May 12 ZUMBA SCHEDULEMay 11 Zumba Spring 2009 HELLO ZUMBA FANS! Look like I took a hiatus on the Zumba blog!!!! Last post was Aug 08.. WE ARE IN FULL SWING of Zumba Fitness classes this Spring! New Year's resolutions were made and it looks like people are really sticking to them! WOW!!! Several individuals have publicly noted their amazing weight-loss & body transformations that were caused by attending Zumba Fitness classes. I AM SO PROUD OF EACH OF YOU!!!!! ...and CONGRATS on sticking to your resolutions. Now that summer is fast approaching, we must not lose our focus! Keep doing what you have been doing. If what you have been doing isn't working for you, COME TALK TO ME! I'm a fitness professional and get help you figure out the healthiest plan for you ;] See you in class!!! ~Jumana August 19 No more Zumba @ ShawWell folks, the time has come... I can no longer teach Zumba at the Shaw Community Center for free. I have 3 other locations I am teaching at that are paying me and, just don't have time to teach for free anymore. My son is in shcool and has sports in the evenings; plus, my hubby is deploying so I can't be in all places at once especially that I'll be a single parent for 4 months. If I were getting paid it would be a different story. I hope you all understand!
Most people that come to Zumba on base are already coming to Zumba off-base. I hope the rest of you will join us off base starting in September!!!! Come check out one of the other locations where I teach: Tranquil Journey Spa, Miss Libby's School of Dance & the YMCA all in Sumter!
See you in class,
Jumana June 26 Zumba is G-R-O-W-I-N-G at Shaw! As
I was getting ready for Zumba class today, we got a phone call that the
phase exercise was OVER! (yah!) Then, I noticed the sky was very dark,
and it was pouring rain outside. I thought, FOR SURE no one is coming to Zumba on base today! Low and behold, we had the BIGGEST ATTENDANCE yet! TODAY'S ZUMBA CLASS ON BASE WAS HUGE, GREAT, FUN, AWESOME, & MORE! (...and most of the regulars weren't even there!) I love that we have a great time, rain or shine!! See you all next week, before the 4th of July =D May 21 Full-time FitnessOk - so THIS is what it's like... Pam went on vacay, so this week I am teaching her classes plus mine... I'm living the life of a FULL-TIME FITNESS INSTRUCTOR this week! LOL Thank goodness I'm on school break, and I have been enjoying my time... Better run, gotta get ready to teach Zumba again!! See you in class!!! Have a fabulous MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!!!! May 03 Saturday Morning Zumba OK, I apologize to my YMCA peeps... I should've warned you guys that I got a sub last Sat! I was actually at a Zumba workshop in NC, learning how to be a better instructor for YOU! I heard Dona rocked out and almost killed you guys with her 'hip-hop' style ;) This morning we were missing half our class, but we had several newbies! WELCOME NEWBIES! Regulars: I missed you last week and was VERY happy to see you all this morning I was nervous about introducing you guys to brand new music and choreography but, you guys made me feel SO GREAT! I loved your energy and I'm so happy that you liked the new material =D HOORRAAYYY!!! Can't wait to JAM again on Saturday!!!!!! WOOOHOOOO P.S. I sweat more this morning than any other time... sorry if I over did it! LOL April 23 ZUMBA MOVES AT SHAWWOOHOOOOO - WE GOT OUR OWN SPACE AT SHAW!!! Staring in May, Zumba Fitness moves from the Fitness Center on base, to the Community Activities Center (CAC). That's right - we have our own place, where no one will bother us, or complain about how much FUN we're having anymore!!!
DITCH THE WORKOUT - JOIN THE PART-AY...
COMMUNITY CENTER @ SHAW - THURSDAYS - 5PM-6PM - FREE!!!
The room is HUGE (UPSTAIRS) & open to the Shaw family... Can't WAIT to ROCK THE HOUSE with all of you next week!!! You'll love all the natural sunlight in this room, especailly since the sun is out longer now =)
Bring a friend... special drawing & prizes for our new location celebration! See you there!
