What You'll Get
Recent studies show that people who dance tend to possess above-average strength, endurance, and flexibility, as well as a significantly lower risk of getting served. Hone this vital skill with today’s Groupon: for $35, you get a 10-class pass for Zumba fitness classes at Balance Fitness Studio in New Haven (an $80 value). Classes are currently scheduled on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, with more sessions coming soon.
Balance Fitness, which was awarded multiple best of New Haven awards by readers of the New Haven Advocate, helps clients stay slender and strong with a variety of exercise programs and nutritional expertise. During Zumba classes, fitness fanatics can burn off calories by stepping through a blend of Latin-dance-inspired routines, each accompanied by upbeat music and enthusiastic instruction. Friendly trainer Mubarakah Ibrahim, previously featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show, leads many of these energetic dance-a-thons, and is known to yell randomly and emphatically that everyone in the studio gets a brand-new core.
