SPRING BREAK

Class Updates

Welcome to SPRING

Yay!  Bring on the warmer weather.

It's great to see some familiar faces returning to class now that we are over the coldest time of the year.  Classes at Camden AH&I Hall are not yet at capacity.  Hesitate no more and get yourself to class and shake off those extra calories that you have consumed over the winter.

In October, I will be starting an Aqua Zumba class - super great for anyone needing to really shift those kilo's, for pregnant woman or for people with knee/ankle/hip problems.  It is great because the water supports your weight making it LOW IMPACT and the resistance from the water makes it a super calorie burning, toning workout.  So watch this space - details announced soon!

We will be having a break from classes over the September/October school holiday period as I will be making my annual dance tour to the USA.  I am excited to be going to some great Zumba, Dance and Fitness classes!  We will break from September 23 - October 9.  When I get back - I look forward to sharing all my new found music and moves with you.  I will be regularly posting on my facebook and also on my US Adventure blog while I am away - so you can come on a virtual holiday with me. :)

Anyway..............see you at the fundraising class this arvo at Camden!

SPRING INTO SPRING CLASS SUPER PASS

For the month of August I am offering a Super Pass for all you Super Zumbreros so you can really get yourself ready for the swimwear season!  For the cost of $100 you can come to as many of my Zumba® Fitness classes that you can fit in for the entire month of August.  That's right - you read it correctly - as many classes as you like for $100.  That's $270 worth of classes for just $100.

This pass is only valid for the month of August and is non-refundable and non-transferable.  Wait no longer - passes available at classes all next week!

ZUMBA GETS RESULTS!

What some of my Zumbrero's are saying:

"After 2 sessions of zumba this week alone I have lost 1cm off my thighs, bum and arms. And 2cm off my hips. Still more to go but feeling fabulous."

"Went to the doctor for my regular check up and my cholesterol has dropped from 6.9 to 5.9! Doctor is extremely happy and the only change I have made is increasing my Zumba classes from 1 class per week to 2 classes per week."

"Bought 3 new pairs of jeans before I discovered Zumba - I have only been attending once a week for about 6 weeks and none of the new pairs fit - they are all falling down!"

"Had my old jeans hiding in the cupboard hoping that one day they would fit again - 6 months of Zumba twice a week and BRAVO - the jeans fit!"

ZUMBA Classes over the school holiday.

Hi Everyone,

During this holiday break all ZUMBA® classes will run as usual except for Friday night at Robert Townson PS in Raby.

This Friday will be the last class in Raby until class resumes in August.

It has been great to see so many of you at classes over the May/June cold snap.  I know that it really pays off coming in the cold - because you burn the extra calories as your body is working hard just to keep you warm and you get the satisfaction of looking great in your bikini on the first warm weekend in the beach season (instead of realising that you need to do something about it when you try to put the swimwear on!).

Thanks for your energy and your smiles!

Miss Sarah
:)

Don't let the cold weather get you down......

Everyone knows that it is just this initial getting from the house to the car that is the problem.  Once you arrive at class (whether it is dance or Zumba®) I promise that you will be warm in no time!

Some strategies to help you stay motivated.......

- set yourself a target for the number of classes that you must attend each week; buy yourself a 10 class card and set yourself a best before date

- reward yourself when you do make it to your set number of classes each week; give yourself that glass of wine, the chocolate treat or the slice of cake (or the beer for all you beer lovers)

- set yourself a weight loss, body shaping or fitness target.  If you need help with this - come and talk to me after class!

- think about the little treat you can have at the end of the week if you did maintain your 4 classes per week!

- think about how HOT you will look in your bikini on Sept 5 when it is 30 degrees and the first beach day for the season!

Do not put off until tomorrow what you can do today.......

Look forward to seeing all your smiling faces.

Latest news that will be in an email near you sooner than you think!

Hi there Zumbreros!

I hope this news update finds you well.  There are some exciting things underway at your local Zumba® Fitness classes and I hope you find this short info bulletin useful!

MONDAY & THURSDAY Classes are moving house!

Thats right Zumbreros - you asked for space and I am pleased to say that I have been able to deliver!  I know a number of you felt that the hall at Camden was a little squashy at times so we are moving to the AH&I Hall, Argyle Street, Camden.  This is a great venue, with loads of space for everyone to really move and with a high stage so that you can easily see all the moves that are being demonstrated.

This move is effective on May 23.  It would be awesome to see you all there on Monday night shaking those Zumba® moves with me!  There will be plenty of additional room to really Zumba® yourself into shape.

Details are as follows:

Days: Monday & Thursday

Time: 7:30pm

Location: AH&I Hall (Camden Show Society Hall), Argyle Street Camden.  Next door to the Crown Hotel!

A21 Campaign Fundraiser

This Saturday May 21, 2011 - 5pm -6pm. 

I will be running a Zumba® class to support the A21 Campaign at Picton.  Bring your friends and sweat for a cause.  Perfect chance to visit the historic George IV Pub afterwards for a nice dinner!

What has your Zumba instructor been up to..........

Well I think that March/April were the party months for Zumba® in Australia! 

White Party

What a night!  We just Zumbared ourselves crazy.  So much fun!

Aqua Training

Don't we all look attractive after a day of training!  hahahaha!  Exhausted!

Beto Masterclass in Melbourne

Can you find me in this pic?!?  I am there partying with 1000 other Zumbreros with Zumba creator himself Beto Perez.  What a fantastic night!

Beto class in Martin Place

Thanks to Fitness First for providing Sydneysiders with the opportunity to Zumba® with Beto in Martin Place free of charge!

Nathan Blake Masterclass in St Helens Park

Thanks to my friend Zumba with Tracy we were lucky enough to have Mr Nathan Blake from New York City come out to St Helens Park for a masterclass.  It was great to see some of the Zumbreros from both the Camden and Raby classes come over to St Helens Park and join in the Zumba® fun!

If you feel like getting out and about, on Friday May 27, 2011 there will be a large Zumba® party at a nightclub in Potts Point. 

Regular Classes each week

Don't forget each week classes are run to the following timetable.  All classes are only $10 each or you can grab a 10 class pass for just $80.  Watch out for the 10 class pass SUPER special that will be coming to a class near you really soon!

Timetable is as follows:

Monday

7:30pm - AH&I Hall, Argyle St Camden (next to the Crown Hotel)

Tuesday

9:30am - Razzle Dazzle Dance Studio, 

10/15 MacPherson Road Smeaton Grange

Lastly!

Don't let the cold wether intimidate you!  Whether you are Zumbaring to lose weight, improve your fitness, add diversity to your training regime or just for fun - real results come from consistent regular attendance.  Nothing like a Zumba® workout to put a smile on your face and warm you up over the colder months of the year!

If you have not yet come to Zumba® with me this year, it is never too late to start.  Come and check out the new routines. Of course some of your old favourites also make it into the playlist. :)

Thank you all for your loyalty and for making my job so much fun!

See you all at class.
