your dance moves? Try Zumba(R), a Latin based aerobic fitness program!

For $5 on DASH or cash, Tuesday* 5-6pm in FUEL (Collis)

* Tomorrow is potentially the last Zumba date, BUT in the event that we add another,  
blitz back and let us know if you're interested in next week!

ZUMBA:
The Zumba(R) program fuses hypnotic Latin rhythms and easy-to-follow moves to  
create a one-of-a-kind fitness program. Zumba(R) Fanatics achieve long-term benefits  
while experiencing an absolute blast in one exciting hour of calorie-burning,  
body-energizing, awe-inspiring movements meant to engage and captivate for life!

DOMINICAN REPUBLIC ASB:
This group will work in Barrio Samán, a migrant village of roughly 100 families  
near the north coast of the Dominican Republic. The ASB participants aim to contribute  
to advancing community-defined, development projects and develop cross-cultural  
relationships through service. In 2008, the group built a park and a community  
center in addition to conducting a health survey and teaching HIV/AIDS awareness  
and prevention classes to youth in and around the community. In 2009, the group  
constructed an athletic court for the community, continued the HIV/AIDS education  
project, and conducted a community census focused on public health and community  
demographics. In 2010 they began construction on an internet center. The group  
for 2011 will work on completing this project. These projects were conducted in  
collaboration with the recently founded Haitian Development Organization of Samán  
(ODHS), made up of local men and women invested in the barrio's wellbeing.
