Meet our beautiful Sweat Sista Liz who is expecting a new member of the Fun Fitness family (a boy!) in May 2015. Three years ago Liz made a New Years resolution to get in shape and joined a local gym that had different fitness class offerings. Zumba was the class choice and Deirdre was the instructor. “From the very first class I found Dees energy to be infectious and I really appreciated how she learned my name right away. Friday quickly became my favorite night of the week because of her class.” “So many times I made the resolution to lose weight, get in shape and feel better about myself but I always gave up after a couple months and would later regret not getting the results I wanted. Going to Zumba is like having a girls night out every class. I am shy and dont like to dance in front of people, but having Dee to guide me makes me feel confident and it’s a ton of fun. Zumba class has helped me build muscle tone, drop a full pant size for the past three years (almost two when you figure the big ones were getting tight!) and just feel better about myself. I no longer rummage for clothes that make me not feel fat. Zumba has kept me motivated and become a healthier person. I do branch out and try other types of workouts, but I always come back to Zumba.” Since becoming pregnant Liz continues to attend class to keep her and her baby healthy. “Being pregnant makes me feel very tired, but going to Zumba gives me more energy and I always feel better after going. The emotional support from the wonderful women who are part of the class is a huge bonus!! I learned to modify my workouts by keeping them very low impact. I do not jump at all, but try to compensate by using bigger arm movements. Dee often models low impact options, which helps me to know what to do as an alternative.” Liz, you are such a bright light in our class and we’re so blessed to have you as a key member of the Fun Fitness family. We can’t wait to meet Baby Vocke in May and celebrate all the wonderful moments that are ahead for you and your family. Zumba on…….
