The pilot
Life Bar Arcade hosted our August 16, 2026 Sunday-morning pilot — the first ecstatic dance of its kind in the Schaumburg area. That morning is part of our story, and this page stays up for it. Our ongoing Sunday mornings are now in Palatine and Arlington Heights.
The room
Life Bar Arcade
A Schaumburg bar and vintage arcade that opened its floor for our first Sunday-morning dance in the area, on August 16, 2026. The Sunday series has since moved to the Himalayan Yoga and Meditation Center in Palatine.
Life Bar Arcade is a Schaumburg gathering space that opened its floor on a Sunday morning in August 2026 for the first ecstatic dance of its kind in the area.
Normally a bar and vintage arcade, the room became a private sober event for the morning — the bar stayed closed until after we finished.
Can't wait
