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…

I look forward to the middle of the week because I have awesome Zumba classes on Wednesday and Thursday — I always sweat my booty off! And isn’t it fun to workout when you’re actually having a fun party!?

I’m pretty shy in class, but I stayed after a little while to give thanks for an incredible workout and to request a new song/routine for one of my fave Zumba songs — El Teke Teke by Crazy Design!

This song is fast and I know the routine my instructor comes up with is going to be killer!

Can’t wait until she begins to incorporate it into her class! 😀

Booty picture — grow booty grow… Sometimes, it’s hard to see the progress. In the image below, I can’t even tell anything has changed about my glutes…

My post workout meal — this is starting to become my fave time of the day — teriyaki style chicken and veggies with rice. Richef is talented at making delicious meals. How healthy teriyaki sauce is, I dunno… But I LOVE home cooked meals made from the heart. 🙂

Hump Day Motivation

It’s Wednesday and like many people, I need some Hump Day Motivation! My motivation for my new fit lifestyle is Trainer J! He is so strong! Look at all those muscles! When Trainer J goes to the gym, he focuses primarily on arms — but his arm day still consists of 100 pull ups!
