Free Zumba on the Plaza!

Do you want to have fun while working out this summer? Do you love being outside in downtown Rochester?

Get excited –– CWS Office Administrator Sara Pennington is offering FREE Zumba® on the Plaza this summer!

This year, Sara will host her weekly cardio celebration every Monday at 5:30pm on the Peace Plaza in downtown Rochester. The fourth year of Zumba® fun begins Monday, June 6 and will run through August 29 (weather permitting).

Zumba® lovers find an exciting change to their regular workout at Zumba® on the Plaza by dancing in a great outdoor venue.

This year, 27 licensed Zumba® instructors will lead a variety of routines on the Plaza.

Newcomers to the workout are also drawn into Zumba® on the Plaza. “People are attracted to the big crowd. The music moves them. Sometimes people will just pass by and start dancing,” Sara said. Some of those passersby turn into repeat attendees.

Zumba® on the Plaza breaks down barriers for anyone who is hesitant about trying this high-energy workout.  “Zumba® is for everyone,“ says Sara, “there is no gender, age, or rhythm-bias when you’re at the plaza. That’s what makes it so special.”

This year’s title sponsor is Empowered Wellness & Fitness Studio, a group fitness and personal training boutique studio in NW Rochester. Other sponsors include CWS, Inc., Serenity Couture, Ah-sirt Fitness and Nail Salon, and Rochester Women Magazine. HyVee South will provide free bottled water to thirsty participants. The event has also received a grant from the Movemeant Foundation.

Whether you’re an expert or newbie, grown-up or child, all are welcome at Zumba® on the Plaza. Come to work out or just watch a pack of happy dancers. Join us Monday, June 6 on the Peace Plaza in downtown Rochester.
