About this project

Get Your Dance On is based in connecting people through movement, music, and world-changing ideas. We feature the very best local DJs, musicians, yoga teachers, healers, artists, and performers, and local sponsors provide high vibe treats like raw chocolate, kombucha, turmeric elixirs, and fresh fruit.

October 16th we'll join forces with Catchafire.org and Dance Parade to take over YogaWorks Soho's gorgeous duplex space, complete with three huge rooms, hardwood floors perfect for barefoot grooving, saunas, and showers for when you're all danced out, and create an opportunity for NYC's finest humans to revel in their collective awesomeness and have a freakin blast. DJ Barney Iller will man the wheels of steel as Brooklyn's Brian T Carter facilitates the beat in our live room to keep things inspired, and the Didge Project will hold down the chill space with didgeridoos, singing bowls, and an acupuncturist on-site doing community-style treatments.

Funds raised will cover event costs (music, sound, artists, production), and all funds raised above the cost of the event will be donated directly to Dance Parade (danceparade.org), which showcases and empowers NYC's diverse dance culture through funding, networking, and bringing movement to the masses.
