Mistress Cyan’s dungeon sits in an industrial pocket in South L.A., and her clients range from local cops to couples who swear BDSM saved their marriage.

Mistress Cyan has been blessing Los Angeles with her presence for all 72 years of her life. She has been a professional dominatrix for 32 of them.

Sanctuary, her dungeon, sits in an industrial pocket of South L.A., alongside the railroad tracks near Willowbrook and Gardena.

I had been trying to get a hold of Mistress Cyan for a few weeks through email and DMs on Instagram when I finally got the guts to simply call the dungeon's front office. Who knew it could be so simple?
