(H.O.M.E.) will be hosting a Zumba for a Positive Cause campaign at GOLD’s GYM in recognition of World AIDS Day and those who have affected by HIV/AIDS.  The purpose of this inititative is to continue to raise the level of awareness and to recognize that the fight against disease is not over yet. Educational facts along with Free Testing will accompany this event.  

Sign up NOW and Zumba for a Positive Cause at the GOLD's GYM of Fredericksburg, VA. Know someone currently infected or who has passed away from AIDS? Then bring along a picture of this person, post it on wall in the dance studio, and Zumba for a Positive Cause in their memory.  

The Zumba workout provides fitness benefits because its routines feature interval training sessions with fast and slow rhythms and resistance training, which are intended to tone and sculpt the body while burning fat.

Music is the key ingredient to Zumba classes. The score, created with specific beats and tempo changes, transitions the workout from one toning, strengthening or cardio move to another, thus targeting every major muscle group in the body. The Zumba program borrows Latin flavor from the following dance styles salsa, merengue, cumbia, reggaeton and other international music styles and forms.

The Zumba program is recognized by the world’s leading fitness educators, including the Aerobic Fitness Association of America, IDEA Health and Fitness Association, and the American Council on Exercise
