About Us
SuspenDC is put on by the following organizers:
Sacred Mark (SMS)
The Sacred Mark Sanctuary (SMS) is an interfaith sanctuary and Maryland 501(c)3. SMS promotes and explores the interconnectedness between mind, body, and spirit, focusing on the use of the body to access Spirit - particularly through the practices of body modification. You can visit their web site at http://sacredmarks.com/index.html.
The Crucible
The Crucible is Washington DC’s largest and best equipped public dungeon. The club’s ceiling winch allows for plenty of lift for high flying. Play stations throughout the space give ample public and private space for BDSM play. The Crucible is at 1816 Half Street SW, in Washington DC. For more info, visit the Crucible web site.
Kindlers
Kindlers of the Sacred Rhythm (Kindlers) is a group of pagans following the path of Ordeal.
Kindlers formed as a place for kinky Pagans to explore the intersection of Magikal and BDSM Play. We are drawn to explore the energy of extremes through ritual and trance. Walking in the footsteps of our ancestors, we make our own path. Using the container of Magikal space, we choose to face challenges, fears and extremes to look inside ourselves and cast light on our shadow.
For more info, contact Whittney Matlock or visit the kindlers web site.
