You Should Be Dancing - September 1, 2013

This past Saturday, our group was invited to participate in the first ever biggest Zumba event to be held in Utah.  Unfortunately due to it being Labor Day weekend & prior commitments, not everyone from our team was able to participate.  Those of us (Dana Rossi, Sisilia 'Iongi, Beti Tu'aefe, Sela Misinale, Maki Chavoya, Souna Vea, Meliame Te'o & myself) that were able to, did the best we could to represent EMZ at this event.

It was a great event & an honor to be a part of it.  
Thank you Christian Weibell for all the hard work you put into it. 
Thank you La Osario for being a fun & crazy stage manager & keeping everyone on their toes.

Before heading out to UVU, we decided to stop by Maverik and pick up some 'snacks'.  Don't judge us, we had to make do with what we could find there.  Lol!!!


Upon arrival, this was the view from afar.


We arrived a little late, so we just hung out taking pics & goofing off like usual.


This is the trio that rode up with me.
L to R:  Ame aka Suka, Silia & Sela


Going over choreo.  Come to think of it, I don't think we completely went through the entire routine. 


Poly friends from Southern Utah:  Clifford Tapusoa (between Silia & Ame), April Keil (bottom right) & her daughter to the left of me.


Waiting anxiously on the side for our turn.


We did two routines:  EMZ & Oye.  In addition to the two routines, Xscape Fitness challenged us to a Booty Battle.  They are lucky we didn't have the entire Crew or it would be over.  Hahahaha.  It was lots of fun and aside from the joking, we truly love Xscape Fitness.  A few of their instructors have been guests at EMZ.

Here's video footage that someone took from the main floor.


I must say, Utah has some amazing instructors!
It was a fun evening reuniting with Zumba friends and making new ones!
Looking forward to next year's!
