The World Wellness Weekend will arrive in Mijas on the 20th of September. From 10 to 21 hours, the Torreón de La Cala square will be buzzing with this event, which is held on the last weekend of summer in 155 countries under the slogan 'Make wellness your superpower'.
"It is a global gathering for wellbeing, mental, emotional and physical... all aspects of family wellbeing", explained Silvia Mengíbar, president of the Círculo de Mujeres Casa Luna Association and ambassador for World Wellness Weekend in Mijas, at the presentation of the event on Friday. "We want to showcase the many therapies available today, with alternatives to help people feel good, such as yoga, Pilates, biodanza, bachata, salsa… everything that gets families moving. At the end of summer, there is nothing better than this gathering to reflect on what we’ve experienced and to recharge for the start of the new school year with energy and enthusiasm. That is why we have organised this wonderful event that we will enjoy here in La Cala", added Mengíbar.
Free activities
The activities, workshops and therapies are varied and will take place in different spaces, including a stage and the three tents that will be set up: one for massages, one for coaching and one for various initiatives. "We work on both the physical and emotional aspects of wellbeing. Among other activities, there will be sports, Zumba, pole dancing, storytelling, coaching, fashion workshops and a range pf therapies", said Lina Badouca, World Wellness Weekend ambassador in Mijas and Fuengirola. Registration can be done on the day of the event, although the organisers recommend booking in advance. "You can also contact the professionals running the workshops to book a place", explained Badouca.
In addition to the activities on the 20th in the Plaza del Torreón, on Sunday the 21st, some centres, foundations and even hotels in Mijas will also take part by opening their doors to offer different workshops and exhibitions. These include the Socio-Cultural Association Mujeres Mijitas, the Vik Gran Hotel Costa del Sol in La Cala, the Mijas Care Clinic Centre and Nordic Mindset Spain.
