ATTENTION ZUMBA LOVERS: MASTER CLASS ON AUGUST 13TH!

Attention ZUMBAFANS!! August 13th, there will be a Zumba Master Class at the Treasure Valley YMCA at 6pm. What is a Master class? Well, it's like a regular Zumba class, except you get the BEST instructors in the Treasure Valley sharing their own flavors with all of you!! Cost is $15.


Click or copy/paste the link to pay for Zumba Master Class attendance. By the way, the class is being hosted by our very own ZIN Jammer, Crystal Markham and another ZIN Jammer who is originally from Portland but is now living in Australia, Tiffany Ellis....A ZIN Jammer is a person who works directly with Zumba and shares their choreography with other Zumba Instructors within the ZUMBA INSTRUCTOR NETWORK. You have to be a ZIN member to participate in their ZIN Jam sessions.

This Master Class is for EVERYONE. Hope to see you there!!

GLOW PARTY COWGIRLS 2011




Here's one of the routines that will be done at the Cowgirls ZUMBA GLOW PARTY! Get practicing! You have a week! :) I will be learning this ASAP to bring to my classes because frankly, I need to add some more rhythms to enhance my own classes.. :) :)

The room is booked!

A fellow Zumba Instructor and I have officially made it a goal for both of us (and other Treasure Valley Zumba Instructors) to attend the 2012 Zumba Instructor Convention in Orlando, Florida!! Apparently this year's Convention was a huge hit because not only did 7,000+ Zumba Instructors from around the world attended but ALSO the hip-hop artist, PITBULL made a special appearance for the Friday night Fitness-Concert! Wyclef-Jean also was in attendance as well!!

What happens during a Zumba Convention you ask? Well, think of it as a Comic Book Convention...BUT WAY, WAY, WAY COOLER!!! People also tend to lose a few pounds while there too due to massive amounts of exercise! This convention is only open to Zumba Instructors who are a part of the Zumba Instructor Network (ZIN) and are in good standing. There, they can get extra specialty certifications such as Aqua Zumba, Zumba Toning, Zumbatomic (Zumba for kids, ages 12 and below), Zumba Gold (Zumba for the active, older adult or the de-conditioned individual), etc. There's a new specialty that they've showcased during the convention and that's called Sentao, which is a Zumba workout on a chair--very low to no impact on the joints! The convention also offers specialty "boosts" which are little flavor sessions people can go to if they already teach a certain specialty and just need new ideas and whatnot. Now, the convention isn't all work and no play, they DO have LOADS of fun there too, such as the Glimmer and Glow Party and as I mentioned earlier, the Fitness-concert where special guest appearances may happen!

As you can see, this is a beyond-awesome event and I must be in attendance next year with thousands of my closest friends in the Zumba Fitness world!! And that's why I've gone ahead and booked a room at the most coveted event in a Zumba Instructor's fitness career...
