Downtown Tigard ballroom moves it with Zumba

If summer weather doesn't have you asking, "Hot enough for ya?" then summer classes at The Ballroom Dance Company will.

Let the pros take on the Rumba and Samba. Warm up with an hour of Zumba and see why this hot new fitness program is heating up Tigard's ballroom downtown at 8900 S.W. Commercial St.

Taught by The Ballroom Dance Company's professional instructors, Zumba Dance Fitness is fast and fun and the first class is free!

"Our teachers are awesome," said employee Sharon Cortez. "They really help you out."

Zumba combines aerobic Latin rhythm dance and resistance training. It sculpts as you sweat but at The Ballroom Dance Company, you can take your time to tone, too. "You can slow down at any time," says Cortez.

Classes are open to all ages and fitness levels. Cortez recommends regular workout clothing and comfortable sneakers. She says, "You're pretty tired after but it's really, really fun."

The Ballroom Dance Company offers the first Zumba class free to newcomers. Drop-in prices are $10 per class or purchase a $60 punch card and take up to four months to attend 10 classes. Beginning and intermediate Yoga classes also are available. The full list of public classes are posted at www.theballroomdancecompany.com.
