Current Winner:  Michelle--> June Athlete of The Month

WOW, what an honor!  I have lost 20 pounds since joining Springs Salsa in mid April.

 

Between coming to as many classes as I can and cutting back on some of my calorie intake, the weight just seemed to slip away! I went down 2 clothing sizes and certainly have much more muscle tone and way more energy. My family and friends have really noticed and said that I look amazing! My son even commented that he could see my tricep!

 

I came to Springs Salsa because I only am able to stick with exercise that keeps me interested and I knew that dancing would do that. I wanted to feel better about myself and also have more energy and dancing has done that for me.

 

I keep coming back for more and more classes because it is so motivating when I started to see results and changes in my body and how I was feeling. I wanted to keep that up and never go back to any old habits that I had and by continuing to go to dance, I have been feeling so much better about myself.

 

Zumba® has changed my life by helping me to feel good about myself and have so much more self confidence and be proud of my body and the amazing ways it can move as I try to follow all of the Springs Salsa's incredible dance instructors. I have learned so much from their enthusiasm and it's been a terrific 3 months for me here. I plan to continue to dance for many many more to come!

 

If I could describe Springs Salsa in one word: Addicting!! (I really can't seem to get enough! What a great feeling.....the better I continue to feel, the more I want to continue feeling better!)

My husband and I moved from Korea to the US last December, and we travel a lot because of his job. It has been my first time living in the USA. For the first 7 months we were in the USA, we were always on the road, and didn't have a chance to make friends or socialize. Even though I worked out, I was often lonely and depressed.

Once, while visiting Montana, I went to a fitness center to work out, and they had a Zumba class there. I had never heard o
f it, and at first, I wasn't excited about trying it. Actually, since I was a little girl, I have loved to dance. I wasn't trained at all, but in my heart I always wanted to be a dancer. So, one day, I got curious, and decided to give it a try. During the first Zumba class I went to, I didn't pace myself.  I threw up in the first 15 minutes! It seemed so hard! I was definitely not in good enough shape to push myself as hard as I did that first day. But I loved the high energy intensity of it, and the music, so I began going back to more and more classes. From that time forward, whenever my husband I traveled to a new state, I was all about finding a Zumba class to go to. Now, I'm in pretty good shape, and it's a great feeling. I have more energy, and Zumba has helped improve my mental outlook so much!

When I found Springs Salsa and Dance Fitness on the web, my first impression was very positive, with very professional trainers, and I wondered if I could fit in there. I went to the West studio and immediately fell in love with the motivating, enthusiastic atmosphere. Just being there made me want to work out.

 

Dorie and Mark have been so encouraging and supportive, and have made me feel like family. Springs Salsa definitely lives up to its title as Best Dance Studio / Place to Work Out in Colorado Springs! 

 

I don't drive yet, and  I love Springs Salsa so much that we moved close to the West studio so I could easily walk to the studio! I attend about 10 classes a week. It's been hard, but it's been good to test myself. To anyone who was thinking about trying it, I would say, have just a little courage, and your life will be filled with positive energy.

I would describe Springs Salsa. It's like a magic box, and if you put enough in, you'll get what you need back out.

I can't wait to use my $25 gift card on more classes at Springs Salsa and Dance Fitness!

This is exciting! I have really enjoyed working out at Springs Salsa and Dance Fitness Studios and getting to know all of the instructors and staff. 

 

I had a baby almost five months ago and I wanted to lose all my baby weight.  I have lost a significant amount of weight since I have started taking classes at Springs Salsa.  When I leave class I feel more energized and better about myself. I went from wearing my pregnancy pants at a size 15 down to my pre-weight pants which are a size 9/10. 

 

I try to stick to the following schedule of classes:

Mondays and Wednesdays:  ABS Express Classes followed by ZUMBA.

Tuesdays and Thursdays:  Bi's, Tri's, Booty Express Classes followed by REMIX and ZUMBA.

Saturdays:  BodyBlast Express followed by ZUMBA.

Sundays:  ZUMBA

 

I LOVE the upbeat vibe of the studio. Everyone is so motivated and you can tell that they all love teaching. I used to go to a gym on Fort Carson and my mother (Kris) fell in love with this studio and convinced me to join.  Clearly, I'm getting results!!!

 

I like this kind of work out better than lifting weights and running on the treadmill, FOR SURE. Time seems to pass a lot faster when I am taking classes at Springs Salsa.  Springs Salsa and Dance Fitness definitely lives up to their name of Best Dance Studio and Best Place to Workout!  woohoo! 

 

For those that have not experienced Springs Salsa, I would say "there is no thinking, just do it, you will love it."   If I could describe the studio and staff in one word...INSPIRING!
 

I am so excited to be the February Athlete of The Month and I'm going to spend my $25 studio gift card on "daycare", so I can make sure to get to classes!

 

March 2010 Susan
I am so motivated to come to class and give it my all!...because I love the music, love the instructors, and love the results.  The older I get, the more important it is for me to be fit and healthy. I want to be one of those “alive and kicking” 80+ year old ladies.

I attend 8 to 10 classes a week. I love Springs Salsa because I don’t feel self-conscious. Everyone makes you feel welcome. I have a gym membership...but everyone knows the atmosphere at gyms where people try to “out do” the person next to him/her. You don’t have to worry about that at Springs Salsa. You just have to remember to SHAKE it.

If someone were thinking about trying the classes at Springs Salsa and Dance Fitness I would say it doesn’t feel like a “Workout”.   Further, I would describe Springs Salsa and Dance Fitness with this phrase -  Zumba Fever!

With my $25 gift card, I am going to buy my first pair of Zumba pants :)

She got her Zumba pants!!!!! and look at how she rocks it!  This pix was taking at the Zumba Master Class w/ Camilo on May 21st! Here's what Susan has to say...

I have lost two dress sizes and a total of 28 lbs.  When I started Zumba, I lost weight and hit my plateau at the beginning of this year.  Right now I'm watching my calorie intake and have started losing weight again.  I don't breathe hard from climbing stairs anymore.  My energy level is at a constant high from Zumba.  When I'm not at Springs Salsa, I feel like something is missing from my day.
