you’re invited
The club began in 2017 when three of us decided we wanted to try new things across Melbourne / Naarm as a way of having more spontaneity in our everyday lives. We tried salsa dancing, tai chi and laughter yoga before getting distracted and moving along to the other, more sparkly, things in life.
In 2023, we started it back up again. This time, we invited others to come along too.
This time, it exploded in popularity. We’ve now hosted over 50 events, been featured by most major media outlets and have an audience of ~85,000+ people.
More importantly, we’ve been able to connect thousands of people with new friends, new groups and helped each other get out of our comfort zones.
All the while, more than 60% of our events have been free. (Some of this thanks to the generosity of our partners).
