Way to go on the half way to your target weight stuff. That's pretty impressive.
FYI, Hans is in every prayer our family says. He's always the last thing we pray for before closing the prayer. Now that Ammon is doing well and Hans is coming home in a month and a half, what are we going to pray for?! -Jess
Thanks for the prayers. However, considering this family's history with things, I'm sure something else will come up that we'll feel the need to pray about. :) How about that the stock market will start going up again? :)

Hi Lindsey,
It's great to hear that your favorite workout class is Zumba. I teach that and love it. It's still catching on at our gym and there's only about 10 each class that take it, but I still love to teach it. When you do your class is it about 90% Latin music or does your teacher add in other things?
Also, Congrats on being half way to your goal, that is fabulous. Great job! Loosing weight is the hardest thing to do, I'm so proud of you.
thanks for the encouragement michelle. I didn't know you teach that class. I absolutely love it. All the music is latin I believe. It's so much fun. How'd you get trained to teach it? I'm assuming you can shake your booty pretty good if you are the instructor. :)
Hi Lindsey,
To get trained, I had to go to a Zumba workshop and that was an all day dance training on how to learn and teach choreography, then I had to make up an entire 45 minute class and teach that for my fitness coordinator along with other instructors, then she picked who she thought did it best and gave them classes. Now I teach two classes a week, one is an hour long and one is 45-50 minutes long. I add in hip hop and modern music along with Latin for my classes, but I do keep my class 85-90% latin and stay with the Zumba music that I pay for. It's really hard to learn to teach, but if I can do it anyone can since I did not grow up dancing and sometimes feel very dumb when I'm up there teaching others to Latin dance. With time and a ton of effort I'm getting better and I love it now.
