Wellness Social Club is set to revolutionise the city’s social scene with ASCENSION: The Ultimate Sober Sauna Rave. This ground-breaking gatho merges high-energy electronic music and primal sound journeys with the restorative benefits of hot and cold therapy, offering Melburnians a new frontier in conscious, vibrant, and hangover-free nightlife.
There is a shift happening right now around the world, soft clubbing is replacing beers and bars and kombucha is the new vodka-soda. Younger generations are seeking healthier, hangover-free experiences when going out.
ASCENSION is designed to provide a natural high through sound, movement, and recovery. We are building a community of like-minded individuals who want to express themselves in a judgment free zone whilst taking care of their mind, body and soul.
Attendees will step into a curated atmosphere where DJ Julie Jones delivers hypnotic rhythms and electronic pulses, complemented by the intimate, soul-awakening sound baths from Awarewolves, featuring primal didgeridoo and hoop drum vibrations. The event’s core concept blends connection with wellness:
- Guided Sauna Experience: Feeling the heat rise while swaying to sound baths.
- Invigorating Cold Plunges: For radiant recovery and an instant endorphin boost.
- Sober Socialising: Fuelling the night with non-alcoholic beers and kombucha for a clean energy buzz with no toxins and no comedown.
- A New Kind of Dancefloor: Loose, young and wild to forge genuine connections without inhibitions.
- Deep Connections: Igniting new beginnings with playful icebreakers.
“We are getting ahead of the trend so you can be the first to own it,” says a spokesperson for Wellness Social Club. “Athletes, parents who have the Saturday sport run and creatives are all lining up for this new experience, why not come be part of the movement?”
“We are inviting Melbournians to come experience a new type of sesh, one that will leave you feeling refreshed, recharged and buzzing with a natural high.”

About Awarewolves
Awarewolves connects breath, mind, physical and emotional body via frequency vibration and sound. This is achieved by following Awarewolves rhythms and vibration of the Yidaki (Didjeridoo) in combination with ancestral Hoop (Medicine) Drum played at specific tempos, rhythms and instruction. Accompanied by soothing vibrations of Native American flutes.
These sacred instruments weave a soundscape designed to gently release tension, quiet the mind, open one’s heart and more importantly.
