KUALA LUMPUR, 25 October 2022 – After two years of the pandemic the most anticipated Watsons GetActive Fest Zumba party is making its return this year. Watsons Move Your Body Zumba is an event to continuously support Watsons Malaysia’s #GETACTIVE campaign that encourages Malaysians to stay active and lead a healthy lifestyle.
“At Watsons, we are always committed to promoting a healthy lifestyle and this year is our seventh (7) year in organising the GetActive Fest. We look forward to bringing together Malaysians from all backgrounds and ages to dance and socialize just like in the good old times in a safe environment. I look forward to making this the biggest Zumba event ever in Malaysia.” said Caryn Loh, Managing Director of Watsons Malaysia.
More than 6,000 participants have gathered at Sunway Lagoon Theme Park for this year’s event.
GetActive Fest opened its door in the evening and kickstarted with a health and beauty bazaar featuring Watsons’ participating brands and partners. Participants enjoyed sampling, vouchers, games and winning prizes. On top of that, the Watsons’ Pharmacist team were present to provide basic health checks and product recommendations. Participants have won prizes up to RM16,000 in lucky draw sessions throughout the evening.
Caryn added, “This year’s event is an especially meaningful one as we get to do a good deed while dancing Zumba. A portion of the proceeds from tickets goes towards the restoration of 2000 trees at Lower Kinabatangan, Sabah. This is a joint initiative with APE Malaysia.”
Not only that, but the highlight of the evening also continued with Move Your Body Zumba, the largest Zumba movement in Malaysia led by the power pack Zumba Duo Alex Phang & Deno Au. The night became more spectacular with live performances by Meer Nash, Gadys, Razzuan Rosly and more.
“This year’s Zumba is packed with a fun fusion of dance moves and workouts for all ages. It is also a fantastic total body workout, burns huge calories and is a great activity to release stress. With this we hope to encourage the community to get your groove on and start a healthy fitness regime.” said Danny Hoh, Customer Director of Watsons Malaysia.
Caryn ended, “We would like to thank all our business partners, and participating brands and not forgetting our members and customers for their continuous support who helped made this happen and in making this event a successful one.”
