*NEW* AQUA ZUMBA CLASSES Butterfield Park District & Lombard Park District

/2 Comments/in , /by

 

Known as the Zumba® “pool party,” the Aqua Zumba program gives new meaning to the idea of an invigorating workout.  Splashing, stretching, twisting, even shouting, laughing, hooting and hollering are often heard during an Aqua Zumba class.  Integrating the Zumba formula and philosophy with traditional aqua fitness disciplines, the Aqua Zumba class blends it all together into a safe, challenging, water-based workout that’s cardio-conditioning, body-toning, and most of all, exhilarating beyond belief.  This class is appropriate for all fitness levels and requires no swimming or dancing skills. Join the party without the impact!

  • Get enough sleep.
  • Protect yourself from injuries at work, home or play.
  • Get at least 30 minutes of physical activity most days.
