A little Zumba in my life.

Morning my Crafties,

Hope you had an excellent Saturday, because we did! Sun is rare on the Oregon coast, so when we get it we run outside. Hubby Lucas and I took Roarke out for a walk on the prom and this walk was amazing.

It was amazing because of two reasons.
1.The weather of course
2. I had a lot more energy , so much that I convince hubby to let me wear the backpack.

Where did this energy come from? If your asking then I am answering "Zumba"!

I am really stoked because if I have this much energy after 4 days of Zumba just imagine when I lose 40 pounds on it. I am not a fad follower but these steps and the music resonates in my soul. I finally ordered the Exhilarate DVD set and after for 45min session I was hooked.

Living on the Oregon coast I miss my Hispanic community I grew up with in the Bay Area in Cali.
Latin music was always around me. You wanted to dance , no problem because there was always a club ,cafe or someone's house you could go to. Not on the coast. My caucasian hubby loves to dance with me but he also always says he isn't a good dancer. Which he knows I wouldn't have married if that was true. Now I have Zumba and hubby is off the hook for a little while. It is so wonderful to wake up with music that gets Mind Body Spirit moving.This Chica has got her groove back on the Oregon coast and Hubby loves it. Funny how a little music can do magnificent things to a family.

The best part of Zumba is having my hubby be supportive like he always is. We have been cooking , juicing and trying out recipes from the Zumba cookbook. This has become a family affair because I have to put Roarke in the backpack 20 mins into my Zumba set and finish the set with him on my back. Lol!

Roarke loves to dance and he was kicking for our favorite Podcast "I love my salsa featuring Marc Anthony" in the womb. So why were we surprise that he would poop himself out doing his version of Zumba. This little guy never stop amazing us and I hope he never does. He is hooked to Zumba like his mommy. I am so stoked that he has emerged in all of his mix heritage, learning Spanish, eating tradition Puerto Rican, Mexican and Irish cuisines and reading classic children stories from those regions. Zumba has also got us playing more world music for Roarke.

Zumba in a nutshell has been a great investment for this mix heritage family and combining this with my Hemalayaa Behl's belly dance the slimmer healthier Crafty Owl Mama will be here by the summer.

Thanks for stopping by.
Always walk in love and light
Stay Crafty!
