Shake your Tailfeathers!
A Latin-inspired cardio fitness workout, called Zumba (pronounced zoom-ba), is one of the most recent hits, sparking national attention, especially in the Southeast and Midwest. Movements that resemble belly dancing, the salsa and the meringue are tossed into the mix for a fun and exhilarating way to reshape the entire body.
“Ladies, don’t be shy, come join us! Swing those hips and shake, shake, shake!” There’s a variety of levels that come into the classroom which allows the instructor to work individually & collectively on everyone’s level. Participants will be able to stick to simpler basic moves while more advanced participants can add and elaborate to give the workout flair to make it more challenging.
An early morning class is offered Tuesdays and Thursdays at 9 a.m. There are also evening classes Monday-Thursday at 6 p.m. with Tuesdays and Thursdays currently being held; Mondays and Wednesdays begin May 16.
The only requirement for Zumba is to have a towel and water at each class. Comfortable light workout clothing and tennis shoes are important too. All fitness levels welcome!
