A session of Zumba, a cardio-dance routine, can feel like a trip to the nightclub of a cruise ship, where a well-toned crew member teaches you to wiggle your hips and do the fast footwork for a mix of dance styles to the thump of loud music. While Zumba crowds are not plied with alcohol, people often throw away inhibitions — they pump their arms, applaud, let out “yeahs” — as they work out.

Ann Marie has enjoyed being a Zumba and Jazzercise student for years, and loves to dance. She has been hooked since her first class. Zumba combines dancing, rigorous aerobic activity, and a fun-factor that encourages great camaraderie among students and instructors. She calls us all “fitness addicts” at the Fitness Attic because we all prioritize good health and a commitment to exercise and overall well-being. For Ann Marie and the rest of our staff the positive, high energy workout is addictive and fun. That is the main reason she became a Zumba instructor, and it is an honor to have her as part of the Fitness Attic family.
