Celebrate Global Wellness Day with Chiva-Som

Chiva-Som celebrates Global Wellness Day (GWD) 2023 through the medium of dance. Now in its 12th year, GWD encourages people to focus on their health, prioritising their well-being and self-care. On Saturday, Chiva-Som Hua Hin and Zulal Wellness Resort by Chiva-Som in Qatar will share the joy of dance with guests, in celebration of the annual event. To demonstrate the positive effects of dancing, both wellness resorts have announced a dance programme to embrace the official #DanceMagenta theme.

Chiva-Som Hua Hin will present a Zumba dance class for resort guests. This fun, full-body boogie session promotes benefits such as weight loss, muscle toning and as importantly the social aspect of group exercise. For more information or reservations at Chiva-Som Hua Hin, email reservations@chivasom.com or visit chivasom.com.

Meanwhile, resort activities at Zulal Wellness Resort are open to the public as well as in-house guests and include a 30-minute Dancing Meditation in which participants are encouraged to let go to release endorphins and euphoria hormones. The 45-minute get fit, stay fit Zumba session for adults is also planned to enable participants to move to the groove, free the mind and add some zest into the day.

There are multiple #Dancemagenta activities for kids aged 16 and below, including two Latin-inspired cardio workouts. The Cha Cha Slide for kids is planned to put hop, clap and stomp power into the party dance. Disco Bingo for kids, in which song titles are marked off the card as they are played, is a groovy twist on the traditional number format and challenges the younger folk to move to the music, twist to the tunes and shake and shimmy away worries. For those who prefer a more relaxed session, a special Animal Yoga class for kids has been added to the schedule. It’s a fun yet calming activity for kids of all ages that strengthens their mind-body connection while supporting the development of balance and coordination, focus and concentration.
