Get your glow gear ready. It's time to WERQ Hard, Play Hard at Evansville's 8th annual Glow for Kids' Sake charityWERQ benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of SW Indiana!
This year, we’re leveling up the energy with Glow for Kids' Sake 2026: Battle Royale!
WERQ (pronounced “work”) is the wildly addictive cardio dance workout based on the hottest pop and hip-hop music, led by certified fitness professionals. WERQ believes in working hard and giving back to the community, and we are thrilled to partner with Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) to raise funds for this incredible organization. BBBS changes lives by helping children realize their potential and build their futures. Through BBBS charityWERQs, WERQaholics strengthen communities and bring people together to dance and make a difference.
WERQ also believes in playing hard- and this year’s interactive showdown is going to be epic!
