ZPavanoo Q8, one of Kuwait’s top Zumba teams will mark its 9th year anniversary Friday morning at Jawarhat Al Saleh Gym in New Riggae. The event invites top Zumba presenters to spearhead a two hours workout.  

ZPavanoo Q8 was established in 2015 through the sponsorship of Mr. Pavanoo, a generous donor who contributed to the founding of the team. “When my daughter won a pageant, Mr. Pavanoo asked if I could start an organization for the benefit of everyone, so I decided to kick-off with a Zumba as fitness is very essential to achieving good health and through the assistance of Sarah Dacara who then was an aspiring trainer, the team was formed” commented Honey Roxas, President of ZPavanoo Q8.

Roxas added that Mr. Pavanoo provided the initial funds to purchase essential items to start the workouts every Friday including part of Dacara’s fees to acquire a license.

Since then, the team has been one of the Friday’s destinations in Riggae. ZPavanoo Q8 is one of the active Zumba groups in Kuwait, which mission is to provide fun and enjoyable social environment and with its vision to improve physical and mental health of the participants by incorporating dance with aerobic elements targeting weight loss, body toning, stress relief and improve coordination.
