and the global sisterhood network to lead at a legendary level. There is no other certification that gives you this.
“The difference between a DJ who plays tracks and a Ceremonialist who leads activations through sound and guided journeys.”
The CeremoniaList Path
Master-Facilitation
THE CEREMONIALIST PATH
13 Months · Master Facilitation · Full Certification ·
You are becoming the Sovereign Queen of your craft.
You walk into any room, on stage, in ceremony, in circle, and the field shifts.
Not because you followed the old blueprint. Because you have learned to lead from a completely different frequency… the new earth frequency of your soul essence, your body wisdom, your deep feminine intelligence.
You have been trained, initiated, and fully embodied in the artistry of holding sacred space. And what moves through you now is not a formula you memorized, it is a living transmission you have become.
You lead full-body dance journeys that move women to tears. You weave vocal activations and sonic ceremony from the stage. You design rituals that mark real rites-of-passage. You facilitate from your womb, your cyclical wisdom, your own lived initiations, co-creating with the divine in every moment, and women feel the difference between someone performing leadership and someone living it.
You are not alone. You stand on a 30-year lineage. You belong to a global sisterhood. And your artistry has become your ministry.
What holds you through the 13 months:
◆ Three monthly Embodiment transmissions & Mentorship with Sofiah
◆ Master facilitation calls with global artists, ceremonialists, DJs and master trauma-informed experts
◆ Queens Chamber integration circles with current students and alumni
◆ Lifetime access to the complete Temple Body Arts Digital Video library + 280 page Manual
◆ Three Mastery Certifications upon completion (Ceremonialist, Trauma-Informed Facilitator Training, Sonic Ceremony)
◆ 7-Night All-Inclusive Rite of Passage in the lush jungles of Costa Rica (in-person) if you choose to include this in your experience.
This is a professional mastery certification and a premium path. It is designed that way intentionally.
If you’ve been desiring to uplevel your offerings and create sustainable wealth from your work, you already know that we have to be willing to invest in ourselves at the level we desire to receive.
This is that investment. Investment details are shared in the application process.
Once you apply, Sofiah will send you a DM to let you know if you are accepted and open up a conversation.
SELF-MASTERY
The VisiOnnaIrE Path
6-Month Self-Mastery
Perhaps you feel the call to the stage, to ceremony, to sharing your voice in a bigger way, but you know, honestly, that you need to do the inner work first. The self-mastery work. The foundation.
This is your doorway.
Six months from now, everything feels different.
You have stopped running on pressure and learned to choose pleasure, in your body, in your business, in the way you move through your days. You are listening to your cycles, honoring your rhythm, returning again and again to the deep well of wisdom that lives within you.
You are no longer looking outside yourself for the answers. You are sourcing from within.
Your vision has come online. You know what you are here for. Your purpose is awake. Your innate gifts are no longer a question. You can see your role, your medicine, your next step forward, clearly, for the first time.
You are rooted in your divine inheritance. You know your value. You know what you are here to offer. And you are finally ready to stand on that foundation, fully, unapologetically.
You are not becoming a facilitator yet. You are becoming yourself.
And when you are ready for the stage, it will be here waiting.
This is not a lesser path. This is where everything else becomes possible.
What holds you through the 6 months:
◆ Monthly 2-hour embodiment transmission with Sofiah, held with the full school
◆ Monthly mentorship call with Anya Devi or Nicole Oshia, trained TBA facilitators who have walked this path before you
◆ Queens Chamber integration circles, intimate gatherings led by current students and alumni of the lineage
◆ Lifetime access to the Temple Body Arts Digital Video library + 280 page Manual
◆ The Costa Rica Rite of Passage is primarily held for Ceremonialist students. When space allows, we open doors to Visionnaire students and alumni. Express your interest on your application.
Held and supported by Temple Body Arts artists and alumni including Skylar Temple Singer.
The Investment
The Ceremonialist Path is a 13-month professional mastery certification.
When you complete this path, you will be a fully trained, trauma-informed facilitator equipped to lead safe embodied ceremonies, guide deep transformation, and build a body of work rooted in a 30-year lineage that gives it unshakeable ground to stand on, and the professional credibility to match,
This is an initiation into a new level of leadership, artistry, and feminine business.
Women who walk this path do not return to their previous offerings unchanged.
They raise their prices. They step onto bigger stages. They finally have the lineage, the skill, and the unshakeable confidence to charge what their work is truly worth.
And for the woman who has already built the income, she finds something rarer. The way to lead from a place so anchored, so alive, so deeply pleasured, that her business becomes an expression of her devotion.
