Event Details

Join Nancy Ava Miller for an intimate reading and reminiscence of the BDSM Scene of the 1980s and 1990s

PERVERT Documents (via paragraphs, poems, and pictures) the heart of the B&D/S&M netherworld as it existed for many in the 1980's and 90's—the desperation, the obsession, the passion, the gathering together of kinky souls in back alley clubs and support networks, the intimacy, the love …

Hypnotherapist, teacher of Transcendental Meditation, former educator and professional writer, Nancy Ava Miller, MEd, dwells in a remote mountain region of New Mexico where she meanders rugged hills with her dogs, meditates, and pens the occasional poem. Her articles and poetry have appeared in numerous publications, including the acclaimed anthology Some Women (Ed. Laura Antoniou, 1997).
     Sometimes labeled the Johnny Appleseed of S&M, Nancy once roamed the land creating S&M/fetish support groups. Today—still in the sex biz, as founder/owner of People Exchanging Power—she describes herself as the proud grandmother of a retired Navy man.

Nancy will teach two workshops on Saturday, April 2nd. This FREE reading/signing is an opportunity to meet and greet one of the pioneers of the pansexual BDSM movement.

Passion 101 Classes @ Sexploratorium



The mission of PASSION 101 Classes is to provide interactive, educational and entertaining learning experiences that enhance the abilities of individuals, couples and other intimately acquainted persons to understand sexual techniques, improve the dynamics of relationships/intimacy, practice useful methods of sexual communication, maintain and improve spiritual/physical/sexual health, and to develop and appreciation of diverse sexual expression through performance and creation of fine arts.

Since 1996, Passion 101 classes have been offered weekly at Fetishes Boutique, Aphrodite Gallery and now at Sexploratorium as well as at regional and national conventions.

Presentations can be scheduled at your community organization, private party or student club by appointment. Remote presentations require a minimum of two students, but private one-on-one consultations can be scheduled in the Aphrodite Gallery of Philadelphia.

Course topics can be tailored to meet the needs of students by request. Students are encouraged to provide feedback via surveys distributed during each class.

Current curricula focus on four major areas of sexuality:

  1. Anatomy/Physiology/ Sexual technique
  2. Relationships/ Psychology/Communication
  3. Psychosexual Fantasy/ Fetish/ BDSM technique
  4. Erotic Fine Arts /Performance/Exercise

Some individual classes that fall under these categories are offered for specific audiences: i.e. women only, couples only, men only, trans only etc.

Our presenters do not act as sexworkers or surrogates: We will coach you on techniques and strategies for a better sex life, but we won’t play the game for you or with you.

Check our upcoming course schedule of workshops scheduled at Sexploratorium and other locations in Philadelphia.
