Under The Classroom by Minato

One night during winter break, a group of teens transformed our studio into something electric.

Under The Classroom wasn’t just another party. It was a full-on Boiler Room–style event organized, promoted, and DJ’d by teens. Built for other teens to come together, dance, and experience music the way it was meant to be felt: live, loud, and in community.

The event was the brainchild of DJ Minato, a teen creator in our Vivistop community who saw a gap- not enough spaces where teens could just show up, be themselves, and enjoy good music in a safe, fun environment. So he made one.

With a stacked lineup featuring DJ Izumo, DJ Ijah, and DJ Minato himself, the energy never let up. Beats pulsed the room moved, and the crowd was right there for every drop. But it wasn’t just the music that made the night, it was the full experience.

Minato even set up a custom mocktail bar, where partygoers could grab soft drinks or try one of his signature crafted drinks, curated specifically for the event. It gave the space that extra touch of creativity and intention.

There were no awkward chaperone vibes, no heavy rules. Just good music, good people, and a space where everyone felt free to dance, connect, and be themselves.

Under The Classroom reminded us that when you give teens the outlet, they won’t just show up, they’ll build something unforgettable. It was raw, real, and exactly what it needed to be.
