Moving On Up!

Lots of exciting new things happening! First, I got my own class (No subbing!) at Golds Gym. This is awesome, and I'm very excited to start next month. The Zumba instructors there are AMAZING, and I know Golds has a high standard of what they expect from instructors, so I'm really looking forward to meeting those expectations. Lets see, while we are on the subject of Golds Gym, we hosted a Zumbathon event to benefit The Red Cross, Hurricane Sandy relief. I was very excited to be able to participate in an event that was so near and dear to my heart. The energy was AMAZING, lots of people showed up, and I didn't stop dancing (or, let me say I COULDN'T stop dancing)for 3 hours!! We raised $1188 total, which was an awesome donation. Two of my students from Anytime Fitness wound up coming to the Zumbathon. It was nice to see some familiar faces in the sea of people. They just started Zumba, and they are both very enthusiastic about it. It was so great to have them. One of them won a t-shirt! This is the best part--in class last night, not only did she wear the t-shirt with pride, but she and her friend BOTH stood in the front row, instead of the back. I felt like a proud momma watching that transformation unfold before my eyes! Stay tuned, there's lots more excitement in the works!
