💃 The Joy Parade – Dance Walks to Uplift Asheville

Ready to make friends, move your body, and spread joy around Asheville? We’re The Joy Parade—a weekly movement party bringing people together to dance, connect, and create ripple effects of love and fun through our community. Think: Flash mob vibes. Feel-good music. Strangers becoming friends. Joy gone viral. Whether you're a born dancer or just love the idea of play, you're welcome here. This is about expression, not perfection. We believe joy is medicine—and when we share it, it multiplies. That’s the magic.
