Spaces to practise being human, together.

Most of us are longing for something.
To feel more alive. Less alone. More connected.
For rich and meaningful relationships.
To be seen and accepted exactly as we are.

This work is for humans who want to live fully, love bravely and relate deeply.

Hi, I’m Karis Mae

Karis Mae

I’m an authenticity advocate, connection nerd and self-confessed cuddle queen.

I’m here for connection. The kind that starts with being real with ourselves and unfolds in how we relate to others.

I create spaces for intimacy, self-expression and belonging, where we can be real, messy, tender and courageous, together. My work centres on connection in all its forms: with yourself, with others, with community and with life.

I’m trauma informed and consent trained, but what I bring most of all is a warm, grounded presence, and a practical no-nonsense approach that supports people to feel safe enough to go deep.

Through group workshops, online courses and sessions, I invite you into deeper relationship — with your body, your truth, your desires, your boundaries and the people around you.

The quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives

Relational Arts

This week-long retreat is an invitation to explore and deepen your capacity for authentic connection.

Together, we’ll create a ‘relational laboratory’ where you can practise connection skills that will serve you for life. By slowing down, connecting to your body and opening your heart, we’ll explore the threads that weave together the space where intimacy can be felt and shared.

This is a part workshop, part holiday, part community experience at Kalikalos community, located in the natural paradise of Greece’s Pelion Peninsula.

Kalikalos is nestled in a wild chestnut forest, offering simplicity in nature. The centre is surrounded by magnificent nature and just a short drive from beaches with crystal turquoise waters.

What’s it all about?

Karis Mae

Connection with self

Learn to listen inwardly, honour your truth and befriend all parts of yourself — body, emotions, shadows, desires and boundaries.

This is your ‘first intimacy’, the foundation for showing up more fully and feeling more alive in your life.

Connection with others

Explore authentic communication, deep listening, conscious touch and relational presence, all rooted in attunement and consent.

We practise the art of being with another while staying true to ourselves.

Connection in community

Be witnessed, supported and met in group spaces where healing happens together.

The group becomes a mirror, a container and a catalyst for transformation.

What people say...

I have done a lot of therapy in different forms but not like this. I had a chance to expose the most vulnerable parts of myself and let them be heard, seen and felt by others. I felt free in my expression among others in a deep and powerful way. I felt held by you through the whole experience.

What people say...

The workshop was fantastic experience that I’m truly grateful for. The exercises helped me delve into my relationship with myself and broaden my connections with others. I highly recommend this work to anyone seeking a personal journey into connection and belonging.

What people say...

I still feel the sweetness in my body after the workshop. It was healing to be with others in this way and sharing this longing for closeness, removing the shame and realising I’m not alone in it. I am so grateful to myself for being able to take part and receive these gifts of touch and connection. I invite more of this into my life!

What people say...

I appreciated the clarity of the explanations and the slowness, gentleness and attuned nature of the practices you offered. Being neurodiverse, I often find connection workshops too intrusive, too intense or too fast, and I felt relief that the space you designed made it easy for me to honour my nervous system. This is beautiful, important work, very needed, and it is already affecting my choices.
