#healthysaratoga Silent Disco

The #healthysaratoga initiative will host a Silent Disco on Thursday, October 8th from 6 to 8 p.m. In an effort to bring the arts and tech sector together, we invite you out for a healthy, fun family activity!

Pass by any silent disco and you’ll notice some rather strange behavior; people are dancing wildly, smiling, and socializing–seemingly devoid of inhibitions. But there is no apparent music, and the silence in the room is only punctuated by the sounds of tapping feet, metronomic claps, and acappella excerpts of familiar pop hits.

If you don’t know what a silent disco is, don’t fret! Envision it. Participants are dancing passionately, truly living up to the old saying “dance like no one’s watching”. Guests are watching, living, breathing, absorbing a newly discovered psychological phenomenon…. but, everyone is wearing headphones and not one note of music is heard aloud.

The Silent Disco is open to the community. Cost is $5 per person or $10 for a family.
