"Be aware and Dance" Zumbathon Event
The year is 1997.
The star player of renowned soccer team Fenerbahce, Sedat Balkanlı...
...begins suffering a speech impediment at the peak of his career.
Nobody can understand why this is happening to him.
Until after 3 months, he was diagnosed with ALS.
Sedat Balkanlı is not with us anymore.
HOWEVER...
İsmail Gökcek is with us...
Dr. Alper Kaya is with us...
Stephen Hawking is with us..
Augie Nieto is with us...
6000 people are still with us in Turkey.
Turkey ALS-MNH Foundation was established by Sedat Balkanlı and İsmail Gökçek....
...in order to connect and unite...
...ALS sufferers and their relatives.
Thousands of people who suffer from ALS...
...chose to see this disease as a journey...
In their vessel of hope...
They need to believe...
They need hope...
They need a cure...
They need your help.
Zumba Fitness has organized events across the world for ALS sufferers.
We also organized similar events in Turkey.
But last year, we were missing one; because YOU weren't there.
This year, we are together again.
Dance with us.
For today, your nervous system is able to control your muscles.
Celebrate that!
Be aware on June 21st, World ALS Awareness Day!
