My First Featured Video on Instagram!

Woo hoo!!! I made it onto Zumba’s Instagram account with my very first #zmoji video! Check it out below:

I am pretty sure “Firehouse” + this routine is a fave amongst MANY Zumba Instructors who have listened to Zin 66 — it was definitely one of my favorite songs when I first watched it. 🙂

Zumba Mega Mix 44 CD

Yippee! I received my very first ZIN cd in the mail! I’ve already started listening and have already picked out my jam!

Dancehall Mash-Up Master Class

I attended my very first zumba master class this weekend! It was two hours of zumba and dancehall fun! The instructors that led the routines were LaToya Bufford and Catherine “Cat” Chiemelu — they were so amazing! It is beautiful just to watch them dance. This event was hosted by the lovely Zumba Kiki (sooo pretty) and she also led the zumba portion during the event. All the sweaty fun took place at Stevenson Park gym located at 17400 Lysander Drive, Carson CA 90746.

Here I am BEFORE I danced my booty off…

Here is a hyperlapse video I put together on my IG (@richmade_m). The song in the background is Jump by  RDX. n_n

I can’t wait for my next zumba event!

Mr. Vegas – Bruk It Down – Dancehall Funk class

I just saw artistpush’s post about Mr. Vegas – Bruk It Down’s reggae music video… Which led me to investigate further on YouTube. I found a class I would totally check out.

Maybe one night when I am bored, I will try to learn these moves since there is a tutorial! *Yes* 😀

Or maaaybe… Maaaaybe even take a Dancehall Funk class since it’s in North Hollywood!
