You've heard your co-workers, friends and family talking about it, you've seen our crazy Katie (and maybe even Janice or Angie) wearing clothing covered in the words ZUMBA® in every crazy colour imaginable around town. But what is ZUMBA® ?
Zumba Fitness® is the only Latin-inspired dance-fitness program that blends red-hot international music, created by Grammy Award-winning producers, and contagious steps to form a "fitness-party" that is downright addictive.
Since its inception in 2001, the Zumba program has grown to become the world's largest – and most successful – dance-fitness program with more than 12 million people of all shapes, sizes and ages taking weekly Zumba classes in over 110,000 locations across more than 125 countries.
In 2001, Club Co-owner, Programs Co-ordinator and General Manager of the Locker Room Janice Forand was at a canfitpro conference in Toronto when she first heard of this "Zumba thing" and got the 2001 DVD set for her dance enthusiastic daughter Katherine (Katie)... Katie was hooked! She loved all the different styles of dance and the music made her want to move! For the next 7 years Katie would play the DVD's and dance and move along with Beto...
Fast forward to 2009 when Janice was getting ready to attend another canfitpro conference in Toronto and saw an Instructor Training for Zumba Fitness Basics 1! Janice signed up and the rest as they say is history! Angie trained in Halifax the following year. Not long after Janice and Angie were trained, Katie (Janice's daughter) and Kristen (Angie's daughter) received their instructor training in September 2010 also in Halifax!
