Join us for these fun and lively classes taught by experienced professionals. If you love rhythm (or even if you are a little rhythm challenged) Zumba is for you!  Zumba fuses Latin rhythms and easy to follow moves to create a dynamic workout system that will blow you away. The goal is simple: to work out, to love working out, and to stick with it! Interval training with fast & slow rhythms & resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat. ZUMBA TONING With Christine French Tuesdays: 1/7, 1/14, 1/21, 1/28, 2/4, 2/11, (NO 2/18), 2/25, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, (NO 3/25), 4/1, 4/8, 4/15 Time: 6:30 - 7:30pm Love Zumba but want to try something a little different?

And, because it’s Zumba, it’s fun! You will find that adding resistance with light weights tones and sculpts specific muscle groups, such as your arms, core and lower body. Throw in high energy, upbeat music and you have a great night that helps get your body looking and feeling awesome!

Then, working as a team, they’ll slice, dice, peel, measure, and cook until they’ve prepared the finished dish. Class closes with an opportunity to taste the result of their hard work. Students receive a printed recipe card and the focal ingredient - or a sample of the finished dish - so they can show off what they learned! Even the mostreluctant eaters enjoy Kids’ Test Kitchen, where participation is encouraged, and the choice to taste is always one’s own. Lessons are planned to celebrate seasonal produce, whole grains, and legumes.Kids have food allergies, but they shouldn’t miss out on the fun. We know allergies and can work around them, making sure that everyone is havingfun and staying safe.*Families who have students with allergies or other necessary dietary modifications will be required to complete our diet modification formbefore the first class.Location: Town Hall Multipurpose Room

Join us for these fun and lively classes taught by experienced professionals. If you love rhythm (or even if you are a little rhythm challenged) Zumba is for you!  Zumba fuses Latin rhythms and easy to follow moves to create a dynamic workout system that will blow you away. The goal is simple: to work out, to love working out, and to stick with it! Interval training with fast & slow rhythms & resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat. ZUMBA TONING With Christine French Tuesdays: 1/7, 1/14, 1/21, 1/28, 2/4, 2/11, (NO 2/18), 2/25, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, (NO 3/25), 4/1, 4/8, 4/15 Time: 6:30 - 7:30pm Love Zumba but want to try something a little different? This fun and energetic class takes traditional Zumba moves and adds the challenge of resistance by adding light weights, resulting in a higher calorie burn than strength training alone and offering a superb opportunity for cardiovascular exercise. And, because it’s Zumba, it’s fun! You will find that adding resistance with light weights tones and sculpts specific muscle groups, such as your arms, core and lower body. Throw in high energy, upbeat music and you have a great night that helps get your body looking and feeling awesome!

The goal is simple: to work out, to love working out, and to stick with it! Interval training with fast & slow rhythms & resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat. ZUMBA TONING With Christine French Tuesdays: 1/7, 1/14, 1/21, 1/28, 2/4, 2/11, (NO 2/18), 2/25, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, (NO 3/25), 4/1, 4/8, 4/15 Time: 6:30 - 7:30pm Love Zumba but want to try something a little different? This fun and energetic class takes traditional Zumba moves and adds the challenge of resistance by adding light weights, resulting in a higher calorie burn than strength training alone and offering a superb opportunity for cardiovascular exercise. And, because it’s Zumba, it’s fun! You will find that adding resistance with light weights tones and sculpts specific muscle groups, such as your arms, core and lower body. Throw in high energy, upbeat music and you have a great night that helps get your body looking and feeling awesome!

Join us for these fun and lively classes taught by experienced professionals. If you love rhythm (or even if you are a little rhythm challenged) Zumba is for you!  Zumba fuses Latin rhythms and easy to follow moves to create a dynamic workout system that will blow you away. The goal is simple: to work out, to love working out, and to stick with it! Interval training with fast & slow rhythms & resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat. ZUMBA TONING With Christine French Tuesdays: 1/7, 1/14, 1/21, 1/28, 2/4, 2/11, (NO 2/18), 2/25, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, (NO 3/25), 4/1, 4/8, 4/15 Time: 6:30 - 7:30pm Love Zumba but want to try something a little different? This fun and energetic class takes traditional Zumba moves and adds the challenge of resistance by adding light weights, resulting in a higher calorie burn than strength training alone and offering a superb opportunity for cardiovascular exercise. And, because it’s Zumba, it’s fun! You will find that adding resistance with light weights tones and sculpts specific muscle groups, such as your arms, core and lower body. Throw in high energy, upbeat music and you have a great night that helps get your body looking and feeling awesome!

Join us for these fun and lively classes taught by experienced professionals. If you love rhythm (or even if you are a little rhythm challenged) Zumba is for you!  Zumba fuses Latin rhythms and easy to follow moves to create a dynamic workout system that will blow you away. The goal is simple: to work out, to love working out, and to stick with it! Interval training with fast & slow rhythms & resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat. ZUMBA TONING With Christine French Tuesdays: 1/7, 1/14, 1/21, 1/28, 2/4, 2/11, (NO 2/18), 2/25, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, (NO 3/25), 4/1, 4/8, 4/15 Time: 6:30 - 7:30pm Love Zumba but want to try something a little different? This fun and energetic class takes traditional Zumba moves and adds the challenge of resistance by adding light weights, resulting in a higher calorie burn than strength training alone and offering a superb opportunity for cardiovascular exercise. And, because it’s Zumba, it’s fun! You will find that adding resistance with light weights tones and sculpts specific muscle groups, such as your arms, core and lower body. Throw in high energy, upbeat music and you have a great night that helps get your body looking and feeling awesome!

Join Julia Klebanov to experience the healing powers of sound! What is a sound bath, you ask? This is a deeply restorative sound-based meditation practice with amazing benefits for the brain and body. Come, lie down and rest while you tune into your breath and the vibrations from a variety of meditative instruments, including crystal singing bowls, RAV drum, frame drum, rattle, Himalayan bowls, and chimes. As you sink into a deep state of rest and relaxation, the vibration is working on your body to promote healing. Some potential benefits from sound baths include improved sleep quality, lymphatic detox, relaxed muscles, brain stimulation, nervous system regulation, and reduced pain levels. This is a wonderfully supportive treatment for anyone struggling with chronic mental or physical health issues. If you are pregnant, have a pacemaker, or suffer from sound-triggered epilepsy, please consult your doctor before attending. Come experience this powerful healing modality for yourself!The March Session Date is changing and will not run on 3/11. We will update this and open registration as soon as we know the new date.

Interval training with fast & slow rhythms & resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat. ZUMBA TONING With Christine French Tuesdays: 1/7, 1/14, 1/21, 1/28, 2/4, 2/11, (NO 2/18), 2/25, 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, (NO 3/25), 4/1, 4/8, 4/15 Time: 6:30 - 7:30pm Love Zumba but want to try something a little different?

And, because it’s Zumba, it’s fun! You will find that adding resistance with light weights tones and sculpts specific muscle groups, such as your arms, core and lower body.

And, because it’s Zumba, it’s fun! You will find that adding resistance with light weights tones and sculpts specific muscle groups, such as your arms, core and lower body.
