Thunder Snow and Punching Stuff

Hi everyone!

So sorry that we had to cancel classes on Thursday and Friday because of Thundersnow 2013.  But, we should be back to a normal schedule this week.

So for those of you that missed my classes last Thursday and Friday, here's when you can make them up:

Monday, January 25 at 8:15
Thursday, January 28 at 7:30
Friday, January 29 at 5:30

Hope to see you in class!

One Billion Rising

Since I'm trying to branch out what I write about here and include all sorts of things that Zumba lovers will enjoy, today I'm going to talk about a social cause that I think is really important.  It's called One Billion Rising, and it's an effort to wipe out violence women.

New Jams

This week I've been looking for new songs for Zumba class.

"Noche De Estrellas" by Jose de Rico was actually recommended by one of my Zumba class participants.  It's a great upbeat song with a merengue rhythm.  I can't wait to make up a dance to this song!

Kick It!

I know this blog is supposed to be about Zumba, but I'm going to expand it a little bit.  I want to share other fun exercise programs that Zumba lovers will love.

Why, you ask?  I'm currently dealing with what the doctors think is an overuse injury on my tailbone.  It led to an extremely humiliating hour of physical therapy in December.  And, I don't want that to happen to you all!  I hope you'll join me in putting a little variation in your workouts.
