Dawn Cherie & Ohad Pele Ezrachi
Ohad Pele is a lead facilitator with ISTA and has been teaching Kabbalah, Sacred Sexuality and Conscious Relating internationally for more than 30 years.
Previously a traditional Kabbalist Rabbi in Jerusalem, academic scholar and community leader, Ohad is well known as one of the most influential and radical spiritual teachers in the field. Before joining ISTA, Ohad Pele headed “Neviah: the Hebraic Academy of Universal Spirit” in Tel Aviv. Together with Dawn he co-founded KabaLove, the school of Love in Kabbalah, in 2016.
Ohad is a prolific creator. He’s authored multiple books, and is an artist, photographer and song writer.
Dawn Cherie is a lead facilitator in ISTA, performer, dancer, singer, a Watsu’er and teacher of sacred love relationships. Her work is focused on enlivening women and men to live love at their great power, using methods of movement, ritual and theater.
Dawn has studied extensively across multiple modalities and wisdom paths including Five Rhythms, Priestessing with ALisa Starkweather, native Peruvain and Lakota teachings, David Deida, Marshal Rosenberg, Watsu, Pelvic Heart Integration, and Kohennet Hebrew Priestessing.
Dawn is the co-founder of KabaLove, the school of Love in Kabbalah (2016). She is also in love with her snake, a red tail Boa Constrictor named Kunda(lini) who accompanies her on her healing work. Dawn is the co-founder of SSSTaR — the Spiritual Sexual Shamanic Ritual and Theatre international group associated with ISTA.
In this course, we take you behind the scenes of our 18 year open relationship to share the practical lessons, wisdom and tools we’ve learned along the way. We’re still deeply in love after nearly two decades together and traversed a lot of relationship territory: painful pits and exquisite peaks and everything in between. We know our honest and vulnerable sharings will help you to avoid these same pits (or get out of them much faster) and expand in every moment of the journey.
As teachers of sacred relating and mysticism for over 30 years, Dawn and Pele share the emotional, spiritual, sexual, relational tools you need to elevate and deepen the quality of your relating. Because it’s not about what kind of relationship you’re in — single, monogamous or non-monogamous — it’s about the quality of your relating that matters.
With a unique blend of Shamanism, Kabbalah, Tantra, and science, combined with deep insights, clear communication, and practical tools, see what course explores below…

What people say...
“Ohad Pele and Dawn have a unique blend of shamanism, science and Tantra combined with deep insights and clear communication. Their teachings helped me find the sacred marriage of feminine and masculine in myself which has allowed me to finally enter into a healthy, fulfilling and ever-growing relationship with my partner. I’ve also become more aware of my needs and unhealthy patterns that keep me from achieving simple, everyday joy. I’m now able to notice beauty in the smallest incidents of life. Deep thanks and gratitude."
— Piotr Reisch, Poland
"I highly recommend Pele & Dawn’s Sacred Relating course. I’ve consulted with them about relating a number of times in the past years and always receive new perspectives, wisdom and practical tools. I appreciate the way Pele & Dawn have traveled through the different challenges of partnership and found love, depth and passion."
— Shachar Caspi, Founder of AOL and a lead faculty in ISTA
"The main insight I've had is to look inside myself and ask: "What do I need in this relationship? What will make it good for me?" and to create healthy boundaries according to that. I learned to put my own boundaries, and not in a way that limits the other. When I talked to my partner about my needs, every boundary I asked for was received as "easy". Since then, we have boundaries that can change according to our mutual consent."
— T.W., Pardes Hanna, Israel
“Anyone who seeks the truth will benefit from working with these two. I trust them with my heart and soul. If you’re on the fence about working with Ohad and Dawn, trust me, they’re worth every penny! Ria and I just got engaged. Their contribution to our relationship has made the biggest difference.”
— Kenny & Ria, San Diego
"Without Ohad and Dawn's guidance and support we wouldn't have made it through some very difficult times in our relationship. Their superpower is the practical elimination of drama and a powerful commitment to love. If you're on the fence of working with Ohad and Dawn, they're worth every penny and it's a total no-brainer. We are now ENGAGED and their contribution made the difference!"
— Ria Yoshida, Relationship Coach
