Important Zumba Info

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to let you know of some upcoming changes to my Zumba schedule. I was able to get a time slot for our class at the South Jordan Fitness and Aquatic Center on Monday nights at 8pm. Those classes will begin Monday, November 5. The price for 1 class is $5, or they have a 10 class punch card for $40.

I will no longer be teaching at ADA on Thursday nights, and therefore my punch cards will be invalid. So, I will be teaching at ADA October 25 (tomorrow) and November 1 (next Thursday). You can come and use your punch cards for those classes. If you still have punches on your punch cards after that, I will reimburse you for however many punches you have left on three conditions:
1. You must email me first and let me know how many punches you need to be reimbursed for by 5pm on the day you come to be reimbursed. This is so I have adequate time to go to the bank and have the cash to give you.
2. You must come to ADA on either of the dates mentioned above to be reimbursed. I will be reimbursing people after class. If you choose not to come to class, you can come between 9:30pm and 10pm to be reimbursed. I will not be reimbursing people outside of these dates/times/place.
3. Your punch card must not be expired before November 1, 2012 in order for me to reimburse you for any remaining punches.

Bleh...enough with the serious stuff! OK, so if you want to come to South Jordan on Monday, November 5th, please let me know and I can try to get you in for free for this first time. I'm excited! Thursdays just weren't working for anyone!!

My new schedule as of November 5th will be:

Mondays 8pm South Jordan Rec Center (about 11000 S. Redwood Rd.)
Wednesdays 9pm Daybreak Community Center
Fridays Noon at South Jordan Rec Center

Also, I will be deleting this blog at that time, so please "Like" my Facebook page to communicate with me and for details on my Zumba classes in the future: Utah Zumba With Amy. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Monday Night Class Moved to Thursday Night

I have moved the Monday night class to Thursday night. This is a temporary move. Monday night works better for me and I am still looking for another place to teach on Monday nights. I didn't want to leave you without a class though, so I've moved it to Thursday at 8:30pm at ADA. I hope you can still come and dance with me! The change is effective starting this week. So, my schedule from now on is:

Wed 9pm @ Daybreak

Thurs 8:30pm @ ADA

Fri. Noon @ S. Jordan Rec.

Zumbawear Giveaway Tonight!!

Zumba tonight at the Daybreak Community Center 9pm! Enter a drawing to win a Zumba Tank Top! I have something in every size from XS to XXL.

I have new choreography tonight, too! You don't want to miss it. Bring some friends and let's shake it!

Changes To Wednesday Night Class

My Wednesday night class is changing a bit. I have been a sub at the Daybreak Community Center for a while. My friend and fellow Instructor, Kimberly, can't teach her Wednesday night class there any more. She asked if I would take it over. I figured that since it is so close to our current location at ADA, it would be an fairly easy move for all of us to go over there!

Effective 5/9/12 (That's tomorrow!):
Time: 9pm
Place: Daybreak Community Center 
4544 Harvest Moon Dr. - about 1 mile north of ADA. Go west on 11800 S., after 1/2 mile, turn right on Kestrel Rise Rd. The Community Center will be on your left and is attached to Daybreak Elementary.

Tomorrow nights class is FREE - as is next week's!!!!! (I had to do a little negotiating, but I'm lookin' out for ya!) 

They have different prices depending on how you want to pay. It is $6 per class paid to the front desk. Or, they have an option of unlimited monthly classes (Zumba, Pilates, Strength, Kickboxing, etc.) for $30. I'm going to see if I can get a punch card program going with them, but if so, that will be at least a few weeks down the road. Unfortunately, they won't accept my punchcards there, but they are still valid on Mondays at ADA.

Here are some of the great things about this move: 

-The location is nice! The room is bigger with wood floors. They have a great sound system so we can get into the music even more! Don't worry, we'll still be turning off the lights and turning on the disco ball! Oh! And they have FANS - overhead, lots of them! 

-No more cancelled classes! If I can't teach, there will be a sub. If only a few people show up, we're still having class. It can be something you can count on.

-There are a group of people there who love Zumba as much as we do and so the energy should be amazing! 

I love being able to meet up with each person that comes to my class. Whether you're regular, or you just come once in a blue moon, and everything in between. My classes are honestly the highlight of my week, and is in entirely because of each of YOU. Thank you for everything you bring to my life. I hope that you'll keep coming to my class. I know know it's always a pain to have to get use to a change, but give it a try for the next two weeks at the FREE classes and see what you think. 

Spread the word about the free classes, let's make it a PARTY!!

New Weekly Class Schedule:

Monday 8:30pm @ ADA

Wednesday 9:00pm @ Daybreak Community Center

Friday 12:00pm @ South Jordan Rec. Center

So, come and check it out! Call me if you have any questions or if you get lost! 801-809-1252

Class Cancelled Tonight

Sorry guys - My class tonight is cancelled. I'm sick. :-(

I'm Back!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I am teaching classes again.

