Fresh Start: Take the Plunge!

A Hot & Cold Bathhouse Adventure at The Ripple

Some mornings call for coffee. This one calls for a cold plunge!

Register HERE!

Ready to turn up the heat, embrace the chill, and try something completely different?

Teetotal Initiative's Fresh Start series is heading to The Ripple , Lawrenceville's cozy, one-of-a-kind pop-up bathhouse, for a Saturday morning filled with warmth, wellness, a little adventure, and plenty of good company!

Founded by sisters Anna and Lydia, The Ripple was inspired by their experiences exploring natural hot springs and bathhouses around the world. They fell in love with contrast therapy, the practice of alternating between hot and cold, and decided to bring a little of that magic home to Pittsburgh.

And now we're taking the plunge!

Imagine sinking into a warm, bubbling hot tub, letting the heat of the sauna melt away the week's stress, and then, if you're feeling adventurous, dipping into the invigorating chill of a cold plunge.

Sound refreshing? Absolutely!

Sound a little ridiculous? Maybe!

Will it be an experience worth talking about? We certainly think so!

And here's the best part: There's no pressure to do anything you're not comfortable with. Whether you're ready to embrace the icy waters or would rather keep things comfortably toasty, this experience is yours to enjoy at your own pace.

When you're not soaking, sweating, or plunging, join us in The Ripple's inviting common area, where we'll have some beverages and snacks waiting. It's the perfect opportunity to relax, strike up a conversation, meet someone new, or simply hang out with some pretty fantastic people.

Because at Teetotal Initiative, we believe wellness is about more than just taking care of ourselves. It's about connection, community, trying new things, and discovering just how much fun life can be.
