She grew up in Germany, competed as a figure skater, and now she's teaching Cuban salsa on a small island in Canada. Meet Victoria, the founder of Salsa con Victoria and the woman who's making Cuban dance accessible to everyone.

In this episode of The Sanctuary, Victoria opens up about her journey: from the rigorous discipline of competitive figure skating to the joy of reconnecting with her Peruvian roots through salsa. She explains why she started teaching after her Cuban partner refused to, and how she's built a thriving community of dancers, including absolute beginners who never thought they could learn.

Victoria also shares the thrill of having Cubans attend her class and give their stamp of approval, proving that her teaching is authentic to the culture. Plus, she breaks down what makes Cuban salsa (Casino) different from other styles: the circular movement, the walking-based footwork, and its rich history in Havana's social clubs.

Whether you're a dancer or just curious about Latin culture, this episode will make you want to move.

Victoria is a former competitive figure skater now turned salsa dancer & instructor based in Charlottetown, PEI. Exposed to Latin and Cuban music from a young age through her Peruvian father, salsa & Cuban dancing came much later for her, with her salsa journey beginning in 2023.

Ever since then, her newfound passion for this dance has inspired her to share the joy of Latin dance & culture across PEI through teaching, performing and organising events!

What does it really mean to love more than one person at a time with everyone's knowledge and consent? How do you build relationships that are intentional instead of default? And what's the difference between a boundary, an agreement, and a rule?

In this episode of The Sanctuary, Heidi, a therapist, polyamory coach, and the voice behind Steady Polyamory, shares her personal journey into polyamory, which began in a marriage that wasn't working and evolved into a relationship structure she's maintained for over a decade. She opens up about why she loves polyamory beyond the obvious benefits, including the freedom to let relationships unfold authentically and the joy of cheering on a partner's new connection.

Heidi breaks down essential frameworks for healthy relationships: regular check-ins, reducing defensiveness in tough conversations, and the empowering distinction between boundaries (decided within yourself) and agreements (mutually created with buy-in). She also tackles the controversial topic of hierarchy, offering a nuanced take on why pretending it doesn't exist is more harmful than acknowledging it.

Whether you're poly-curious, already practising, or just fascinated by the psychology of relationships, this episode offers a masterclass in communication, consent, and intentional love.

Heidi is a therapist and polyamory coach. Over the past decade she has helped hundreds of people gain clarity and ease in their non-monogamy journey.

She helps her clients navigate anxiety, jealousy, and tricky communication so that they can show up with more confidence and ease in their relationships.

What happens when two friends in Berlin decide to turn their love for electronic music into a full-fledged production duo? Meet Theatrophone, Nico and Jonathan, the creative minds behind some of the most exciting remixes coming out of Germany right now.

In this episode of The Sanctuary, Theatrophone talks about their musical journey: from Nico's late introduction to guitar and Jonathan's childhood piano lessons to their first EP and the moment they realised their music was resonating with people beyond just their friends. They break down their creative process, from starting with a melody to building the drop first, and share why emotion is the non-negotiable ingredient in every track they make.

A raw and unfiltered conversation with Sarah, a bodybuilder, competitor, and self-described sexual explorer who lives life fully on her own terms.

She breaks down her journey into bodybuilding, starting competitively at 50, cutting 40 pounds in under six months, and navigating the discipline, intensity, and structure of prep life. From training routines to stage presence, she shares what it takes to compete and stay consistent.

The conversation also moves into her personal life, where she opens up about her stag/vixen marriage, sexual autonomy, and how she found a dynamic that works for her. She speaks candidly about discovering her sexuality early, embracing it without shame, and building confidence in a space where judgment is constant.

Sarah also talks about car dogging, what it is, how she got into it, the boundaries she sets, and the realities behind it. She shares practical insights, safety considerations, and the mindset needed to navigate that world.

At its core, this episode is about ownership. Owning your body, your desires, your discipline, and your identity without apology.

Goddess Venyx shares how she got her start in BDSM, why she's drawn to the psychology of dominance and submission, and what it's like to hold space for clients who have been denied their authentic selves for years. She breaks down the difference between kink and fetish, explains why tributes are about more than money, and opens up about her own ADHD and why neurodivergent folks often find a home in the kink community.

This episode also offers a masterclass in consent: what it looks like in practice, how it changes depending on the activity (rope vs. hypno vs. medical play), and why even experienced practitioners need to keep learning.

Tune in for a candid, compassionate conversation about power, vulnerability, and the freedom of being truly seen.

Steve Holt received his first JUNO nomination back in 1984 for The Lion’s Eyes in the Jazz Album of the Year category, and launched an international career performing with artists such as Archie Shepp, Eddie Henderson, Larry Coryell and James Moody.

But like many jazz musicians, Holt’s recording career eventually slipped out of the spotlight. His last album appeared in 2002, and for more than two decades he released nothing new. To many listeners, he had simply faded from view.

Now, at age 71, Holt has come roaring back with a new album of original music titled Impact — and it has brought him full circle with a 2026 JUNO nomination.

The record features a powerhouse quintet of some of Canada’s top jazz players and a set of fresh compositions that reflect the long arc of a life spent in jazz. One moment that has already drawn attention is Holt’s improvised solo piano interpretation of O Canada. Writing in The Aquarian, critic Mike Greenblatt said that "...what Holt does with the anthem is akin to what Hendrix did to the Star-Spangled Banner at Woodstock.”

It’s an unusual story in Canadian music — a musician still creating vital work after half a century in the art form and receiving a JUNO nomination more than forty years after his first.
