2014
Greetings!!! Wow, it's 2014....10 days into the new year already. We hope you all had a fabulous holiday?!?! 2013 was a great year for EMZ. We expect 2014 to be EVEN better!
As many of you probably have read, we are prepping for the 2014 Zumba Conference in Los Angeles the end of this month. We are grateful for the donations that have been made to help us get there. As it stands now, 9 of the 14 instructors have registered. We plan on doing the same thing we did last year by driving out to Los Angeles, rooming together & taking in all the new things we are going to learn...and of course bring it all back and share with you - our class!
We would like to thank our organizing committee who has been responsible for putting together fundraisers, etc.

Thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
Before I forget...there have been questions asked if classes will be cancelled while we are out & who will be teaching class. The current plan is to have the instructors who are not able to attend cover our class. We promise will take care of that and make sure all is covered while we are away.
When we get back from Los Angeles, we will be kicking off a couple of challenges!!! Hope you are ready?!?!
Let's make it a great year!

Next Week's Schedule
Hi guys!!! I know...sounding like a broken record here. We have so much to catch up on...and unfortunately, it's not going to happen in this post. In fact, this will be a quick, short post.
A few have been asking about next week's schedule. It is as follows:
There WILL BE class on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday ONLY (November 25 - 28). We are thinking of possibly taking Thursday's class into overdrive and going an hour and a half. We'll see.
NO CLASS on Friday, November 29th.
Also, we have something fun planned for y'all next month. Stay tuned!!!
VIVA LA EMZ!!!
