Graydancer’s Bio
Graydancer Performing at Madison's Fire Ball 2009
Graydancer, Ninja Sex Poodle & Ronin of Love, comes from the venerable rope bondage tradition of Madison, WI, where he honed his craft to become the world premiere podcaster of rope bondage with “the Ropecast“. He is the author of three novels including Nawashi (which climbed to #1 on the Podiobooks.com charts) as well as numerous short stories and essays. Graydancer’s writing has been published in several anthologies edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel, Secret Magazine, Power Exchange Magazine, and most recently “Ropes, Bondage & Power” (edited by Lee Harrington).
A veteran of the stage, Graydancer has been a feature performer and M.C. for Madison’s hottest burlesque company, Foxy Veronica’s Peach Pies, as well as recently being asked to perform at Kink in the Caribbean. His GRUEs (a kink-oriented Open Space) have been held all over the U.S., Canada, and Europe. You can browse the images in the Graydancer Style gallery to see some of his work.
In 1998 Gray formed satorimedia, a company through which he professionally rigs, photographs, shoots, edits, and consults in web, video, and social media for several clients ranging from Kink.com to the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom to the Kink Academy. You can also hear Graydancer as a guest on various other popular podcasts such as Polyamory Weekly and Dart’s Domain. Currently he plies his trade as an itinerant Rope Artist, Kink Educator and Sex-Positive Activist, smiting the evil of sloppy ends wherever they may lie. He’s one of the easiest people to stalk on the web, with twitter, google, tumblr, or just at a kink event near you.

Hi Gray
I searched all over for an email address for you on here, but this is as close as I could find.
I wanted to check in about your interest in doing a podcast interview if applicable about my new Conscious Fetish Blog, my Conscious D/s-BDSM workshops see http://www.DakaDom.com or the innovative upgrades I made to the Tetruss…stronger, lighter, roomier …see http://www.Tetruss.com
I also note you are also using the suffusion theme…I am still figuring mine out…but I think it is a pretty cool theme…and you are really maxxing yours…in fact you are maxxing your life in all directions…how on earth do you juggle all this stuff….very impressive!
best regards

Hey Graydancer,
i have just a very small question. I found a youtube video today where you have bagged up a girl in a garbage bag and tied her with rop. You can find the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJQIXPekCxg
Do you have any more video material of this? It would be very nice!
Hope to get an email from you!
Best regards!
