MOVE IT, MOVE IT!

Let’s move our bodies and listen to the music we like. Follow the dance moves of the zumba video below. If the music takes over your body that is fine, as long as you are moving to the music.

Again videos and /or pictures of engagement in any physical activity is always welcome and encouraged!
