I have had interest in putting on another Zumba Gold Fitness Class on a Tuesday morning. Please leave a note in class for Felicity or email me r.mardon@xtra.co.nz if you are interested.

Events For Term 1

Cycle or walk to Bayview along Rotary pathway. For those of us who do not wish to cycle, there will be an option to walk from Westshore or from where ever you feel comfortable walking from. Cyclists will go at there own pace from the pool car park on Marine Parade. Park where you feel comfortable and cycle from where you feel comfortable. There are no hard and fast rules. I will be leaving the Pools car park at 11am. I know some of you are just going to meet us at Snapper Park Motor Camp for lunch. There is a cafe there and I will let them know to expect our numbers. I haven’t confirmed which Tuesday because I am weather watching (10 day forecast)
At this stage it looks like Tuesday 3rd April.

Lunch at Ten Twenty Four (1024 Pakowhai Road) Tuesday 6th March 12pm

Please put your name on the list in class if you would like to go.

Happy New Year

I hope this year finds you fit and well and I hope you have had a lovely Christmas and New Year.

I have had a great break and really need to get into some dancing. I don’t feel like myself. I think I need you all to give me a boost up. I am ready to get straight back into exercising, so I hope you are up to it.

• We got absolutely drenched at the Beat Girls last weekend. Only Joy, Sue Bird, Jude and I braved it out and did a little (alot) of ‘Dancing in the Rain’. It was a very relaxed way of getting together and easing ourselves back into dancing. Here are a couple of photos.

Zumba Christmas Lunch at Pernel 2011

Great to be back. It was so good to see everyone. What a great turn out. Especially as it was so hot. I know most of us were a little bit nervous, but you all did so well.
Some of us went for morning tea afterwards and I think we should all do this in a couple of weeks when everyone is back.

As per above Tuesday 6 March 12pm (Ten Twenty Four – Pakowhai Road)

It is important to keep up your water intake especially as it is getting hotter. You need to be hydrated before, during and after class. We can lose up to 500ml of water in an hour of exercise.
