Step into THRESHOLD — New Year’s Eve 2025, Sol Dance’s annual crossing between worlds. On this night, we gather in the heart of Sinclair Atlanta to honor the closing breath of 2025 and welcome the first pulse of 2026 — feet on the earth, hearts open, bodies awake. This is the last dance of the year, and the first dance of what comes next.
New Year’s Eve at Sol Dance is a ritual. A slow unfurling. A moment to release what’s behind us, name what we’re stepping into, and meet the turning of time with intention, movement, and community. We return this year with THRESHOLD, the name that has always captured what this night truly is:
a doorway, a crossing, a choosing.
We open the evening with a Cacao Ceremony led by Christina Della Iacono, inviting the room into warmth, connection, and collective presence. Cacao has long been used as a heart-opening ritual, softening the inner landscape so that what moves through the body becomes clean, honest, and aligned.
From there we drop into the dance:
Ralo makes his Sol Dance debut, curatinga potent 1.5-hour ecstatic wave — a deep, textured, electrically alive journey to prepare the field for the year’s final release.
As midnight approaches, Maya Lemberg will guide our countdown ritual, weaving intention, breath, and collective focus as we cross into 2026 together. Expect a grounded moment, an embodied marking of the turning point — a shared breath to honor both the letting go and the becoming.
Immediately after the ritual, we ignite the room with a live drum-circle dance interlude, lifting the energy from inward reverence into communal celebration.
Finally, Scott Houston carries us into the first dance of the new year with an extended Ecstatic Dance DJ set — expansive, deep, joy-forward, and designed to set the tone for the season ahead. The night will close with a soft landing, integrating the journey and welcoming the new cycle with clarity.
Additional details — vendors, artists, collaborators, and evening elements — will be announced soon.

Why This Night Matters
New Year’s Eve can easily become loud, chaotic, or numbing — but not here.
At Sol Dance, we mark this turning with presence, reverence, movement, and community. THRESHOLD is a chance to dance the year clean, to set your foundation for what’s ahead, and to cross into 2026 surrounded by aligned, heart-forward humans.
Together, we’ll honor what has been, celebrate what is unfolding, and step forward with rooted feet, bright hearts, and clear intention.

WHAT WE DO:
Sol Dance is a free-form movement experience where all bodies are welcomed. We offer a gently guided sensory journey meant to be experienced in its entirety. The music is meticulously curated by Sol Dance Resident DJ & Co-Founder – Scott Houston – alongside talented guest DJs, percussionists & sound healers. You can expect a culturally-diverse blend of electronic and acoustic sounds, skillfully attuned to the energy of the group. Beginning with an opening meditation and moving into deeper, slower sounds, the bpm & energy peak in the middle, and are finally brought back down, closing with meditative sound healing and a gratitude circle. We invite you to gift yourself the complete experience from start to finish
