abu dhabi — The Capital’s residents will be getting more than just a health-kick when Abu Dhabi Alive comes to town at the end of the month — with free consultations and fitness classes on offer to inspire the country’s health-conscious to get more motivated.
The UAE’s new fitness and lifestyle event will not only get the heart rate racing, but will be bursting with ways to educate and inspire everyone to become fitter, healthier and stronger.
Starting November 27 and running till November 30, Abu Dhabi Alive will take up residence at Zayed Sports City, and whether you’re looking to start a new, healthy lifestyle or maintain and elevate body fitness, this is the event for you.
Activelife by Daman will be offering free body composition assessments, live Zumba classes and free gifts for visitors when they play the ‘wheel of health’ game, as well as performing street dancing shows.
Abu Dhabi Sports Council will also be on hand promoting their vision of using the culture of sport professionalism, as well as systematic performance methods, to create a sport-proactive environment.
Gold’s Gym International, the largest international gym chain in the world, is the latest exhibitor to confirm their participation at Abu Dhabi Alive, where its representatives will be hosting live fitness classes and will give away free memberships to two lucky visitors.
Abu Dhabi Alive will also feature the challenging Adventure HQ’s climbing wall — a simulated rock formation affixed with numerous hand and footholds to test one’s mental and physical strength, endurance and self-confidence.
The UAE’s first and only floatation centre will also be raising awareness about the benefits of floatation for the body and mind.
Specialist in Ayurvedic and Holistic Medicine at Point Zero Floatation Dr Asma Inamdar, said her facility offers something a little different to conventional health and fitness regimes.