~Jumana New BookOk, so quite a few of you are "feeling" the effects of Zumba in your body but, are having a hard time making healthy food choices. As I mentioned in class, you can exercise every day and not lose weight, if you have poor eating habits or make unhealthy food choices. WELL - I just bought this new book that will change your life and the food choices you make FOREVER! It's called "EAT THIS - NOT THAT" by David Zinczenko.
It is AMAZING and a great reference for comparing foods & it shows you which choice is better for you. The book lists ALL major food restaraunts, that way - you can tote the book around in your bag or car and see which menu items are better for you. I couldn't believe some of the CALORIE information I found in this book. I eat at Subway a lot and, I was shocked to find out that one of my usual choices is NOT as healthy as I thought!! (Plus, you will see how restaraunts disguise the truth about what you're eating!)
Also, the book comapres SEVERAL supermarket buys, snacks, and even drinks! I highly recommend this book for anyone who cares about their health. (It's about $20 - but I got mine on Amazon for $9 + shipping!!)
Let me know what you think of it...
-Jumana April 03 Zumba @ Miss Libby's 4/2/08WOW - how much fun did we have last night at Miss Libby's?!?! I'd like to say thank you to Ana for bringing some friends... They obviously had a great time!
To our new folks: I congratulate you on living an active lifestyle thru Zumba Fitness. I hope you come back to Miss Libby's for more healthy fun ;)
See you Monday!
-Jumana March 24 Zumba growsZumba is G-R-O-W-I-N-G!! We had a great time at MISS LIBBY'S with St. Patty's Day - those who didn't wear green got pinched too! Zumba at SHAW FITNESS CENTER has the highest attendance of any aerobics class! And, YMCA Sat morning Zumba is getting bigger each week! March 14 Thursday night sub @ YMCAThis past Thursday, 3/13/08, I subbed for Selena at the YMCA. I normally teach on Sat only so people weren't used to seeing me... It was a BLAST! Such a huge crowd and the energy was amazing! I loved it and I know we all had a great workout =) Thanks for all the compliments, smiles, hugs, & handshakes - it was WELL worth it!! Hope to see you on Sat mornings too ;) March 04 New Zumba Music/MovesOk, seriously, I LOVE THE NEW ZUMBA MUSIC & ROUTINE!! The music is HOT and the moves make for a GREAT cardio workout! I listen to the music outside of Zumba - in my car, on my computer... it's AWESOME. We've been getting a super response ever since we introduced the new stuff this month as well. See you in class ;) Mucho Zumba-love! February 29 Zumba @ Shaw 2/28/08ZUMBA at Shaw was amazing this week! First of all, I was late - that has never happened to me and I felt SO bad for making everyone wait. However, I saw the true power of ZUMBA FITNESS...
When I walked in 20min late, there were over 15 people hanging out in the aerobics room waiting for class to start!!! I gave a quick safety briefing, welcomed the new first-timers, thanked everyone for waiting, and we were off to a brand-new start.
It was ALL new - the music, the moves, some people...I don't know if it was the crowd we had, or the new music, or fun new moves - but there was an overwhelming ENERGY that filled the room! With only 30 min to workout, we had a BLAST! I asked if people wanted one more song - or a cool down, and it was unanimous - we danced away the rest of the class.
THANK YOU ALL for coming to class, waiting, and having so much energy for ZUMBA! I'm so proud of everyone - it was the first time with the new music/moves and everybody did GREAT!
See you next week... February 23 Saturday Zumba @ the YMCAZumba was a blast, as usual, this morning at the YMCA! We had a great crowd and a surprising amount of energy for a gloomy Sat morning! WOOHOO!!! Glad you guys had as much fun as I did. Welcome to the new Zumba-goers!! =) Hope to see you all every week for a heart-pumping cardio workout! February 22 Thursday Night Zumba @ ShawWe had a great time last night during Zumba class at Shaw AFB! Decent turn-out and lots of energy in the room. I was surprirsed anyone showed up since the weather was so bad - so glad they did!
As I mentioned at the end of class, we will have all NEW music for the next several weeks - its even more hip and SUPER fun, believe me!
LET'S GET READY FOR SPRING 2008 BY GOING TO ZUMBA 2-3x/WEEK... You will be toned, and in better shape if you mix working out with a healthy eating plan as well. See you in class!
