Dancing Toward Wellness—Together:
Thrive and Dhaka Flow kick off a year of joyful giving back

11 July 2025

Something magical happ

ens when movement meets meaning, and on May 21, we felt that magic at JAAGO Foundation School (Bannai) in Dhaka.
In partnership with our friends at Dhaka Flow, we co-hosted the first of a series of wellness events designed to inspire community, connection, and better health for all, especially the children we serve. This joyful afternoon brought Thrive-supported students and Dhaka Flow volunteers together for dancing and nutrition under the banner of community wellness.
Kids twirled. Volunteers clapped. Music pulsed. And for a few hours, the walls of the school were filled with a radiant kind of energy – the kind that comes from shared purpose.
This event was just the beginning. Thrive will partner with Dhaka Flow throughout the year for a series of child-focused, fun, inclusive wellness activities. The culmination will be Thrive joining Dhaka Flow’s Flow Fest from November 6-8, for a walk-a-thon to benefit Thrive, along with hundreds of free classes (yoga, Zumba, martial arts), workshops, and family-friendly live music.
“At Dhaka Flow, movement is our love language,” said Shazia Omar, Dhaka Flow’s founder. “We’re thrilled to team up with Thrive to give back in the most powerful way we know: by showing up for kids with joy, energy, and our whole hearts.”
We believe wellness should be a right, not a privilege. Through this partnership, we’re working to make that belief a reality, one joyful dance at a time.
Stay tuned for more stories as this partnership unfolds. We can’t wait to share what’s next!
