No Lights No Lycra Wangaratta

Published on 23 September 2024

When the lights turn off the and the music turns on, something magical happens. You are are able able to let go of inhibitions, shift moods, and sweat it out like never before – all while staying completely sober.

No Lights No Lycra is a mix of everyone – mums, dads, students, lawyers, baristas – ranging in age from 12 to 100. But in the dark, everyone comes alive, you can shake off the blues, and lose yourself in the rhythm.

I get it, it might sound a little strange, and trust me, we’ve heard that before. But since 2009, over 500,000 people have come together at No Lights No Lycra to find their groove.

With numbers like that, it can’t be that weird, right?

What started as a small gathering in Melbourne has grown into a global movement because, honestly, joy is contagious, and people just love to dance.

At WSAC we are so grateful to be able to help create joy in so many!

Try it for yourself! 

Fridays 6:30pm
