Clo Dubois is a BDSM educator, writer, documentarian, ritualist, and personal trainer in
the kinky arts.
Dubois founded the Academy of SM Arts in 1995 in response to the growing need for a safe
place to learn and explore BDSM from an experienced professional as many
misconceptions and misinformation were being spread around. In 2000, Dubois, produced a
docu-film on erotic energy exchange in the dungeon. In 2002, The Pain Game received an
Award form the Society for the scientific Study of Sexuality - Western region.

In 2002, Dubois started leading erotic dominance intensives for women, with her partner
Sybil Holiday. This workshop was designed to help those with some BDSM experience to
increase their skills, gain confidence and expand their range of choices within a scene. Two
years later she added a workshop for men.
Currently she teaches three different intensives for men, women, and professionals with her
co-teachers, Eve Minax and Selina Raven, as well as guest faculty from the community,
including JD of the Two Knotty Boys.
Dubois is a lecturer at the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality, an invited
speaker at San Francisco State University, the University of California and One Taste SF,
where she is an affiliate teacher. This year she will present at IMsL in San Francisco and
East coast conference Floating World.
As a body ritual enthusiast, along with her life partner, Fakir Musafar, she conducts Spirit +
Flesh shamanic ritual/workshops. She describes it as "a personal dance of ecstatic fire".
