A New Adventure...ZUMBA®

Well, it has been a while since I posted last but I have some very exciting news!! I am officially a LICENSED ZUMBA® INSTRUCTOR!!! YAY!!!  I am sooo excited! 

Last weekend I went to the Basic 1 training.  It was from 8am to 5:30pm!! Yes, that's right all day!  My ZES, Zumba® Education Specialist, was Loretta Bates! Can I just say how AMAZING she is?!! Not only is she beautiful, can dance, and a great teacher but she is truly a role model for Zumba®.  She pushes you but making you have fun at the same time! At the end of the day I walked away with so much...technique, some new friends, my license, and my whole body was sore!! But it was worth it! Here are a couple of pics that we took at the end of the training!


Since getting licensed, I have been working daily on choreography and at the point I have all the dances for my class almost down pat.  I'm a little nervous that I will mess up but I just need to jump on in! 

Now for the mini problem...I know what time my classes will be but finding a "for sure" place is a little bit harder.  Hopefully, I will get everything worked out by tomorrow and I will be able to start on Wednesday! 

Wish me luck!!
