The Offline Collective in Edmonton is a membership community designed for people who want to slow things down and reconnect — with themselves, with others, and with their city.
At a time when the world is dominated by screens, schedules, and constant noise, the Offline Collective offers a more intentional way of living. Through small group walks, thoughtful conversations, and curated offline experiences, members are invited to step away from performance and into presence.
While walks are a visible part of what we do, they are only one expression of a broader lifestyle shift toward connection, calm, and community.
WHAT IS THE OFFLINE COLLECTIVE?
The Offline Collective is not a traditional club or event series. It’s a community built around a shared value system — choosing depth over speed and presence over productivity.
Membership is designed to fit into real lives, not overwhelm them. You are not expected to attend every experience. Instead, you are invited into a slower rhythm that prioritizes meaningful connection when it makes sense for you.
This approach allows the Offline Collective to grow sustainably while maintaining the calm, human feel that defines it.
OFFLINE WALKS IN EDMONTON (A SIGNATURE EXPERIENCE)
Offline walks are one of the signature experiences offered through the Offline Collective in Edmonton.
Each walk is intentionally capped at 20–30 participants to preserve a relaxed, conversational atmosphere. Smaller groups allow for genuine interaction, thoughtful pacing, and the kind of connection that doesn’t happen in crowded or rushed environments.
Because of this, not every member attends every walk. Access is rotated, waitlists are used, and priority shifts to ensure fairness and variety. This model allows more people to participate over time without sacrificing the quality of the experience.
Walks are a meaningful part of the Offline Collective — but they are not the entire offering.
BEYOND WALKS: OFFLINE EXPERIENCES AND CONVERSATIONS
The Offline Collective in Edmonton includes several ways for members to connect offline, including:
Offline Conversations
- Talks, panels, and fireside-style gatherings focused on wellness, mental health, aging well, creativity, balance, and modern life.
- These events are designed to be approachable, thoughtful, and community-oriented, often accommodating larger groups than the walks.
Small Group Experiences
- Optional, ticketed experiences such as workshops, tastings, guided discussions, and creative sessions for those who want to explore specific topics in more depth.
- These experiences remain intentionally small to encourage engagement and connection.
Members-Only Touchpoints
- Regular updates, reflections, and invitations help members stay connected to the Offline Collective, even when they are not attending in-person events.
- Membership is about belonging, not constant participation.
Monthly Meetups
- Alongside our walks, members are invited to Monthly Meetups — casual, no-pressure get-togethers designed to keep people active and offline.
- Think skating, pickleball, a wine tasting, or a pickup game in the park. Nothing formal. Just a reason to meet, move, and connect.
- Come when it fits. Skip when it doesn’t. Community without obligation.
WHY THE OFFLINE COLLECTIVE KEEPS EXPERIENCES SMALL
The Offline Collective was intentionally designed to avoid scale at the expense of quality.
Smaller experiences:
- Encourage real conversation
- Reduce social pressure
- Support a calm, inclusive environment
- Allow people to show up as they are
This approach is not about exclusivity. It’s about intention and respect for the experience.
WHO THE OFFLINE COLLECTIVE IS FOR
The Offline Collective in Edmonton is for people who:
- Want meaningful connection without pressure
- Feel overwhelmed by constant online engagement
- Value quality experiences over packed schedules
- Appreciate thoughtful, well-curated gatherings
You don’t need to attend everything to feel part of the community. Most members don’t — and that’s exactly how it’s meant to work.
A DIFFERENT WAY TO LIVE — TOGETHER
Joining the Offline Collective isn’t about securing access to every walk or event. It’s about choosing a slower, more intentional way of connecting.
Sometimes that looks like a walk through the city.
Sometimes it’s a conversation over a drink.
Sometimes it’s simply knowing there’s a community aligned with how you want to live.
That’s what the Offline Collective offers.
How the Offline Collective Works
The Offline Collective is designed to fit into real lives — not compete with them.
When you join, you become part of a community that values presence, thoughtful connection, and a slower pace. There’s no pressure to attend everything, and no expectation to be constantly “on.”
Throughout the year, members are invited to a mix of experiences including small group walks, conversations, talks, and optional ticketed gatherings. Some experiences are intentionally limited in size to protect the quality of the experience, while others allow for larger groups.
Access to walks and events is rotated to keep things fair and to ensure more people have the opportunity to participate over time. Both our annual membership and monthly memberships provide early access, member pricing on select experiences, and ongoing connection — even when you’re not attending something in person.
The Offline Collective isn’t about doing more. It’s about showing up differently.
