My Zumba Experience with Lauren Brady
Zumba Instructor Lauren Brady is Beautiful, Brilliant, and a Blast on the dance floor! This former Dazzler will make you feel like a rock star after one class. Her smile immediately makes you have a good time and her personality makes every person in the room feel comfortable.
So what can you expect during a Zumba class with this blonde, multi-talented, booty shaking instructor? She said it best…
Class is basically a party where we all can just “get down”, be silly, be sexy, have fun, and burn some calories. I want everyone in the class to feel great about themselves and just let loose and forget about everything else!
Special People Creating Something Special
I went to Lauren’s very last class at Gainesville Health and Fitness and it was packed with people from wall to wall. Her class wasn’t just a class, and Lauren wasn’t just an instructor. The energy Lauren brought that day and the love from her class created something special. Zumba was more than just dancing, working out, and burning calories. Lauren and her class created a family and you can see it by the way she shares some of her favorite memories…
When I left Gainesville Health and Fitness, my regular students brought me flowers and a card on my last day! It was so sweet and I really do miss that group now that I moved. Zumba is interesting because you get to know your class because they get addicted to it and keep coming! Now, I have one 70 year old lady who says she works on her moves because her husband like them! It “keeps her young” and her marriage “fresh”. No matter how old you get, you should still get the chance to feel sexy, and Zumba can help with that. Also, I had this girl Kristina (Netz) in my class once, and she was just awesome.
Haha, thanks for the shout out Lauren (and all of the pictures!).
A Changed Perspective of Zumba
Lauren changed Zumba for me. I love the health benefits of Zumba, but I love the relationships I’ve made even more. A smile, a hug, a compliment, or a Zumba instructor like Lauren can give someone that extra push to live a healthier lifestyle, a healthier lifestyle inside and out. Oh, and have a lot of fun while doing it!

Lauren Brady is REALLY REALLY REALLY sexy and shining (I really wish I am using the right words)!
I took my first Zumba class of the school year last night at Southwest with an instructor named Laura (similiar names haha). Anyway, we also danced to Drop it Low (feat. Fatman Scoop Remix) – Kat Deluna. I had soooo much fun! Unfortunately, it was the last class of the semester, but I’ve definitely been inspired to do it more often.
