Community Zumba Day is Wednesday at the NAC

Want to try Zumba? You'll have a chance to do it for free Wednesday at the Newtown Athletic Club.

The club is inviting the public to try out the newest fitness craze. That day only, the NAC will open its doors to the community for free Zumba classes.

Before and after every class there will be complimentary refreshments in the NAC Adult Lounge. All classes are available and appropriate for all levels of fitness. 

Guests must live within a 10-mile radius of the NAC and must be at least 24 years of age. If you plan to attend, arrive 15 minutes early to check-in at membership services with a current driver’s license.

The class schedule can be found on at www.newtownathletic.com. 

Zumba sessions are typically an hour long and are taught by licensed instructors. The exercises include music with Latin rhythms, as well as resistance training. Zumba is based on different dance styles, including salsa, merengue, mambo, hip hop and more.

The event is a warm up for the Kass Martin Zumba Charity event on Feb. 8, which will raise money for Augie’s Quest and ALS Research.

Last year’s charity event raised $25,000. Kass Martin, one of the top 3 Zumba instructors in the world, will be at the charity event. Click here for details.
