Event Description
Come dance your pants off for a good cause!
Youth Unleashing Power is Canada’s first and only national symposium created by and for HIV / HCV positive youth. All funds raised from this event support travel costs for positive youth to attend the symposium. Over the past three years, #PODO has donated over $5000 to YUP!!
There is currently no symposium planned for 2019, but we at the PLUR collective are committed to raising funds for peer-led initiatives for HIV+ youth, we will either hold the donations for YUP2020 or donate to a similar initiative. For more information regarding the current status of the symposium, please visit the YUP website, or speak with Sarah directly

PANTS OFF DANCE OFF is a body+ queer friendly event, and is inspired by and in homage to the No Pants No Problem (http://jessicawhitbread.com/project/no-pants-no-problem/) parties that are held in support of women with HIV and have grown to international fame.

Since then he has signed to releases on Ramon Tapia’s Say What Records, Frequenza Records, Natura Viva Black Records, Kiko Records, and Aerotek Recordings, and is a regular contributor to Vancouver’s Groundwerk listening party.
Nathan has also had the opportunity to play alongside international talent such as Pete Tong, Julia Govor, Dubfire, Joseph Capriarti, Jesse Rose, Dave Angel, and Sante and Sidney Charles, as well as working numerous residencies in both Victoria and Vancouver over the years.
Nathan is fuelled by a love of music, an eye for the technical, and a love for not only the party as a whole, but also the community surrounding it.

Audiofox has been passionate about electronic music for over a decade. Originally drawn to House music, her ability to express herself musically came through her transition into deeper musical styles of Deep House, Tech House, Minimal. She’s played at a variety of parties, clubs and local festivals but the particular highlights include opening for Atish and having the opportunity to play at Burningman 2013 with the TreeHouse Art Car crew. Her love of music and all things bass-y comes through in her solid track selection and sexy deep beats that will keep keep you groovin’ till the daylight.

Based out of Victoria, British Columbia, boizNcatz aka Geoff Laurence, has quickly established himself as an versatile performer. New to the decks & no stranger to the sound, boizNcatz has been curiosuly cat-laborating on events with the PLUR Collective since inception in 2016, hosting the infamous "Pants Off Dance Off" parties in support of HIV/HCV positive youth, and “CatHAUS” which supports newcomers and refugees. Part human, part feral feline, this prowling Queerdo curates beats sprinkled with pawfuls of juicy vocals, low kicks, and crisp hi-hats that keep clawin' back. Hold on to your boots, kitties: boizNcatz will be spinning the uuntz 4 months.
