Way to Go Judy!

This pretty lady, Judy Sheppard, has lost 15 lbs in 10 weeks.  She started taking Zumba in Archer City and is following a low sodium diet.  You can't go wrong with that combination.  Congrats Judy.  You are so AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

January- Employee of the Month-YMCA

Congrats to Sandra, employee of month for January!  Sandra teaches in the evenings on Tues./ Thurs. at 5:45 and alternates on Friday evenings at 5:30 and Saturday mornings at 9:00 a.m.  You have to try one of her classes if you have not already!  She will work every muscle you have and lead you through some great dances with intense cardio exercise.  I love Sandra because she is never scared to try anything.  She just jumps right in with an open mind and positive spirit.  And of course, she can shake it like nobody's business.

Zumba Class

Baby Weight

Today I wanted to share my personal success story.  It's not bragging, but my way of letting you know that I too struggle, and it does not come easy for many of us.  My youngest daughter is 8 months old, and as of today, I have lost a total of 50 lbs since giving birth.  I am a nursing mother, so I have to consume extra calories.  Better stated, I do NOT eat like a bird.  I love food, and I don't always make good decisions.  However, I don't give up just because I have a bad day.  I just start fresh the next day.  Above all, I exercise 5-6 days a week, and of course, it's doing ZUMBA!!!!  I also do Yoga at home, but my cardio comes from Zumba. 

I am proof it can be done with 3 small children and a very busy life.  You get out of it what you put into it. So give it your all when you take any fitness class or exercise routine in general.  It you do it half way, expect mediocre results.  Above all, find something you ENJOY doing.  If it's not zumba, try something else.  Find what you love to do, then give it 100%.

ZUMBATHON 2010

MARCH 27th:  2-5
YMCA BBB
Wichita Falls, TX

This will be our 3rd Zumbathon to host at the YMCA.  We have packed the gym each and every time.  Last year, we had groups of ladies wear matching shirts to represent their school or work.  It was AMAZING.  All proceeds go to our Partners With Youth Campaign, which ensures that no child is EVER turned away due to the inability to pay.  Mark your calendar for a great cause and some CRAZY FUN!!!
Another way you can help support our campaign is to "Buy a Y."  Please call 761-1000 for more details.
