presented x The Village Co-Op & Squadstyle

expansive & alcohol-free nights with community

The Elevator Lounge is a new 3-hour monthly event at Squadstyle in Frederick, brought to you by The Village Co-Op, Squadstyle, & an array of local, creative wellness vendors.

Elevate your weekend hang, Uplevel your date night, & Find your Village at the New Frederick Night Spot.

OUR FLOW

We begin with an intention-setting circle, where all are welcome to share and receive witnessing as we weave community skills together.

This is followed by an expansive group experience as our Elevator “goes up” together. This could be some facilitated movement, creativity, or community-building activity led by a local vendor.

In the peak middle, it’s choose your own adventure. Join us on the dance floor for ecstatic dance (a judgment-free, communal dance practice that brings you to a state of heightened awareness) as DJs or sound artists set the vibe.

Or, if it’s more your speed, use this time to visit the sauna, collaborate with another lounger, or try out one of the many solo stations set up around the space for reflection. Because sometimes the journey is communal, and sometimes it’s inward.

Afterwards, we reconvene for a grounding group experience as our Elevator “comes back down” together. Again, this could look like anything you can imagine - yin yoga, meditation, or a tea ceremony - led by a local vendor.

Finally, we will close with an integration circle, where you can share out with the group what you’re taking away from the night as we continue to deepen this Village.
