About
Us
Welcome to Strut The Yard—where we’re all about joy, mischief, and dancing like nobody’s watching (even if they totally are). Strut The Yard started as a spark of inspiration, born out of the streets of New York City, where a silent disco community called What The Float showed me how magical it is to reclaim public spaces through music, movement, and unapologetic fun. It’s this experience of pure, uninhibited joy that I knew had to be shared when I moved to the Triangle, and so Strut The Yard was born.
But here’s the thing—this isn’t your average silent disco. Sure, we’ve got the glowing headphones, but at its core, Strut The Yard is about much more than just a good time. We exist to create brave, inclusive spaces where Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (QTBIPOC) can dance, express themselves, and claim joy as an act of resistance. We’re here to make sure that our joy and visibility take up space in ways that honor our roots and uplift our communities.
At Strut the Yard, we are deeply committed to honoring the connection between dance, music, and the earth—just as our ancestors have done for thousands of years. Through movement, we reconnect with the roots beneath the concrete and the trees and stars above, grounding ourselves in the rhythms that have guided us across generations. And we’re not just here to party—10% of our profits go straight back into mutual aid initiatives supporting QTBIPOC people in the Triangle. So when you strut with us, you’re not only filling the streets with joy but also making sure that joy ripples outward into real, tangible support for our community.
At Strut The Yard, we believe that dancing under the stars, through alleyways, and across parks is more than just fun—it’s liberation in action. It’s taking the streets, filling them with our energy, and turning everyday places into memories of celebration and connection. And yeah, sometimes that means a bit of cheeky rebellion—whether that’s dancing around a car wash or turning an ordinary sidewalk into our personal runway.
So grab those headphones, turn up the volume if you like. This is your permission slip to let go.
