Charisse Abalos leads Mandaleños to a healthy lifestyle through “Zhumba

Zhumba Caravan

What is the most fun way of combining cardiovascular workout 

With rhythmic dance and pop music? Ask Councilor Charisse and 

She will respond in two words - Zhumba Caravan!

This aerobic fitness program in Mandaluyong City is the 

Brainchild of Miss Charisse. Inspired by the idea of Columbian 

Choreographer, Alberto "Beto" Perez, who merged the South 

American music dance and cardio intervals with resistance 

Training, she conceived this project to bring it to various 

Communities in the Tiger City.

Leading by example, this fit and trim legislator visits a 

Barangay every Saturday morning and dance with its residents. 

Together, they all benefit by toning their muscles and losing 

Their excess cellulite, while enjoying the vigorous moves of 

The world’s latest pop craze.

When asked about the objective of Zumba Caravan, Miss Abalos 

Vivaciously replied, “This project aims to bring and increase 

Awareness on health and wellness on to the different 

Communities and barangays here in Mandaluyong.” While the 

Intention is to educate the people regarding the positive 

Effects of exercise on their general physical condition, she 

Also added that this project “serves as an avenue where city 

Residents can mingle and have fun together while dancing their 

Way towards a healthy lifestyle.”

With easy-to-follow dance routines, the participants rise 

Above the physical challenge of exercises. Within an hour of 

Zumba session, they work out longer, burn calories faster, and 

Produce lots of endorphins. In no time, they achieve their 

Body sculpting goals and end up as happier citizens.           

So the next time you go to any public gym in Mandaluyong, and 

You see a lot of energetic people sweating out from aerobic 

Exercises, and moving their bodies with the Latin beat, then 

You better join them and experience the Zumba fever!
