Holidays are Coming and so is vacation time!!!!

Make sure you take time out to exercise during the holidays!! Your family will like you better and you will feel better about eating all of the goodies!!  Our last class for December is the 19th (Wednesday).  WE WILL BE BACK ON JANUARY 2ND (Wednesday)!!!

Want something new?

Ready to push yourself a little more?  On Monday, November 19th I am going to teach a toning/endurance mini class after our Zumba class.  It will last about 15 minutes.  We will be using bands (provided) and you will need to bring your mat.  This is a good way to kick up your metabolism for the holidays!  This class is free.

Car accident

Some of you are aware that I was in a car accident.  Here are some pics of our sad van.

Go Rocio Go!

Having fun with Paige!

Cool moves Liz!

We had so much fun dancing our night away!  We were sad to say goodbye to Rocio and it was fun to see old friends like Liz.  Our other guest instructor was Paige, who is also leaving at the end of this month. 

No Class Wednesday, September 26th, because of Fundraiser on the 28th!!!

We won't have class on Wednesday, but come and have fun at our 2 HOUR Fundraiser on Friday, September 28th from 7-9 pm.  It is $5 without a punchcard and $2 with a punchcard and 1 punch.  Donations are excepted as well.  This fundraiser is for a family in Saratoga Springs that needs money for the dad's liver transplant.  We will have 4 different instructors and lots of fun.  See you there!!!

Fundraiser Friday, September 28th

Rocio Holker is moving!!!! So we wanted to do a big bash before she moved.  In true Zumba style we wanted to make it a fundraiser as well for a family that needs help (more information coming).  It will be Friday night, September 28th at Ultimate Dance Etc. 7-9 pm.  The cost will be $5 or if you have a punch card, it will be one punch and $2.  Rocio, myself, Paige Freestone, and Liz Darelli will be teaching.  We are so excited.  Because of this we will not have class on September 26th (Wednesday).

Lost Keys!!

On the last class in Lehi (12/21) Tara left her keys on the desk where we signed in.  Anyone see them?  When we left class, they were gone. Please let us know if you find them.  We already called the studio and they can't find them either.
