LOS ANGELES—The "Elevate and Dommenate" podcast recently covered LA Pride and interviewed Mistress Cyan and Mistress Mia Darque at the Erotic City side of the event.
Erotic City is the adults-only side of LA Pride, offering guests the opportunity to explore their kinky side with demonstrations and performances. Cyan hosts Erotic City and Cyan's staff from Sanctuary often volunteer. Included are special guests from Bullet Bar, Fitpup Leather, Whipping Stripes, The Leather Journal, The Sidewalk Project, The LA Pony and Critter Club, and Torture Garden LA.
Hosted by Goddess Aroya and Mistress Odessa, the "Elevate and Dommenate" podcast is the go-to podcast for all things BDSM, power dynamics, and professional domination. The hostesses explore the connection between physical fitness and sensual pleasure, helping listeners tap into their inner dominance and find confidence in both body and mind.
Aroya said, "We are so excited to have this interview. We want to share with the community… This is an amazing event here. You have Erotic City, where those 18 and up can be themselves."
Cyan noted, "With Erotic City, I came on board with LA Pride back in 2006. There was debate of whether to keep such an edgy, kink, fetish, BDSM section in there, but my feeling has always been you can't complain if you don't take a seat at the table. So I got on the board, and have been working really hard over the years to keep this not only existing but also growing."
Aroya and Odessa discussed the performance by Megan Thee Stallion the previous evening at LA Pride, then got personal and professional with Darque.
Darque explained, "There are a lot of misconceptions that every Dominatrix is a cruel, mentally destabilizing, bitch… She has to be covered in tattoos. She can only be 5'6" and she has to have the Betty Page look to her. I've rage quit against all that shit. I've given more through professional domination sessions than I have ever been angry in a lifestyle session. My last client came all the way from Switzerland so that we could wrestle! He likes to be bear-hugged and dropped to the ground. The fact that I can do that in six-inch platform heels, he absolutely adores!"
