ZUMBA Session 4
with Robin Lovell, Wells-Ogunquit Adult Community Education
Robin's Zumba® classes have been running strong for over 17 years through the Wells Ogunquit Adult Ed. Zumba® is dance exercise for people who don't consider themselves dancers but love to dance. The hour flies by and you will get a great workout. Robin uses fun, high energy music and the moves are basic and repeated enough times so that you really know them. Plus one of the best things about Zumba® is the emphasis on modifying the moves to make them your own. Questions about the class?
