No Lights No Lycra Is Hosting An Anti-Valentine's Day Dance Party

First, they realised that folks liked to strut their stuff on the dance floor in their own way — free from judging eyes, glaring sources of illumination, restrictive outfits and the need to learn specific steps. It was a stroke of genius that's all there in the name, so it should come as no surprise that No Lights No Lycra have hit the jackpot with their next idea. Now, knowing that there's more to the season of roses and chocolates than the usual romantic gestures, they're throwing an anti-Valentine's Day dance party.

Taking over the  Paddington Uniting Church Hall from 7.30pm to 8.30pm on February 14, Feelin' Myself — The Anti V-Day Party is a space for everyone to come together and show their love through movement. Just what kind of affection you're expressing and celebrating as you listen to a mix of breakup and better-off-alone tunes, well, that's up to you.

If you're attached, you can both hit the floor and avoid all of the usual Valentine's Day cliches — sure, you'll have to nab a ticket in advance, but there's no fancy outfits, worrying about a restaurant booking, trying to snag the best picnic spot or the like. If you're solo, you can groove with your gang of friends or bust a move alone, free from the usual romance overload.

No Lights No Lycra's Feelin' Myself — The Anti V-Day Party takes place at the Paddington Uniting Church Hall from 7.30pm to 8.30pm on February 14. For more information, visit the event Facebook page. Tickets cost $12, and are available online now.
