Years ago, in a former life, I was a dancer. I was pretty good. Good enough for a few scholarships.
Then I became a dance teacher. I thought I was pretty good.
Somewhere along the line, I became a yoga and pilates instructor.
I have come back to my roots!
I now teach something called Zumba, which is an aerobic, dance class class, based on latin moves and music. It's an intense workout, but it is so much fun!
I teach 4 classes a week, and each class is a blast. The classes I teach at the YMCA average about 60 people in each, which is the biggest class the Y offers. The members can't get enough of it!
And it's great when I get compliments, not that I search for them, but I love getting them. It just adds to my confidence. The latest one came from a member to my supervisor: "man, that girl can teach!"
So here I am in the nerdy microphone (I hate wearing those things). Pete jumped in the class and took pictures, but I couldn't get him to take the class. Something about "his hips don't move like that...."

That sounds so fun! They actually did a story on the news here a few days ago about a zumba teacher here in SLC.. makes me want to try!
Now how about a video Pam...(I'm being serious)
My hips WANT to move like that but I have a serious lack of core muscle right now. Zumba=side ache/great ab workout.
Look at you go! I would love to do something like that... once I find a place to stash my two boys!
How fun! I'll bet zumba is a great workout! Good job. Oh, I love the sexy red shoes!
It is great to see you in front of a class again!!! Shelby is trying out for Cardinelles next week and I believe her love of dance was formed by you! :)
