Fitness is one area of interest personally and professionally. In 1999, I became a group fitness instructor.  Currently I am certified to teach step, cardiokick and ZUMBA. My talents I share at work and in the community.

Zumba Workout

Willa Robinson Allen conducts a Praize Zumba class in the community at a local church. 
Zumba can be described as a latin dance aerobic workout. It features dance and music styles such as salsa, cumbia, reggaeton, flamenco etc. For most, it is a workout that "sneaks up" on the average participant.  They don't even anticipate a change in heart rate or breathing, because they are only dancing.  However, they are very wrong...

Here is a sample of music used during a Zumba class.  Zu Bailito is in the Quebredita style of music and is excellent for raising the heart rate through aerobic dance.

Artsy & Crafty am I--creativity has its advantages and disadvantages.  Currently, my crafty interests include scrapbooking, desktop publishing, jewelry making, sewing and machine embroidery. 
 
Diverse in range, but the hobbies listed above ensure that I am never bored and my time is spent in constant productivity.

Scrapbooking

A great way to relax is to engage time in crafting.  Scrapbooking is one way to do just that while preserving precious memories.  A little time and creativity can brighten up any occasion.  Today, with digital scrapbooking at the forefront, the possibilities are endless.

This is a scrapbooking class conducted by Willa Robinson Allen at a local church as part of a stress reduction series.

Health is wealth.
