I love working out, but this past year Zumba has been my exercise of choice, and I try to go 3 days a week. Mariah loves going with me too, but there is only 1 family class a week at our community center that she can attend with me until she turns 15. Last month I heard that 2 of my instructors were hosting a Zumba party this past Saturday to help restock our local food pantry. For 5 food items donated, you got into the party for free. And kids could come too! Sounded like a deal to me! So, I immediately took to asking my family and friends if they would like to come with us, and got no bites! I am now realizing that I have a bunch of lazy people in my circle of family and friends. No matter, because Mariah was excited to go. Allison, on the other hand, had to be bribed with the treats the vendors were offering at the event.
Which were way overpriced, but whatever keeps them happy, right?
The party was 3 hours long. We lasted an hour and a half before calling it quits.
Allison wasn't thrilled I was taking pics, and decided to retaliate and sneak some pictures of us shaking it on the floor.
Since we donated more food items than requested for entry to the party, we were entered into a raffle. We ended up winning a $50 gift card to one of the cosmetics vendors! I'd say the party was a success!
Do you like to Zumba? If not, what do you like to do for fitness?