This is the sacred marriage of the priestess and the CEO.
The investment reflects the depth, the caliber, and the transformation this path delivers.
Full investment details are shared within the application process.
What Lives InsiDE the Path

Once you apply, you’ll be invited to book a visioning call
Here’s something nobody else in this space is talking about.
The hardest part of building a life as a ceremonialist, performer, and embodiment leader is not the training. It’s breaking through alone. Trying to get booked when nobody knows your name. Trying to build your vision without the right collaborators. Trying to create the music, the art, the ceremony, the talk, without a team of women who genuinely want to see you rise.
The Temple Body Arts global network changes all of that.
When you enter the Ceremonialist Path, you are not just joining a certification program. You are plugging into a living, breathing, worldwide network of Ceremonialists, performers, DJs, dancers, musicians, healers, speakers, and embodiment artists, all actively building, collaborating, and sharing what is actually working when it comes to getting booked, getting seen, and getting paid to offer your gifts.
Your sisters will feature you on their stages. You will feature them on yours. You will co-create performances, retreats, wellness events, and ceremonies together. You will refer each other, amplify each other, and open doors for each other that would have taken years to find alone.
Whether you are preparing for a TED talk, a festival main stage, a corporate wellness keynote, a sound healing evening, or your first sold-out retreat, you will not be building it alone.
The sisterhood is not just the spiritual support. It is the actual career strategy.
Because when you are surrounded by women who are already booked, already leading globally, already performing and speaking on main stages, and they know you, they trust you, they have been initiated alongside you, everything changes.
STEP INTO THE SLIPSTREAM, AND WATCH YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE.
I have seen it happen again and again.
Connection = Currency

The Roots ~ Four Generations
Sofiah was born into four generations of Subud (Susila Buddhi Dharma) a spiritual lineage devoted to awakening inner nature and surrendering to divine will. This is not background. It is the root system of everything she teaches.
Alongside this spiritual inheritance, she has spent over three decades in dance therapy, tantra, expressive healing arts, and ritual practice, weaving them into the methodology you are stepping into now.
A Lifetime on Stage
Since the age of 9, performance was woven into her spiritual path. By 12 she was on stage solo. By her early 20s she was collaborating with music producers, sharing her vocals performing at festivals across Europe and the U.S, and dancing in front of thousands offering her sacred performing arts. This year she heads to the Czech Republic and Iceland to perform and teach.
When she teaches Stage Presence, Ceremony, Ritual Arts, and Master Facilitation inside the Mystery School, she is not just teaching from her manual. She is passing on a transmission she has been living for decades.
A Global Movement
What began over three decades ago has become a worldwide movement, women offering their gifts across the US, Canada, UK, Europe, and Central America. On stages, in ceremony, in online sanctuaries. In collaboration, not competition. Rising together.
When you enter the Temple Body Arts Mystery School, you are joining a living, growing, global lineage, and that lineage will hold you, see you, and walk beside you long after the 12 months are complete.
Why Now
The StanD I'm Taking
“The world will be saved by the Western woman.”
— The Dalai Lama, Vancouver Peace Summit, 2009
I feel this in my bones. Especially now. In these times.
I am taking a stand for women rising. For women reclaiming their sexual sovereignty. For women stepping into their power and their devotion, not one or the other, but both.
I stand for all women knowing their power, their wisdom, their voice, so they can fully remember who they are.
This is why the Ceremonialist path exists. Not just to certify you … but to ensure this work moves through the world responsibly, powerfully, and with the integrity it deserves.
Meet Your Mentor
SofIAh Thom
Before we tell you about Sofiah let us tell you about the women who have walked this path before you.
Women who never used to dance are now leading full-body ritual dance journeys for hundreds. Women whose voices were silent are now singing on stages for thousands, creating music with producers, performing vocal activations that crack people open. Women who never called themselves artists are now booking DJ sets, leading sonic ceremonies, and producing their own 100-person festivals and gatherings.
Women in this lineage are writing books and becoming bestselling authors. They are creating their own methodologies, their own signature soul offerings, their own schools. They are leading moon circles, facilitating globally, speaking on stages and summits, featured internationally. Some came in as coaches and healers. They leave as fully expressed, multi-dimensional Ceremonialists performing, creating, leading, and living their artistry in ways they never imagined possible.
This is what becomes possible when you are held in the right lineage.
