The Galleria Al Maryah Island launches free Let’s Walk! programme

Partner content: Take part in the new community-focused fitness initiative

Want to get more active? The hot summer weather in Abu Dhabi doesn’t have to hamper your fitness goals. You can still get your steps in while keeping comfortable thanks to The Galleria Al Maryah Island’s brand-new free Let’s Walk! programme which launches on Wednesday June 8. Powered by the free STEPPI app, Let’s Walk! is a year-round initiative that rewards fitness with exciting discounts and offers from brands at The Galleria.

Let’s Walk! features guided walks led by a certified trainer times a week – every Monday, Wednesday and Friday starting at 8.30am in Central Kitchens, Level 3. The distance covered will be approximately three kilometres and will take you on different routes within The Galleria to keep things fresh.

People can just show up for the guided walks, no pre-booking required. To track your steps and unlock rewards, or join challenges, simply download the STEPPI app. Steps and challenges are always on – for example, the chance to win a Fitbit wearable every week.   

Like we said, the Let’s Walk! programme is free and so is the STEPPI app to download. What are you waiting for?

The Let’s Walk! initiative is a great way to keep healthy in a comfortable indoor environment during the hot summer months, and you’ll be able to continue with it year-round. There’s no need to worry about slathering on the SPF. You’ll be able to walk inside the comfortable air-conditioned interiors at The Galleria. What’s better than some window shopping and fitness?

To join, simply download and register using the STEPPI app and simply show up for the guided walks. The STEPPI app will track all steps, which you can use to unlock rewards from participating brands at The Galleria, such as Joga, Sushi Art, Bath & Body Works, Tortilla, Kababji & Grill, Coffee Hat, Almayass, Kiehl’s and more.

If you’re ready to get competitive, every month The Galleria will host dedicated challenges via STEPPI. Guests can complete the monthly challenge for the chance to win prizes. These can be found under STEPPI Challenges by selecting “The Galleria”.

The first challenge is sponsored by Huawei and launches mid-June. The goal is to walk 5,000 every day for one week. Those who complete the challenge will be put into a draw to win prizes from Huawei.

Steps, shopping and avoiding the summer sun, the free Let’s Walk! programme at The Galleria Maryah Island makes getting active simple. Get started this summer and continue stepping the rest of the year.

Lace up your trainers.

Bonus: For the launch of Let’s Walk! The Galleria Al Maryah Island is giving away free branded sports T-shirts for all participants joining the guided walks in June, while quantities last.

 Free. From Wed Jun 8. Mon, Wed, Fri 8.30am (guided walks). The Galleria Al Maryah Island, Al Maryah Island [https://www.thegalleria.ae/en/magazine/lets-walk/].
