Merry Christmas

🎅🎄 I wish that you have spent a warm and cousy Christmas and that you have managed to be happy, or yet better to bring a moment of happiness to your loved ones or at least to the people around you that you sometimes don’t perceive.  That was my case:

Disguised with some of the Santa Claus hats that I have used this year and in previous years, I went to Vallarta, Nuevo Vallarta and Punta Mita to greet some of the people that I see on a daily basis among hotel entertainers, waiters, hostesses, Trash pickers, maids, baristas and others to give them a brief surprise.

Then I asked them to introduce their hand in another Christmas boot from where they pulled out a small toy or school accessory. (A Toy Kitten, A ball with the Avengers or Moana, Hello Kitty’s crayons, Jumping Ropes, etc.) I know they are adults and that they are not asking for toys but I also know it’s important to reconnect with our inner child.

Record personal de velocidad tan sólo por bailar.

Este sábado pasado fué la celebración del cierre de los talleres de danza del ciclo de primavera de la Biblioteca Los Mangos. La idea que todos los maestros pusieran a sus alumnos a bailar, en mi caso yo con ellos, a las 12pm en el Auditorio Cecatur en Puerto Vallarta.

Susy, mi amiga instructora que me podía cubrir por aquel lado no podía cubrirme y no confié en dejarle la clase a alguien más. Así que como solución para poder atender los dos compromisos, decidí hacer lo que cualquier Goyito haría…

¡Romper un record de velocidad!

A estas alturas del partido, yo pensaba que ya me había todado verlo todo y vivirlo todo durante una clase de Zumba Fitness. Equivocado estaba. Hoy me tocó vivir una situación nueva que quizá sólo le haya pasado a los maestros Zumba ZES como Eliza o Braulio o al Zumba Yoda Sensei Beto y quizá solo ellos puedan contestar esta pregunta para futuras referencias. ¿Qué haces si a la mitad de la clase de Zumba un mono se mete a la pista de baile? Bueno, eso me pasó hoy: Continue reading “¿Que pasa si a la mitad de tu clase de Zumba se mete un mono?”

How to deal with a monkey in your Zumba class?

At this point of the game, I was thinking I have seen it all and deal with all kinds of situation during a Zumba Fitness class. However today I experienced a brand-new situation that maybe only has happened to people such as the Zumba ZES masters such as Eliza Stone or Braulio Cruz or Zumba Yoda Beto Perez. Some of them need to answer it for future references:

What happens if at the middle of the Zumba Class a monkey comes to the dance floor?

Well that happened to me today:
