There’s something special about a Zumba® class.
Sure, the music is fun. The movement is energizing. But more than that, there’s a vibe—a room full of people showing up not just to move, but to connect. That energy? It’s powerful. And when it’s directed toward a cause? It becomes something even bigger.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of being part of countless Zumba® events that raised money for causes close to our hearts—Party in Pink™ fundraisers for breast cancer research, benefits to support individuals facing unexpected medical expenses, events to help families after the loss of a loved one, and classes that give back to organizations like the YMCA Annual Campaign, helping make wellness more accessible to everyone in our community.
Zumba instructors show up for these moments—because Zumba isn’t just a workout. It’s a movement with heart.
This time, it’s personal.
This month, several of us in the Austin area came together quickly to create an event in response to the devastating floods that hit the Hill Country over the July 4th weekend. Entire communities have been upended. Hundreds of lives have been lost or are still unaccounted for. And many of us know people who were directly affected.
So we’re doing what we can.
We’re gathering.
We’re dancing.
We’re raising funds.
And we’re honoring those who were lost by coming together in a spirit of support, resilience, and love.
You’re Invited:
