Week 12/11/17

Good Morning and Happy Monday!

Hope you had a great weekend! my weekend was basically all family time! (it's the time of year!)  Here is this week's schedule! 













Please note that this Monday I don't have classes at Crunch! I will have subs.  My daugher has her School Christmas recital.  This week is the last week I will be teaching TrueFit classes! So I will see you next year! 1/2/18 Sharp!!!   Don't forget I am trying to do a Christmas Zumba party -- it's not on the schedule yet.  I am trying to decide if its going to be at Flor De Mexico at 6pm (90min) or if Charito can't find a sub it will be at Crunch at 6pm -- if at Crunch we can't bring food, but we can go out to dinner after - so if you are interested reach out to Charito or me. 

Also I will be teaching on Monday 12/18 at Crunch! and that is the last class I will teach at Crunch this year! but hold your horses! Charito and I will be co-teaching at Crunch on 1/1/18 at 9am! 


Hope you see you this week, if I don't have a great Holiday! 

Week 12/4/17

Good morning!

Hope you had a great weekend! My weekend was pretty awesome :) zumba and family related!   Here is this week's schedule:

You ready to tackle this week? I am so ready! Have an awesome week, and hope to see you this week!

Last Week of November!

Good morning and Happy Monday!

Hope you all had a very good Thanksgiving break! Thank you to those who came on Friday for an after burner class! 

Here is this week's schedule:

If you are planning to taking Insanity this week, and you have never taken that class, don't worry :) it's fun, its hard FOR YOU, (you make it harder, so listen to your body) and bring your mat! I had forgotten how much I loved this Group x format, (I am not a fan of the the DVD's but the Group X format is so much fun!) 


So let's go back to the fact that this is the last week of November! CRAZY! with that said, December is a short month for me! so that means that we only have 3 more weeks of working out together! this week, plus 2 more weeks in December:

Please note that on Friday 12/15 thats our TrueFit Christmas Party! 90min of Zumba, and a little after party (potluck!) and for those that want to participate a White Elephant Gift Exchange!! (FUN! I am excited!)  The last class of the year will be Saturday 12/16/17! yes, that is right I don't plan on teaching after that Saturday and until the end of the year (unless for emergency subbing) We will be back on 1/2/18! I may be teaching a special class 1/1 on 24hr and Crunch so keep your ears open for that :) 

Hope you to see you tonight at Crunch if not see you tomorrow! 

ALERT!!!

Good morning! 6pm Strong is Cancelled and 7pm is up in the air it depends if I can leave Berkeley by 6pm! Please check the TrueFit FB page around 6pm for the Zumba update!

Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience!

Week of 11/20/17

Good morning! 


Hope you all had a great weekend! FIRST and FOREMOST I would love to thank you for the fun surprise you all pulled off last Thursday for my birthday class!  I thougth I was giving you a fun free surprise and you guys turned it back to me! 

Lot's of you dressed as mini Carmens! I loved it! my favorite jammer and mentor also came to class and other zin friends, it was just a very good and happy day :) 

Here is this week's schedule! and its a short week! I didn't receive a lot of response about holding a Wednesday (Pre-burn) class at the LifeStyle location, so I decided to cancel it.  But we do have a 2 hour event as an After Turkey Burner class! 8am Strong and 9am Zumba!

Also don't forget that Decemeber is a short month! so please come out and workout with me as much as you can! I am planning a Zumba Christmas Class on Friday 12/15 - so save the date, and also for those that want to participate have dinner after and do a white elephant exchange! 

Have an amazing week!  and I will see you out on the Fitness Floor! 

My Birthday Week!

It's my Birthday Week! WOHOO! #forever25

Here is the schedule for this week:

Please note that on Thursday, I want to celebrate my birthday with you!  I will have a 90min zumba with my 2017 favorites!  and let me tell you it's been hard to choose.   On Thursday for those that arrive at 6pm I will be having a PiYo 30min Class - so bring your  mat! 

This brings me to another issue and our Cardio Sculpt class.  Sometime during Friday night, my mini van was stolen. It was recovered, however the weights that we use for Cardio Sculpt were stolen.  That means no more Cardio Sculpt until I can replace these; so probably not until next year.  With that being said, I though maybe we could have a 2nd Strong class for the week, but then I remember that we really should be getting some stretch and strenght at the  same time, and I thought what a perfect way to bring back PiYo.  For those that do not know Piyo: 

 

Also I wanted to check in to see how many of you would be interested in a class next Wednesday (day before Thanksgiving) (Pre-Turkey Burner) at the new location LifeStyle at 7:30pm - I have the hour, but I want to make sure people show up, so please let me know.  

