We have all heard about it...ZUMBA! It is quickly growing into one of the top fitness programs in the world. As a certified Zumba Instructor I can attest to you all that it is a great workout. Have you tried Zumba and found you did not like it? I beg you do not stop! The quality of each class highly depends on the instructor and level of the class. Some classes are very low key and geared towards a more steady workout. The classes that my partner, Jeffrey, and I teach at WIU however, are very intense and average about 80 people a class. We include lots of hip hop, plyometrics, bootcamp inspired routines and high intensity intervals within our dance routines! If you are in the Macomb area you need to try the class. I promise you will sweat buckets with the style we teach. We have been teaching on average 3-6 classes a week all year and we still sweat like crazy and get a awesome workout! Our class at WIU is on Mon.@ 4:30, Tues & Thurs. @ 12:15 p.m and Wed. @ 5:30.

Zumba-thons have also became a huge trend. We have had several throughout the area. Rushville was successful with one giving all funds to Breast Cancer Funding, and many have been successful for schools, funding, and most recently the "All Area Winter Dance Showcase" where the funds went to the dance dept. for Rushville Schools - a much needed asset to the schools funding!!
If you or your organization is interested in a fun way to fund raise or sponsor a great cause, get a hold of me..as I am always happy to assist and/or instruct at a Zumba-thon!!
