Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum’s cardiovascular practice transcends traditional women’s healthcare.

It’s where listening leads to communication and better understanding.
Where compassion makes a true patient connection.
It’s the simple wisdom that proactive, preventive medicine can take women to a richer, healthier place.
And awareness that even the small changes in a woman’s life can produce perhaps the biggest result of all:

A Woman’s self-care becomes her health-care.

Dr. Steinbaum is presently in practice in New York City.

Join Dr. Steinbaum at the first annual Dance-a-Thin™, where she’ll be a celebrity judge!  Details are below.

CELEBRITY TRAINER CARA CASTRONUOVA TO HOST FITNESS FUNDRAISING EVENT

NBC’s Biggest Loser trainer kicks-off charity with first annual Dance-a-Thin™

NEW YORK, NY (May 16, 2013) – In an effort to raise awareness of healthy lifestyle choices and combat obesity, Celebrity fitness expert, NBC’s Biggest Loser trainer and Motivational Speaker Cara Castronuova proudly announces the creation of her charity, KnockOut Obesity, Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to fitness empowerment for women and adolescents.

The launch event in celebration of KnockOut Obesity will be the first annual Dance-a-Thin™, a fitness fundraising festivity, on Saturday June 1st, on the campus of Hofstra University in Hempstead, NY from 7pm-11pm. All proceeds will benefit KnockOut Obesity and help send local NY children to fitness camp this summer.

“I’m psyched for this event, it’s going to be so much fun. Plus all the proceeds will send kids to camp, so the spirit will be very positive,” stated Castronuova. “I love freestyle dancing as a workout because it is so freeing, and empowering. So I want everyone to come prepared to let loose!”

Dance-a-Thin™ welcomes attendees of varied rhythmic ability, from beginners to experts, to show off their moves during the dance-off, segments of which will be led by professional dancers from a myriad of technique such as Broadway, belly dancing and others. The festivities will also include a “pink-carpet” entrance, relaxation and massage stations, contests, door prizes and much more!

A range of celebrities, professional athletes, public figures and health professionals will be in attendance to help support this worthwhile cause such as Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum (Preventive Cardiologist, Lenox Hill Hospital; Women & Heart Disease Advocate), and Vikki S. Ziegler (Celebrity Lawyer, Host of Bravo TV’s Divorce Diva).

Prominent sponsors include Vikki Zielger, Divorcedating.com, Power Play International, Everlast, Sneaky Pete’s Beverage, and Mainstream Entertainment Group.

During the event, Castronuova will also present the debuting Woman Warrior Award™ to select women of outstanding character and integrity that embody the spirit of a true woman warrior and empower women and girls everywhere.

“Dance-a-Thin™ is all about having fun and it doesn’t matter the dance experience,” says Castronuova. “The goal is for everyone to have fun and raise money for children, all at the same time.”

Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 at the door. For tickets and event information, please visit knockoutobesityfoundation.com and caracastronuova.com.
