Venusian Society Founders
Meet Madame Selana
MadameSelana is a rigger and kink educator since 2018. She is the founder and lead facilitator of the Venusian Society, where she directs the development and delivery of educational frameworks that position kink as both pedagogy and ritual practice.
Her teaching is characterized by a rigorous integration of somatic awareness, psychological insight, and ritual structure, treating erotic practice not as spontaneity alone but as a cultivated, intentional discipline. Within this framework, she emphasizes clarity of communication, ethical responsibility, and the deliberate navigation of power. Working from a queer and trauma-informed perspective, she examines desire and authority as forces that can be studied, embodied, and refined.
In addition to her leadership within the Venusian Society, she has contributed as a guest facilitator and content creator for Athens Pride, Coven Magick Market, Pragmatically Kinking, and related platforms.