Monday & Wednesday 8:30pm @ ADA

Thursday 5:45am & Friday 12:00pm @ the South Jordan Rec Center.

There are still some things that cause a little pain, so I have to be careful. You can go all out though, and that's what is most important!

I'll have Zumba tanks and pants, so bring cash or check if you want to do a little shopping after class!

See you Monday night!

No Class Tonight 2-8-12

I have to cancel class tonight. I am having some health issues that I'm trying to figure out. I am so sorry. Hopefully I'll be able to get back at it on Monday. I'll let you know when I know! Spread the word!

Saturday Class Cancellation

I just wanted to let everyone know that I am canceling Saturday classes indefinitely. I would love to start them up again at some point. I'll let you know when that becomes a possibility. If you have bought a punch card from me and are only able to attend Saturday classes, please contact me directly and we'll work out a solution.

FYI:

1. In addition to checks and cash, I can now accept credit cards.

2. I will have some clothing you can purchase at class tonight. (Cargo pants, tanks) Last chance because I'll be listing everything on Ebay tomorrow.

3. In case you weren't there Monday night, I now have hip scarves that you can use during class. It makes you want to shake it so much harder! It was a lot of fun to hear all the jingling!

Come dance with me tonight! 8:30pm @ ADA

No Class Next Week

I wanted to let you all know that I won't be having class at ADA next week (Dec. 26-31.) I will be teaching at the South Jordan Rec Center Thursday at 5:45am and Friday at noon if you're interested.

I'll be back at ADA on Monday, January 2!

Have a wonderful Christmas!

FYI

I won't be teaching at the South Jordan Rec Center today at noon - my little girl is sick. Harmonie will be subbing for me.

Have fun! I'll miss you! See you next week!

Party in Pink (TM) Zumbathon!

I am co-hosting a "Party in Pink" Zumbathon with Tesha Ceislak on Wednesday Oct. 5 at ADA. Tickets are $7 each and all of the profits will go to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation. Come support this worthy cause during Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

**Note: There is very limited availability. Tickets will be sold first come first served, in person, at my Zumba classes starting next Wednesday Sept.7.

More Information

Susan G. Komen fought breast cancer with her heart, body and soul. Throughout her diagnosis, treatments, and endless days in the hospital, she spent her time thinking of ways to make life better for other women battling breast cancer instead of worrying about her own situation. That concern for others continued even as Susan neared the end of her fight. Moved by Susan’s compassion for others and committed to making a difference, Nancy G. Brinker promised her sister that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever.

That promise is now Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, the global leader of the breast cancer movement, having invested more than $1.9 billion since inception in 1982. As the world’s largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists, they're working together to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. Thanks to events like Zumba's Party in Pink™ Zumbathon® Charity Event and generous contributions from their partners, sponsors and fellow supporters, they have become the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world.

Zumba Fitness is teaming up with Susan G. Komen for the Cure®
and its global nonprofit partners through the global Party in Pink (TM) movement to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research and community outreach programs.

Join Amy Jack and Tesha Cieslak Wednesday, October 5, 2011 as we team up to raise money for this worthy cause. All of the profits from this event will go to charity.
Doors open at 7:30pm, the Zumbathon will start at 8:00pm.
Tickets are $7 and there is limited availibility, so purchase yours from Amy or Tesha today!
Everyone attending will be entered into a drawing for raffles prizes!

Happy Labor Day!

No class this Saturday or Monday. Have a wonderful Holiday weekend!

Class Schedule

Next week's class schedule is:

Monday - 8:30pm

Wednesday - NO CLASS

Saturday - NO CLASS

Those are my last class cancellations for a while!

By the way, I got the class time situation resolved, and everything will stay as it is!

See you Monday!

I need your opinion!

Is 9pm too late to start a Zumba class? The Studio which I'm at is starting classes up again soon and they have a class Monday night that goes until 9pm - so we wouldn't be able to start until then...which means we wouldn't be done until 10pm. There may be an opportunity to have a Monday class at our regular time at another studio nearby. Which would you prefer, a different location (still in Riverton) or the 9pm time? I'll need to make a decision soon about that class, and so I wanted to be able to take into consideration how you feel about it. Please let me know!

Summer Class Cancellations

I wanted to post the dates that class will be cancelled this summer.

Our scheduled classes are Mondays and Wednesdays at 8:30pm and Saturdays at 8:00am.

We will not have class the following dates:

Reminders/Changes

I wanted to let everyone know that we ARE having class at Axis this Saturday at 7:30am. My weekend plans got cancelled, so I'll be there!

Reminder:

Today is the last day to trade your Axis punch card for one of my punch cards. I'll be teaching tonight at Axis at 8:30, so come to class and we can switch them out. If you can't make it to class, please contact me today and we'll arrange a time to meet up.

Axis Dance Center will be going out of business in the middle of June. I am currently looking to a place to move my classes to. I will keep you updated on what my plans are. If you have one of my punch cards, you can follow me to my new place and use them there.

Saturday the 21st (I'll be competing in a triathlon that morning)
