Sober Clubbing in the morning, a trend for the health conscious
The sober clubbing movement is one that breathes new light into a scene and culture that is dramatically rooted in dark rooms filled with drunk and high people who are looking to escape reality for a few hours.
Sober clubbing might come across as a pretentious and righteous trend but it offers you the opportunity to make smarter lifestyle choices.
At one sober clubbing event in Brooklyn, New York you get there at 6 AM and instead of a double-vodka, you are served either a shot of chilled espresso or a raw juice.
This is where it might get a little lame though… a yoga instructor shares inspirational quotes over a mic along with a few yoga positions.
If you are looking to clean up your dirty night partying act then a few mornings of sober clubbing could help with the guilt and make you feel like you’re a responsible adult.
Unlike your regular morning workout, the fact that you are calling what you’re doing sober clubbing adds to the festive energy.
The idea that everyone is out to have a party also catches on.
“Some people climb up on the stage and surround the DJ. Others form loose groups, laughing and grooving with one another, cheering each other’s dance moves on. Strangers introduce themselves and wave in new friends, while others prefer to dance solo and bust wild moves.”
The owner of Daybreaker in Brooklyn, New York hosts events such as this every Wednesday morning for two years, and it is consistently sold out.
“We want to take out all the bad stuff associated with clubbing: the drinking and self-destructive behavior and mean bouncers, and just bring people together. There’s no guilt whatsoever here. You can tell your grandmother about Daybreaker.” Said Matthew Brimer, Owner of Daybreaker
Sober clubbing bars are also a part of this wave where mocktails take center stage and breathalyzer test are administered before anyone being allowed entry. This clubbing trend also serves the groups of individuals who are in recovery for alcohol and drug addiction, allowing them the chance to party without compromising their newer clean lives.
