The Queen City Ballroom and Zoom 2U Fitness is proud to bring Zumba to you.

Michele Esposito is the Winner of Editor's Choice Best of NH award in the fun fitness category!!!

Zumba is a fusion of Latin and international rhythms used to combine dance and fitness moves to create a unique high-energy low impact fitness class.

Zumba is great for anyone---male or female---of any age and of any fitness level. You do not need to have any dance experience or fitness training. You just have to be willing to enjoy yourself. All you need is some comfortable “athletic” type sneaker/shoe (no heels) as you will be moving, some water and a towel (just a small one) as you will be sweating.
Zumba spices up your body with some salsa, merengue, cha cha, and cumbia rhythms.

Zumba is a non-intimidating way to get healthy. The music is upbeat, the movements are easy, and the class is fun! It doesn’t feel like exercise… but it is.

DITCH THE WORKOUT…JOIN THE PARTY!!!

For more information on this class or on Zumba contact Michele at: michele@zoom2ufitness.com / 603-264-0984
