insider

i'm currently on a zumba high. similar to a runners high, except zumba. :) i've been wanting to share the details of what's going on with my zumba certification and tonight is the perfect night for just that. the actual certification class isn't until july 31st. it is an all day class, and i'm really looking forward to it. i know it will be a lot of hard work, and a lot of fun. a couple of weeks ago i spoke to emily (the group fitness director) and let her know that i was officially signed up to become certified and she invited me to participate at some auditions they were having tonight. so tonight i attended as about 7 instructors tried out to become new lifetime fitness instructors. emily introduced me to the group as a "super member" of the club, and that it is me they need to impress because i'm the member that will be actually attending these classes. if felt awesome to be involved with the whole process. get to observe and be an insider. i'm really excited to see where all of this will lead me. it is all still so foreign. that i have this whole circle of friends from the gym. it truly is like a whole other life. a whole new life that i have created for myself. it's all so new. so in addition to my 60 minute zumba class i did an additional 30 to 45 minutes but i didn't keep my heart rate up consistently so that's not included in my workout.

Ha, cool! You are going to love this! I am so excited for you. I would love to take your class, however I don't think dance classes work for me. I get so confused. Maybe you could give me one move and I could do that for the entire hour :).