Have a great week and can't wait to dance with you! 

Week 11/6/17

Good morning!

Hope you all had a great weekend :) I had a little bit of everything! spent time with my Zumba fam, attended a Jam Session with the awesome Carlos "El Bachatu" and spent some time with the kids working on our first annual Thanksgiving Tree!


This week is a short week! Here is the schedule:

I hope you guys can make it on Wednesday to LifeStyle! After Wednesday of this week I will dance with you until next week :) (week 11/13) which don't forget, Thursday 11/16 is my Birthday Zumba Class! 90min! starts at 6:30pm and its Free! Come out and celebrate with me :) 

Also this Saturday there will be a party in pink in Newark with ZJ's Meli and Ash (TrueFit Favorites :) and ZJ Dorie (who I heard is amazing!) and Jony Flores whom I really enjoy and wish he would come more often, I am a bit bummed out I will miss it, but if you are around and want to contribute to a good cause please go dance with them! 

Accountability: ugh! no weightlifting for me last week, I wish I could say I will hit the weights this week, but in honestly I won't have time.  The Struggle is real, and I need to start prioritizing my personal workouts  - practice what you preach right? #workinprogress

Hope to catch you tonight at Crunch otherwise I will see you tomorrow and Wednesday!

Week of 10/16/14

Happy Monday!
Here is this week's schedule: 

Happy to report that it seems like the air quality is semi back to normal, and its out of the unhealthy zone! SO YAY! so that means I won't be cancelling any classes.  I had to cancel last Wednesday as the index was reading 195 in Hayward. 

With that said I really do hope to see you on Wednesday! let's build that class and spread more zumba vibes!  

Last week,  I was able to do 2 days of weight lifting, that is one more day! slowly but surely my focus is coming back.  I still have lots to work on to get my mental focus back on track! 

Hope you all have a great week! and let's dance! 

WEDNESDAY NIGHT

Hello, 
Due to the air quality, there is no class tonight!!

Week 10/9/17

Happy Tuesday - sorry for the delay in posting :) I was off yesterday and basically spend a day vegging out at home.

Here is this week's schedule:

Don't forget we have a new location at LifeStyle Studio in Hayward, Zumba starts at 7:30pm and your TrueFit Class is welcome!  (or drop in of $8)


I had a very lovely weekend.   I spent my weekend with my ZIN People and it was just lovely.   I know current events lately are just devasting ,or sad, or just makes us angry. So let's send out good thoughts out to the universe, and focus on the good within ourselves.  Which can be hard with all that is going on, its hard to focus on the good.  How do you choose your thoughts when its just too overwhelming? Sometimes it just starts with a deep breath, followed by another and then the the positive thoughts will materialize before you know, focus on those! It can also be as simple of taking an hour to two for yourself and just sweating and smiling, so don't forget to visit me this this week :) 

Accountability: I am doing 1day of heavy weight lifting, I was a bit frustrated about that, but I figure 1 day a week is better than 0.   I already did my 1x a day week this week (yesterday) so maybe I can sneak in another on Wednesday!

Can't wait to see you guys tonight! 

October!!!!

Happy October!

I'ts the start of my favorite time of the year! First Let me announce that we will have a new class on Wednesdays at 7:30pm - but please note that this will be at a new location:

Please note that even though this class is at a new location it is still a TrueFit class! that means your class cards are welcome and the same drop in fee of $8 applies! I really hope you can come this week and help me kick off this class with a bang! 

With that said here is this week's schedule: 

So lets talk OCTOBER! this month I will cancel class on the following days:

On Thursday 10/19/17 I was invited over to Newark to StudioZ to celebrate Cheryl L. Birthday! I hope you guys can join me there! there will be various guest instructors, and all you need to bring is food to share for 8 people.  And on 10/31/17 -- well that's Halloween and my little ones need me at home! 



Now *DRUM ROLL* we are technically hosting 2 SUPER FUN EVENTS! Charito can't join me on Friday on our Halloween Party due to Adult responsibilites with her day job, so we will have other guest instructors! the amazing Robin, Dee and Veronica! However we can't let Charito not celebrate with us, so we will have a Dia de los Muertos Class!(maybe Vero can brave the traffic and join us too!) wohoo! 2 events, double the fun!! 

