Yoga for a Cause: Mindful Movement with Purpose
One of the key events taking place is Yoga for a Cause, a heartfelt yoga session led by lululemon instructors. This event will be hosted at three Rixos properties and promises to be an empowering experience for participants. The session encourages unity by inviting participants to wear pink in honor of Pinktober and the strength of breast cancer survivors.
Guests and participants will be treated to more than just a yoga class. Rixos Hotels will donate a portion of proceeds to breast cancer research, further solidifying its commitment to this important cause. In-house guests, as well as members of Majlis Al Amal, including cancer survivors and patients, are specially invited to participate. These guests will also enjoy exclusive pool and beach access, creating a day of wellness and relaxation in a supportive environment.
During the yoga session, a survivor from Majlis Al Amal will share her personal journey, bringing an inspirational touch to the event and emphasizing the importance of early detection. This moment of reflection will serve as a reminder of the resilience and strength of those impacted by breast cancer.
Participants will be provided with lululemon’s pink yoga mats, symbolizing the unity and solidarity of the movement. In addition to the session, guests will have the chance to explore lululemon’s latest workout gear, and take part in engaging competitions where they can win fantastic prizes.
Supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month: A Call to Action
By attending these events, guests are doing more than just practicing wellness—they are contributing to a greater cause. Through initiatives like Yoga for a Cause, Rixos Hotels aims to raise critical awareness for early detection, which can save lives. Each pose, each breath, and each conversation holds the potential to make a difference, inspiring hope for a future free from breast cancer.
Ride with Rixos: Cycling for a Cause in Abu Dhabi
In Abu Dhabi, Rixos Marina will host the Ride with Rixos event on October 19th, a memorable cycling journey along the scenic Corniche in collaboration with Al Jalila Foundation, lululemon, Electra, and Hoobara. This event not only brings fitness enthusiasts together but also raises awareness for breast cancer in an uplifting and community-driven atmosphere.
The ride will start and end at Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi, providing participants with an unforgettable experience. A key highlight of the event is the involvement of Tesla, as a Tesla Model 3 will lead participants during the first kilometer of the ride. Other Tesla models, including the S, X, and Y, will be displayed at the starting line for guests to admire.
Before the cycling begins, participants will be guided through a dynamic warm-up session led by lululemon ambassadors, ensuring that everyone is ready for the ride ahead. After completing the scenic route along the Corniche, a post-ride stretching session will further enhance the overall wellness experience.
Collaborations That Enhance the Event
The Ride with Rixos event is supported by key partners who contribute to making the experience unique and memorable. Electra, a Dubai-based globally renowned comfort bike brand, will enhance the ride by providing comfortable and stylish bicycles for participants. Their support ensures that the cycling event is not only enjoyable but also safe and accessible for riders of all levels.
Post-ride refreshments will be provided by Hoobara, known for their focus on healthy, nourishing ingredients. Their delicious snacks will offer the perfect way to recharge after the ride, allowing participants to relax in the serene surroundings of Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi. As participants refuel, they can bask in the world-renowned Turkish hospitality that Rixos Hotels is famous for.
