Ditch the Workout, Join the Party

Zumba prides itself on being a "Latin-inspired, calorie-burning, dance fitness-party."  Their slogan, "Ditch the workout, join the party," has been embraced by over 12 million people who have found a sense of fun in exercise.

At the Wells County YMCA, it is clear to see that sense of fun, as well as community, in our Zumba classes.  If you are interested in Zumba, but not quite sure what it entails, check out the following video, made by our very own instructor, Rochelle, along with some of her regular participants:

Featured members:  Tara Anderson, Bernice Anderson and Kathy Koby

featured staff members:  Terry Biberstine and Rochelle Alberding

Come check out the party for yourself during one of the following times:

Monday:  5:30 - 6:30 PM

Tuesday:  9:30 - 10:30 AM and 4:30 - 5:30 PM (beginner)

Wednesday:  5:30 - 6:30 PM

Thursday:  9:30 - 10:30 AM

Saturday:  9:00 - 10:00 AM

In good health,

Summer Sizzler
