GALLERY: Zumbathon raises much-needed funds for Cansa

GOLD Reef City, in association with Cansa and Icarus Media, hosted the Cansa Shades of Pink Zumbathon powered by Group 1 Renault The Glen and Z-Dance Fitness on October 13 at the Jozi Urban Market. The aim of the event was to set a record for the most people participating in a Zumbathon in South Africa and, more importantly, to raise much needed funds for Cansa.

The energetic 90-minute Shades of Pink Zumbathon attracted a diverse group of people from all walks of life and age groups. The energy was electric, and the enthusiastic group proudly raised R28 000 for Cansa.

Make sure you don’t miss out next year! This is an annual event and will be happening again on October 10, 2020.

“We want to reach at least 1 000 people to set the SA record for 2020,” enthused Yolandi Jacobs from Cansa East Rand. “Please save the date and let’s get as many companies and groups together for the #BattleoftheZumba.”

Participants enjoyed a fashion show after the Zumbathon with models from Ace Models JHB South and Ace Models JHB North wearing Zumba and yoga pants from Pilates and Yoga Design.

Participants who completed the Zumbathon received Group 1 Renault The Glen goodie bags, with a medal, cap, Bonaqua water from their partner Coca-Cola Beverages SA and a Z-Dance Fitness SA T-shirt.

The purpose of Cansa is to offer a unique, integrated service to the public and to all people affected by cancer.
