Starting from early October, the Brazilian Dance Society will be bringing you Zumba fitness classes - Zumba, the dance fitness craze sweeping the world, combines Latin inspiration dance moves with aerobics. Energetic and dynamic, if you're looking to improve your fitness and have a good time, come along - as Zumba is so popular we are sure to have a high demand for class spaces, so make sure you arrive early!
REGGAETON:
**FRIDAYS, 27TH OF JANUARY AND 3RD OF FEBRUARY** (MORE CLASSES HOPEFULLY COMING SOON!)
IN THE LOUNGE, LEEDS UNIVERSITY UNION 18:00 - 19:00 £3.50
This type of dance you may have seen in music videos such as Daddy Yankee’s "Gasolina", and Shakira’s "Hips Don`t Lie."
Another great way to get fit, Reggaeton is all about shaking it to the beat and moving your hips and chest in circular motions to the music, as well as energetic steps and arm movements. Great fun and a different experience!
SAMBA:
**BEGINNERS' SAMBA CLASSES - MONDAYS, STARTS THE 23RD OF JANUARY 2012
PULSE, LEEDS UNIVERSITY UNION 17: 00 - 18:00 £3.50 **
The Samba class is all about learning the classic Samba moves, steps and shakes that are danced to Samba music and performed in CARNAVAL, the traditional Brazilian feast known worldwide. It’s fun, sexy, upbeat and a great form of exercise!! We are looking to put on two levels of Samba class from October, Beginners' Samba for those who want to try it out for the first time, and Intermediate Samba for those with a level of previous experience. We’d love to see you there!