 









Accountability: I only did 3 weight lifting sessions in September, I am hoping I can increase this number this month.  However, I also want to add 2 new quadrants for our Strong class - busy evenings for me! 

Have a great week! Hope to see you tonight at Crunch or tomorrow at TrueFit! 

Weekly Schedule 9/25/17

Happy Monday! 

Hope you had a great weekend! my Saturday was a bit insane, but super fun! Here is this week's schedule:

This weekend if you are looking for a Saturday evening weekend you can dance with Meli! More info here  I will be there as I will be attending a jam session before the Master Class :) 










On my personal accountability I was able to do a 1x session of heavy weight lifting, my goal is to up it to 2x.  


Have a great weekend, and I don't see you tonight at Crunch, then I will see you on Thursday :) 

Week of 9/11/17

Good morning!

Hope you all had a great weekend.  My weekend was filled with Zumba Energy!  so much fun! I know you guys also had fun! I missed the Castro Valley Fall Festival, but I know you guys had fun and Represented!

Thank you so much! Let's continue that energy with this week's schedule:

On Thursday we celebrate Mexico's independance day with a Mexican Fiesta 90min Class! I am working on that playlist, and let me tell you it's FIRE! Come out and Join Charito, Veronica and myself.  Wear your green, white and red! 


Accoutability: Last week I was able to weight lift only 1x a week.   So my goal this week is to up that to 2x a week.  Another goal is learn another new quadrant for Strong.   

Have a great week! I'll see you guys tonight at Crunch or tomorrow at TrueFit :) 

Week of 9/5/17

Happy Tuesday! sorry I am late with the schedule.  Here is this week's schedule plus if you want to join me at 24hr :) 

I wanted to take a moment to thank you all for coming out, your best wishes last Friday to dance and celebrate TrueFit! we had lots of guests and the energy WAS AMAZING! I had this Zumba High all weekend and I just couldn't get rid of :) 


Here are some September dates to save for TrueFit:

I still do have TrueFit t-shirts available - only Large but I am sure you can cut and tie ;) - in case you want to represent.  Just let me know.  

This Saturday I won't be able to make the Demo at the Castro Valley Fesitval due a Saturday morning class, but Charito will be there and thank you in advance for coming out and representing!

3. 90min Master Class with Meli, Jhon and Rony - Celebrating Meli's Birthday - YES THAT IS HER ACTUAL BIRTHDAY! 


 Can't wait to see you guys tonight! 

Week of 8/28/17

Happy Monday!

Hope you all had a great weekend! The schedule this week is packed with FUN and SWEAT! 

Since I had to cancel last week's 6pm class we need to recover that class 😉 so on Thursday we will have a triple threat class! I expect a loud "WOHOO!" Also on Friday we celebrate 3 years of TrueFit! so come and sweat! this is a free 2 hour class, so share this class with friends :)

Also save the date for Thursday 9/14 we are going to have another 90min Zumba class with a Mexican Fiesta with Charito! (Mexico Independence day is 9/16)  and I am trying to have other guest instructors, so keep your fingers crossed!  

Another date to save is for Saturday 9/16 I was invited for a fundraiser at St. Clemente Church in Hayward - for more info 

In September we are also schedule to do Zumba demos at the Castro Valley Festival on the weekend of 9/9 and 9/10 - currently Charito is confirming which day we will perform.  We were also invited to perform at the St. Clemente Festival on 2 days: 9/23 at 11:45am and 9/24 at 12:15pm 

I KNOW! Lots of fun coming up in September!

Let's talk about my accountability, last week was a dud for me -- I didn't do any weight lifting and I also wanted to start practicing a new quadrant for Strong, and did not.  Right now my biggest hurdle (or excuse?) is that I need to schedule my evenings accordingly.  I haven't been motivated, I get home...I am tired and just want to veg out.  I need to find my motivation.  You might think that is "OKAY" and it could be if that is what makes me happy.  But I need structure to feel good about myself...believe it or not when I am on top of my game I schedule "veg out" days and not just veg out all the time LOL.  So that's my goal, to structure my evenings so I can hit my goals.  

Have an awesome week and hope to dance with you!
