Morning Gloryville Brighton
Brightonians swap the after work night-out for pre‐work sober Morning Rave
On Thursday 16th September Morning Gloryville Brighton returns with Rave Your Way into the Day Episode 5. Morning Gloryville invites Brightonians to rave their way into the dawn with a ‘Day of the Dead’ celebration wild enough to wake the Toltecs.
After four months of early rising dance floor action October’s event has a lot to live up to. With the likes of Andy Barlow (playing one of his last gigs before touring the new Lamb album), Zoe Hardman from Hedkandi Radio and, putting a little funk into the mix, Dumani Ncube from Brighton’s own Soul Casserole, this event is set to take things to the next level.
The events in Brighton so far have averaged around 300 Brightonians swapping the usual morning routine for the dance floor, free hugs, free massages, yoga and healthy breakfast smoothies. Morning Gloryville is the trailblazer in conscious clubbing and socializing, providing a unique alternative to either the night clubor the gym. It is a whole hearted movement that challenges societal norms, turns clubbing on it’s head and, in so doing, gives people a healthy and sustainable means of expression.
On arrival attendees—who are named ‘citizens’— will be welcomed by Morning Gloryville ‘Wake Up Angels’ offering free massages, alongside fresh smoothie and coffee bars, a line-‐up of world class DJs, a motivational dance team, and a pumping dance floor. There will also be yoga teachers leading small group classes that attendees can dip into at their will. ‘Dress to sweat’ is the general dress code, but anything goes. Color and fun festival gear is encouraged. The only rules are sobriety and authenticity.
The first of its kind Morning Gloryville concept was introduced to London in May last year and took the city by storm. The monthly morning event in London now attracts more than 800 attendees, has an online following of twelve thousand, and has been featured extensively in UK and international press.
“Our primary aim in creating these events is to infuse connectivity, energy and wellbeing into the city”, says founder Samantha Moyo. “Besides being a vigorous workout, Morning Gloryville offers city dwellers from all backgrounds, ages and professions a fun healthy way to relax their minds and shake off their inhibitions. The overwhelming response from our attendees is that the positive energizing experience leads them to be more enthusiastic, productive and empowered at work. Go to an interview after Morning Gloryville and you will get the job.”
Morning Gloryville will not just become the new Brighton trend for 2014, it has now taken root in fourteen cities around the world and will expand into a global social movement characterized by mindful
living: With urbanization on the rise and culture becoming increasingly tech-saturated, there is a growing desire to experience life in a more conscious and mindful way.
