About your instructor: Luna has been an educator in the kink community for the past 10 years. Their love and dedication for the kink community has been the driving force for them to pursue educating people on such topics in a loving and accepting way. Originally from Atlanta, GA, Luna got their start working with their local dungeon as a dungeon monitor at the age of 18. They dove into taking every class they possibly could to learn all they could from their elders in the community. From there, they began a mentorship under a local Domme, and absorbed as much information from their surrounding kinksters, while pursuing an education and doing independent research on their own time. Eventually, Luna was able to assist in teaching classes with her Domme, introducing people to the kink community and lifestyle. After a few years of assisting, Luna was given the opportunity to teach their first class as the leading voice. Since then, their passion for kink education has only grown and flourished with the help of the community and their partners. Now, Luna resides in the Denver area and, after the pandemic, has partnered with The Sexploratorium to continue their work in kink education in a new city.