Sofiah Thom has spent over three decades weaving together dance therapy, tantra, expressive healing arts, ritual practice, and sacred performing arts into the living methodology you are stepping into now. She was born into four generations of Subud a spiritual lineage devoted to awakening inner nature and surrendering to divine will. This is not background. It is the root system of everything she teaches.
Since the age of 9, performance was woven into her spiritual path. By 12 she was on stage solo. By her early 20s she was performing at festivals across Europe and the US, collaborating with music producers, dancing in front of thousands. She has been leading global online sacred gatherings from her jungle home in Costa Rica for seven years. This year she heads to the Czech Republic and Iceland to perform and teach.
When she teaches Stage Presence, Ceremony, Ritual Arts, Sonic Ceremony, and Master Facilitation inside the Mystery School she is not teaching from a manual. She is passing on a transmission she has been living for decades.

A CurateD SanctUary
This is not a program you purchase. It is a living lineage you enter.
We review every application with care and intention, not to gatekeep, but to honor the integrity of the container.
Because when every woman in the room is at a similar level of readiness, the field becomes extraordinary.
You have trained widely, led courageously, and shown up for your path even when it was hard. And when you found Temple Body Arts, something in you recognised it. Like coming home to something you didn’t know you’d been missing.
You are ready. Not someday ready. Now ready.
If that is you, we want to hear from you.
Frequently Asked Questions
FreqUEntly AskeD QuEstiOns
Yes. You may begin with the online Ceremonialist and upgrade to the full Ceremonialist path if there is space available. However, the Full Journey price is significantly better value, so if you already know you’re called to activate your Ritual Artistry and be together in the flesh, we encourage you to find a way and say YES now.
All calls are held 11am–1pm PT.
Ceremonialist students meet 3 Thursdays per month — 2 hours each — with one integration week off per month.
All calls are recorded if you cannot attend live.
This is a group container with hot seat coaching on calls. There is no 1:1 access included, though private sessions with Sofiah or facilitators may be available at a reduced student rate.
Yes. Payment plans are available for all paths. Details will be shared during the application process.
You receive lifetime access to the Temple Body Arts main portal and digital library. The courses are hosted inside Kajabi for easy access.
This is not only strategy. It is not only spirituality. It is not only embodiment. It is a lineaged, trauma-informed, embodied initiation that integrates devotion, artistry, nervous system awareness, ritual, leadership, and sacred service. It is both mystical and substantial — and it is taught by someone who lives it, backed by 30+ years of practice and a four-generation spiritual lineage.
The Costa Rica Live Priestess Initiation takes place November 15–22, 2026 in Diamante Valley. This is the sacred heartbeat of the Ceremonialist Path — seven days of deep immersion, ceremony, and initiation in one of the most powerful landscapes on earth.
Three live calls per month held on Thursdays, 11-1 pm PT. Plus approximately two hours a week for pre-recorded content on Kajabi. The program is designed to be deep, not overwhelming — structured enough to hold you, spacious enough to let life move around it.
Live YoUr Yes
Here’s the thing…
You’ve been here before. Standing at the threshold. Feeling the pull. Knowing somewhere deep in your body that something is calling you forward, and yet the mind starts doing what minds do.
“Is this the right time?” “Can I really do this?” “What if I wait just a little longer…”
And so I want to ask you something.
What is the cost of staying where you are?
Not financially. Not strategically. But in your body. In your aliveness. In the visions you are still waiting to fully claim. In the dance journeys you haven’t yet led. In the ceremonies waiting to move through you. In the global sisterhood that is already gathering, without you in it yet.
What does another year of doing it alone actually cost you?
And then, can you feel what becomes possible when you surrender to the YES?
A life that is genuinely, completely, turned on. A lineage to stand on. A sisterhood to rise with. Your artistry as your ministry. Your leadership as your living prayer.
That is all on the other side of one yes.
Here’s what I know, love. The path doesn’t always make sense before you say yes. It rarely does. But your body knew something the moment you found this work. That recognition, that “oh, this is it” feeling, that is your inner compass speaking.
Trust the knowing of the yes. Even if you don’t know exactly how it will all make sense.
And if you’re not quite sure yet, begin with the application.
Let it be your first act of devotion. The questions will show you exactly where you are in relationship to different aspects of yourself and bring you into deeper clarity with your highest desire.
Sometimes the simple act of filling it in is what finally makes the yes land in your body.
Allow this application to be a mirror.
This is your moment. This is your expansion. And there is a global sisterhood of women who are ready to rise with you.
We are here. We are waiting. And we cannot wait to welcome you home.
This is an Intimate container.
Trust your inner knowing and let inspiration lead you to your greatest purpose.
