Over dit evenement
THE HOUSE OF EROS - A Somatic Intimacy Club
Welcome to The House of Eros, an immersive erotic night where desire meets design & where Ghent’s vibrant, sex-positive nightlife finds a new, consciously held expression.
Set in a beautiful villa, this is not just a party.
It is a carefully curated erotic playground for curious, open-minded & pleasure-loving humans who want more than rushed encounters or disconnected sexuality.
Here, kink, play, sensuality & nightlife culture merge with presence, consent & emotional intelligence.
Not a swinger party. Not a tantric ritual. Not a standard club night.
The House of Eros is where conscious presence meets unapologetic pleasure.
What awaits you
This night unfolds in two distinct yet seamlessly flowing chapters:
✦ Curated Experiences — The First Half
As dusk falls, the villa opens into a landscape of designed erotic & embodied experiences.
Across multiple curated areas, you are invited to explore intimate, playful & provocative spaces - each with its own atmosphere, intention & rhythm.
You may find yourself in:
*an embodied flirtation or connection experiment
*a soft kink or power-play exploration
*a space devoted to touch, presence & somatic awareness
*or an erotic play laboratory where curiosity leads the way
*...
Each space is consciously held by experienced co-hosts - bodyworkers, facilitators & known faces from the field - who guide the container, support consent & create spaces where exploration feels safe, exciting & deeply considered.
You are free to wander, choose, pause, dive in - or simply observe.

Our Curated Spaces: The Three Spheres of Eros
No edition is ever repeated!
For every gathering, the three spheres are completely reimagined with new topics, new atmospheres & new expert facilitators.
Each space offers a distinct portal into erotic embodiment, intimacy, play & transformation - creating a fresh journey every single time.
Guided by our expert facilitators to upgrade your somatic capacity, expand your erotic bandwidth & prime your nervous system for the rest of the night.
In the Sphere of Connect & Play, hosted by Daphné Sarpyener, you will experience the ultimate slow-burn foreplay through conscious touch & authentic relating. This space invites you to drop your daily masks, teaching you how to feel profoundly more by doing less. By grounding your nervous system here, you establish a deep anchor of trust (& safety with your partner), making it beautifully safe to navigate the open flow of the party later. You take home the ability to shed performance anxiety, communicate your truest desires & cultivate an emotional intimacy that makes everyday sex deeply expansive & fulfilling.
The Playground of Polarity, hosted by Sanne, offers a space to explore the interplay between leading and surrender in a conscious and respectful way.
You are invited to engage at your own pace, experiment with boundaries, and practice expressing desires and limits with clarity. The focus is on curiosity, presence and mutual awareness.
This experience can offer subtle insights into patterns of connection and communication that may extend into everyday life.
In the Sphere of Alchemy, hosted by Fieke (Soulspot), you are invited into Intimacy Kung-Fu — a space to gently reconnect with your body and its natural intelligence.
Through simple, embodied practices, you can soften inner tension, deepen your sense of presence, and open to a more relaxed experience of aliveness and connection.
The tools you explore here can support you in meeting both pleasure and emotion with more calm, awareness, and resilience in daily life.
✦ Free Flow — The Second Half
As the night deepens, structure melts into freedom.
The villa transforms into a pulsating playground of sound, movement & unfolding erotic energy.
## A dancefloor with techno & house music comes alive.
## A bar with drinks invites you to linger, connect & refuel.
## open Spaces.
Here, you are invited to let go into the rhythm of the night - to dance, flirt, play, explore kink, connect & follow your desires with awareness & respect.
This is where Ghent’s night- & sex-positive scene meets in celebration: bold, elegant, curious, alive.
The Spirit of The House
The House of Eros was born from a longing to bridge a gap:
Between sexual spaces that feel flat or rushed & conscious spaces that avoid the erotic.
This is a night for those who want both:
- erotic aliveness & emotional intelligence
- freedom & consent
- depth & pleasure
- wildness & care
We celebrate:
+ curiosity over performance
+ presence over encouragement
+ exploration over expectation
##This is a space for grown-ups who love pleasure - & who know that true eroticism thrives where safety, respect & beauty meet.##
House of Eros is about deep connection, shared responsibility & bringing together different kind of interests & people from different areas - to learn from each other... to create a high-vibe .. to
expand your erotic bandwidth.
A safe & energetically balanced container - One House - One Vibe - Pure Connection.

She started her research on intimacy around the time of covid, looking for a different way of being together. On her path, she discovered authentic relating - a space to create heart to heart connections, away from daily masks, in touch with our true self. Then came, feelings work & shadow work -working on the courage that’s needed to make those extra steps & maintain them on a daily basis.
She’s been an intimacy activist for the past 8 years - experimenting with sex positive spaces, relational anarchy, conscious touch & consent games, rage club & fear club & a wide set of communication tools.

*Sanne Bostyn is an intimacy coach for men & an erotic bodyworker for women. Through over a decade of direct, hands-on experience, he has developed a rare understanding of how women truly experience desire, arousal, & connection.
He translates that experience into practical guidance for men, teaching them how to embody presence, create polarity, & lead intimacy in a way that evokes genuine attraction.
His work bridges the gap between theory & lived experience, shaped by years of training in bodywork, intimacy, & conscious sexuality.

*Fieke - Soulspot
Fieke Vanhauwaert is an embodied facilitator & founder of Soulspot. She creates spaces where women come back into their bodies, meet their truth & reconnect with the aliveness they’ve learned to suppress. Her work is not about fixing, but about remembering & staying with what is real, even when it’s uncomfortable, unfamiliar, or alive. Through body awareness, opening for innate magic & direct experience, she guides women out of overthinking & control & back into something more instinctive, honest & awake. Her work doesn’t give you answers. It wakes something up. And once you feel it, you can’t go back to sleep.
