Sheraton Doha Resort & Convention Hotel hosts Zumba Party in Pink

Sheraton Doha Resort & Convention Hotel, the 5 star iconic hotel in Doha, hosted a Zumba ‘Party in Pink™’ event on Tuesday 20^th October, 2015. This initiative was organised by the Zumba Fitness Doha Qatar Team, sponsored by International Bank of Qatar (ibq) and supported by Digitek. The goal of ‘Party in Pink™’ charity campaign was to connect Zumba® instructors and local community to help raise awareness of breast cancer and to depict life, fun and energy through Zumbathon.

The Zumbathon was coordinated by a team of Zumba experts led by Imad Askar, Zumba® instructor, where Sheraton Doha hosted approximately 200 women who danced because they care. Full proceeds from the event were donated to Qatar Cancer Society, a humanitarian organization dedicated to the prevention and treatment of cancer. The event reiterates Sheraton Doha's commitment to support health and fitness initiatives that aim to transform Qatar into a healthy society. The special event was dedicated to learning, sharing and communicating with women to reinforce the message that breast cancer is curable, if detected and diagnosed early, and highlight the importance of a healthy lifestyle for overall well-being.
