Have you ever gone to the gym and wanted to be able to have fun not working on the machines? There is a fun class that everyone can do which is Zumba!

Zumba is a form of exercise where you do not have to have any dance experience to do it. It is a big dance party where you can invite your friends and have a good time. There are many different types of classes that you can take with it. You can find Zumba at a gym or at any location. The class varies in times in the morning afternoon or evening which is convenient for everyone to be at. In the Zumba class there are various types of dance that are incorporated with it such as jazz, hip hop, salsa and many others. At gyms they are part of the combination when you get the membership. It is not expensive and it varies on the instructor too.

I go to Zumba all the time because it is fun and great stress reliever as well. When I first did Zumba I did not know what to expect but now I do. Sometimes Zumba instructors use the same routine and music every week and add a song. I enjoy the music that the different instructors use that I go to. When you are at Zumba, make sure to take water breaks when needed. Just have fun with it and if you mess up on the moves don't worry about it. All different instructors use different music and different movements. Some of the movements are the same but if you go every week you will know the routines inside and out. Most places you can drop in and try it out to see if Zumba is right for you.

Zumba is not for everyone but if you like it stick to it. I am a dancer and the moves come to me easy which really cool. The first time I went to Zumba I did not know the moves but it came to me the following week I went. I try to do Zumba at least once a week so that I can keep it up. If you love Zumba so much you can get certified by going on the website and signing up for the location that is closer to you. This summer I am getting certified as a Zumba instructor next month and I am excited. I have heard that it's so much fun but I will be sore after the long day of training but it's worth it. I already have been asked to sub a class when needed when I am certified. Once I am certified I will know what to expect and go from there. When I am certified it is always great to go to other instructors classes to support them too. It is always nice to have friends like that and to show them maybe some of your moves. I am so glad that I have the opportunity to do this because I love doing it so much. Zumba will be my side job too which is a nice thing to have.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
