In 2016, three Melbourne based friends started a club to try new things.
We tried laughter yoga, salsa dancing and tai chi before moving on to more sparkly things in life.
In 2024, we decided to start it back up again. And this time - we invited…everyone.
In doing so, we sparked a movement. A movement focused on meeting new people. On reconnecting with community. In person.
From bike raves to burlesque, we’re on a mission to build an inclusive and welcoming community to try new things, together.
In the past year we’ve grown from a group of two to a community of 28,000.
We’re community focused. We’re creative. And we’re on a mission to connect people.
Free community picnics || Run clubs || Active pursuits || Pop-up dating || Creative collaborations || Lemonade stands in the park || AFLW matches || Theatre shows || Burlesque || Dragonboating ||
We’re working hard to make trying new things inclusive, accessible and available.
We’ve now got clubs in Melbourne, Sydney & London.
And of course, you’re invited.
