Chocolate Groove - Winter Solstice WHITE OUT Ecstatic Dance Party

December 20th marks the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere — the shortest day and longest night of the year. It is the moment that closes the fall season and ushers in winter, reminding us that from this point forward, the light slowly begins its return.

For many cultures, the Winter Solstice is honored as the Earth’s natural New Year — a powerful time to pause, reflect, and gather in ceremony. A moment to come together in community, raise our vibration, and celebrate the rebirth of light through movement, music, and connection.

Join us for our 7th Annual Winter Solstice Celebration!

✨ What is a WHITE OUT PARTY? ✨

For this special night, we invite you to dress all in white as we illuminate the space with black lights, creating a glowing, high-vibration dance floor. Your whites will shine as you bring your magic, your expression, and your presence into the room.

We’re excited to lean into this potent seasonal energy and offer another Saturday night, alcohol-free gathering for our community — a space to get down, get wild, open our hearts, and move freely together on the dance floor.

Get ready for an all-night journey guided by a beautiful lineup of facilitators, DJs, and artists, as we transform the magical Jessica Gorlicky Studio into a glowing sanctuary of sound, movement, and connection.

✨ The night is long. The light is returning. Let’s dance it in together. ✨

As a staple “Sober Celebration” event in Toronto, we bring a wellness-focused, retreat-style experience to the nightlife scene.
Since our first alcohol-free dance gathering in 2018, we’ve continued to evolve—holding space for both Ecstatic Dance and meaningful social connection.

At our core, we are more than just a dance party—we are a community.
A space for authentic connection, expression, and celebration where everyone is welcome.
