Make your move, Attend an event
We often take for granted that we can move. Unfortunately, there are many people who can’t — because of a disease called ALS. Also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease, ALS is a progressive motor neurone disease that robs people of the ability to move their muscles.
But you can make a move for those who can’t. Attend a United We Dance to Cure ALS™ Zumbathon® charity event between February 1 and March 31, 2012, and give people with this disease hope that one day they’ll move again. 75% of ticket fees from each Zumbathon® event directly benefit MDA’s Augie’s Quest, a nonprofit research initiative dedicated to finding treatments and cures for ALS.

Make your move to cure als, Host an event
Team up with Zumba® Fitness and Clubs for the Quest to help find a cure for ALS and support legendary fitness leader Augie Nieto’s charity – MDA’s Augie’s Quest, a nonprofit research initiative dedicated to finding treatments and cures for ALS. Also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease, ALS is a progressive motor neurone disease that robs people of the ability to move their muscles.

HOW YOU CAN HELP
Hosting an event is easy. Simply join forces with your Zumba® Instructor *, get members moving for a good cause and bring new members into your club!
-
Make sure your Zumba® Instructor is a member of the Zumba® Instructor Network (ZIN™). This ensures the instructor is licensed and qualified to host a Zumbathon® charity event.
-
You can verify your instructor’s status by visiting zumba.com and using the Find an Instructor feature to view your instructor’s profile. A ZIN logo will appear on the profile page if your instructor is part of the Zumba® Instructor Network.
-
If you’re not able to view the instructor’s full profile (and only see his or her name and location), then the instructor is not a ZIN Member and is not eligible to host a Zumbathon® charity event. You can easily find other Zumba® Instructors who are ZIN Members by using the Find an Instructor feature on zumba.com, typing in your club’s address and viewing full instructor profiles. These profile pages will always include a ZIN logo.
-
Once you find a ZIN Member you like, you’re set. No additional prep work on your part is required. You just need an empty space (ex: group x room, basketball court, etc.) and a sound system.
-
The ZIN Member you select will need to apply to host a Zumbathon® event at your club by clicking on the “ZIN™ Members” tab above and filling out the online application.
- Select a Date. You can host your United We Dance to Cure ALS™ Zumbathon® charity event anytime between February 1 and March 31, 2012.
-
Once the online application is approved, your ZIN Member will handle the rest, including promoting the event with posters, flyers and more, which we provide.
So get ready to pack your club with new members, energy, excitement and lots of goodwill!
