This is a fun and cool place. Perfect for your bachelor/bachorlette party or a rehearsal dinner with a Latin Flair. Your wedding reception wouldn't be forgotten if it was held here. My husband & I went to an event here on Tuesday and had a blast. The food is catered by Wolfgang Puck. It is located in the new LA Live in Downtown Los Angeles. Inside, there are a few places that can be sectioned off for private parties so you can be a part of the nightclub but have your own private place. There is also a balcony that over looks Nokia Plaza. The place holds over 100o people. They have Salsa classes on Saturdays. So for your next event or a fun date night, head downtown to The Conga Room.
The Heart Truth is that one in four American women dies of heart disease, and most fail to make the connection between risk factors—such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol—and their personal risk of developing heart disease.
The Heart Truth campaign warns women about heart disease and provides tools to help them take action against its risk factors. It is primarily targeted to women ages 40 to 60, the time when a woman’s risk of heart disease begins to increase. However, it’s never too early—or too late—to take action to prevent and control risk factors since heart disease develops over time and can start at a young age—even in the teen years.
The campaign message is paired with an arresting visual—the Red Dress—designed to warn women that heart disease is their #1 killer. The Heart Truth created and introduced the Red Dress as the national symbol for women and heart disease awareness in 2002 to deliver an urgent wake-up call to American women. The Red Dress reminds women of the need to protect their heart health, and inspires them to take action.
The Heart Truth partners include: The Office on Women's Health, DHHS; WomenHeart: the National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease; the American Heart Association; and other organizations committed to the health and well-being of women.
What’s a Red Dress Got to Do With It?
The Red Dress was designed to build awareness that women are at risk for heart disease, and motivate them to take action to reduce their risk. The creative concept of a Red Dress tested well with diverse women who cited its ability to get attention, convey the seriousness of heart disease, and change the perception that it is only a man’s issue.
The symbol links a woman’s focus on her “outer self” to the need to also focus on her “inner self,” especially her heart health. The Red Dress serves as a red alert to convey the message that “Heart Disease Doesn’t Care What You Wear—It’s the #1 Killer of Women.
So let's wear red to raise awareness about heart disease. It can begin as early as our teens.
Happy Planning
