Sarah Sloane

Sarah Sloane hails from the Washington, DC, area, where she has been involved in the BDSM / Leather communities for over 11 years. For the last 9 years her focus has been on educating and facilitating learning opportunities for others in the community; her passions for personal authenticity, communication, and service have led her to teach classes ranging from BDSM techniques to personal growth topics to finding ways to enhance new (and ongoing) relationships.

While teaching, Sarah has built a solid reputation as a compassionate, funny, and knowledgeable educator with a commitment to ensuring that students are able to get the knowledge and understanding that they need in order to create the play, sex, and relationships that they crave.

Sarah is a writer and the Sex Education section editor for SexIs Magazine, as well as the Contributing Editor of Tristan Taormino’s newsletter, The Double T. Her writing was recently included in Lee Harrington’s book, Rope, Bondage and Power, and she is also currently gathering submissions for her own anthology, “BodyMindSpiritMagic”.  She has been honored as a nominee for the Pantheon of Leather’s Woman of the Year award for 2009, is the 1st Runner Up for International Ms Leather 2009, and is a past nominee for the Vaughan Keith National Educator award from Black Rose.

Sarah also works as a personal life coach and organizational assistant. You can learn more about her at her website, www.sarahsloane.net
