Temple by the Water is a sacred space in the Bywater neighborhood of New Orleans. We have created a rare and thriving community built on the foundations of self study, 1:1 mentoring & group classes in wellness, tantric learning, live music, movement, meditation, community events and play.

We are dedicated to creating community, pursuing bliss and enriching all comers.

Come grow with us,

Lara and Michael Blackin
