Alternative clubbing: More yoga dance parties come to New York
The yoga studio-as-nightclub scene is kicking into high gear in New York this month, with two new dance parties with DJs, dub-step, and drinks sans the booze.
On March 24, Ecstactic Dance NYC ($20 at the door), a “conscious dance movement” that originated in Oakland, California, will debut at Jivamukti with DJ Small Change and drinks and snacks from Jivamuktea Café.
“No shoes and no chit-chat on the dance floor helps us keep it intentional and all about dance,” the event advertises.
Then, on March 29, the scene will welcome an even bigger event: Yoga Rave NYC at Pacha ($22.50).
Instead of dub-step and glow sticks (actually, you might see some of those), you’ll find a mocktail-heavy “happier hour,” a live Bhakti Band-accompanied yoga class, and a two-man Argentinian band that “combines mantras, electronic music, rock, and pop.”
What’s next? Celebs sipping kombucha and dancing barefoot at Greenhouse? Hey, anything is possible.
Yes, would love to see yoga parties come to lex ky.
