Here are three tips to keeping your fitness routine over the holiday break

1. Stick with a Routine you Love

When I’m not doing Zumba I engage other activies that I enjoy or find challenging. It is really important to continue with your regular workout schedule (be flexible enough so you don’t give up if you miss a day), but what is even more important is to find something you enjoy and make time for it every day.

Here are a few workouts that I do on my “days off”

• Workout Videos: Jillian Michaels, Tae Bo, etc
• Running
• Walking (you have to really work hard on your walks though)
• Snowshoeing
• X-country skiing

2. Save Treats for Special Occasions

Holidays is one of those times that you can’t avoid a treat once in a while. Go for it!

But save those guilty pleasures for the special occasions during this season. It is important to continue keeping track of day-to-day intake or things can really fly out of hand (I know from experience…)

Here are a few treats that somehow seem to be ignored in calorie counts:

• Drinks!! All beverages (especially alcohol, pop, sweetened “juice/tea,” eggnog!) are so sneaky, you may want to commit to drinking only water (or tea/coffee) when you’re not at a party.
• Tasting while cooking (every nibble of xmas cookies counts)
• Free samples at Cherry Republic

3. Balance your Daily Diet

I love Zumba Toning so much and I think more people need to see what it’s all about, so next Thursday, September 22 will be a FREE demo class for anyone who wants to try it out!

So if you’ve been to Toning before or not, this is an awesome chance to come on out with a friend and see how great it is!

See you then!

We’re starting something new this fall at Lake Ann United Methodist. I’ll be doing back-to-back classes on Thursday nights!! Zumba at 6:00 followed by Zumba Toning at 7:15!

These classes at Lake Ann are offered at another AMAZING deal!  Only $40 for the entire 9-week session!! (drop ins are welcome as always for the very reasonable $6)

CHECK IT OUT!

I’m offering a FREE TONING class for the first week of the session. The perfect chance for you and your friends to see what you’ve been missing!

I’ve been so busy and I know you have too. Let’s synchronize our calendars – here’s the schedule for the next couple weeks and just want everyone to know we’re going to take August off so that we can build tons of anticipation for new classes in September!

This Week – July 17-23

• No class Monday (I’m recovering from a huge running event this past weekend)
• Thursday: Zumba Toning at Lake Ann United Methodist

Next Week – July 24-30

• Monday: Zumba Fitness at LAUM 7pm
• Thursday: Zumba Toning at LAUM 6pm

No Classes in August

We’re going to take the month of August off this summer. Stay connected on Facebook so that you don’t miss any exciting announcements coming up about September and awesome new Zumba classes this fall.

I know a lot of you have missed coming to class because you’re doing your best to soak in every inch of sunshine before it’s gone… but don’t miss out on these last few chances to Zumba!! Bring your out-of-town friends along, they’ll love it!

I think we’ve got it!

Monday nights are moving to Lake Ann United Methodist. Class will be at 7pm every Monday – so don’t miss it!

This should help everyone since all my classes right now are at LAUM – Zumba on Mondays at 7 and Zumba Toning on Thursdays at 6.

There is no registration for this class… it is just the regular $6 drop-in fee. You can save a ton by purchasing one of my punch cards though! I’ll have them available at class for those of you who like saving money

See you this Monday (June 6) for Zumba Fitness at Lake Ann United Methodist!

It always makes me sad to hear that someone is missing class because of finances though, so here are few ways that you can spend even less cash to get your Zumba fix each week.

1. Sign up for the Entire Session

Every so often I offer a session that lasts a specific number of weeks at a discount price. For example, tonight starts a 4 week session at Westwoods Elementary. Show up tonight to register for the entire 4 weeks at at the unbeatable price of only $20!

2. Traverse City Zumba Punch Cards

An even better deal is to purchase one of my 10- or 20-punch cards. Come to class. Get a punch. Save 20%.

You can almost hear a “cha-ching!” every time you punch that card because you know you just saved big time. This is a great option for those that are afraid to sign up for an entire session because you might miss a class. With the TC Zumba punch card you only pay for the classes you attend.

3. Bike to Class

Last summer I was riding my bike to class at Lake Ann United Methodist. Not only did this provide another fun way to burn calories, I can’t think of an easier way to save money right now than by avoiding gasoline altogether!

Try riding your bike to the four sessions at Westwoods. Even if it’s just a few miles you’ll save enough on gas money to try my Zumba Toning class on Thursday!

Get inspired by these amazing atheletes!

I spent a lot of years doing workouts like this when I played soccer… I love that game, but Zumba is a heckuva lot more fun than running suicides!!

Ditch the workout, join the party!

(Under Armour rocks by the way. I highly recommend it.)
