Adult Fitness

Yes!  Zumba is now part of our offerings here at Sonshine.  There are several classes available, as well as some that allow you to take a class while your kid is in class!

 

Zumba is: A fusion of Latin dance and a fun cardiovascular workout, Zumba is the current fitness craze! It’s all about having fun, trimming down, getting your heart pumping, learning a routine, and toning major muscle groups. It’s an exhilarating, calorie-burning, fitness class that combines red-hot international music and contagious steps to form a Latin inspired "fitness-party" that is downright addictive. Come join the fun!

The benefits of "Gym Muscle"

GYM MUSCLE (by Alwyn Cosgrove, C.S.C.S.)
Let's say you can pass my pushup test- that doesn't mean you're above bodyweight training. Gymnasts train with their own weight almost exclusively and often have better bodies and strength levels than your average bodybuilder or weightlifter. That's especially incredible when you bear in mind that their sport isn't at all based on body aesthetics or max lifts. According to Nick Grantham, C.S.C.S., former conditioning coach for the Great Britain Olympic Gymnastics team, after years of body-weight training alone, the majority of male gymnasts are able to bench press double their body weight the first time they ever slide under a bar. If that doesn't prove the efficacy of body-weight training, nothing will.
