So my good friend, Hillary, has recently started teaching Zumba classes. I have attended a few and have found myself dripping in sweat and struggling to sit down (props Hill for making me hurt the next day!). My dad is somewhat of an exercise enthusiast and will try anything once. Due to Hillary's closeness with the family and impeccable bocce ball skills, Dad pushed for the family to all go together. My first thought was, “Great, I get to shake my butt and boobs and gyrate in front of Lisa and Joe... Score!" My dad, who has been praised by my old dance studio owner for his great rhythm, did better than most ladies in the place. My mom and my sister... well, I am pretty sure that halfway through they decided that if they keep dancing then that's good enough. Everyone gave it the "college try."
Halfway through class Hillary gave a shout out to my dad for shaking his hips. While I am sure my mother enjoys her man getting a gold medal in hip shaking, I don't find it sitting too well with me. (I prefer to strongly believe the stork dropped me off in a pink blanket.) Afterwards, My dad and sister discussed the possibility of the Girls’ Lacrosse team doing a private lesson with Hillary and then enjoying a cookout following the workout. My dad is always trying to find a new workout routine for his lacrosse girls and Hillary's Zumba class will definitely qualify! I am so proud of Hillary for chasing her dreams and it was great to share in her dreams with my family. (I know I just hit the corny button and got deep on you guys!)
Here is a video for anyone who is thinking about attending a Zumba class. If you're ever in the Westerville, Ohio area attend Hillary's classes for $10/class:
