CELEBRATING my circus act last night...CLOWNING around

Last evening was like a circus and a nursery rhyme all wrapped into one...

I joined my dear friend, Linz, at a Zumba class and it was a riot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I have no rhythm and yet I have never had so much fun making up dance moves with 200 other ladies and a couple men.  What an empowering hour of celebrating ladies and gents of all sizes and ages coming together to smile, feel great and shake the booty. 

And much to my delight, Dana was there who owns the local Lazy Daisy Cottage quilt shop, the lead vocalist at my church choir and 2 lovely ladies from the local music shop.  I could have talked the whole hour but nope, got down to it....

And as I was leaving a woman came up and said, "I admire that you would raise your hand when asked who are the newcomers to the class?  Took me a 5 sessions to get the moves so keep coming!"  This was an exercise class like I had never experienced....Deep inside I want to make leg warmers for Tuesday's class :) to go with my mitered striped leotard...just kidding,,,kinda.

Happy Friday and may you have a moment today that if so inclined, you break out in song or do a jive!!!!  And maybe put on that dance costume from when you were 12....Couldn't resist J!

Zumba was so much fun. We had a woman named Stephanie teach and her body moved in ways mine doesn't, but it's so much fun trying and talking and most importantly laughing. It's jogging for you insides you know.
