 Growing
up I was always active, but never really exercised. Let's face it, who
"likes" to exercise? However, I did love to dance...not ballet or tap,
I am talking at a party, a wedding, in my living room...you know...After having two children, now ages 6 and 4, and trying to lose those last 25 pounds that seem to stick forever, I started to go to an exercise class called "Zumba®." What could this be? Everyone in the class looked like they were having so much fun. C'mon, how could it be fun?? Could I really get in there and do that? The music was amazing, everyone was smiling, and I thought, let me just give it a try.... Well, I was hooked. Really hooked! I started going two times a week and actually looked forward to exercising! Little by little...week by week, I found myself having more energy, getting thinner, stronger, and happier! I even found myself singing songs in other languages that I wasn't even sure I knew the words to...
I have been teaching classes for four years now, three times a week and enjoying every minute of it. I know it's hard to find time to exercise, this is why I, myself, can only teach three times a week. I am a middle school teacher on Long Island, a mother, and a wife--and I had my third child in November 2009; a baby boy! Three kids under the age of 7 makes life hectic! Let's face it, it's hard to make time for ourselves. But I promise you, you will blink and the class will be over. You will be hooked, like I was, and want to come back again and again. I have come to know the nicest group of people in my classes. They are always nervous in the beginning and I tell them that no one is watching them. We are all supportive of each other. We laugh, we dance, we let off steam from the day, and we even socialize from time to time. Our class is made up of moms, teachers, nurses, retirees, dads (YES...men too!!), college students, everyone from every walk of life... So make 2012 your time to shine...join me and together we can make this your best year yet~ NEW YEAR~NEW YOU! |
