BURST: ZUMBA TO A SEXY BODY: SUPERSIZE THE SOUL

ZUMBA QUEEN ALICIA

Laughter is a rapeutic exercise.... and Zumba is exercise that will make you belly laugh! Whether you're stressed, frustrated or mad about life... you'll laugh, and have fun! I ventured across town, all of a half mile, over to Group Fit Hood River- next to Snap Fitness- over near Pizzacato. I went behind the scenes with the beautiful and fit Beth Turner, one of three owners of Group Fit HR... and in my quest to find just plain fun fitness without the commitment of contracts and over paying for equipment I'll pretend to use, but well knowingly won't - found it... just classes! Clearly not just classes though... Zumba, Bollywood, Hip Hop, Stretch, Step, Tone, even Pilates and Power Yoga for you guru's out there. It was there I was able to shed light on the muses behind my goals, and Zumba'd myself into a hot bold sexy body... well the beginning of my dreamy image. Alicia Beckman- man can she move, jiggle and shake body parts I never knew exsisted... I do now! I'm hooked. Alicia was filled with energy that was bound to cause some quakes in the Gorge. I laughed hard looking around, and at me- all the expressions and postures, some good at this, and well some... picture Liz Lemon from 30 Rock (Tina Fey as we know her)... but if you can't dance it doesn't matter, you just have to move your whole body. The moves and music's anywhere from Salsa, Cumbia, Merengue, Rumba, Mambo, Belly Dance, Flamenco, Samba, Tango, Reggatone and Hip Hop of course. This is one of those times, well...
