Ms. Morris has been dancing to Latin rhythms ever since she could walk. She took her first Zumba class about ten years ago.
“I instantly fell in love with the music and dance routines,” she said of that first experience.
Lettie became a Certified Instructor in 2008 and has been teaching at the Cypress Senior Center for several years.
Zumba Fitness fuses international rhythms with easy-to-follow dance moves. The result is a fun and effective fitness class that feels more like a night out dancing than a workout at the gym. Lettie’s demonstration at the Festival in Cypress will include dancing Latin patterns such as Cumbia, Merenge, Cha Cha Cha and Salsa, as well as other popular rhythms like Belly Dance, Hip Hop and Bhangra. The best part is that everyone is invited to get out on the dance floor and get involved.
“Last year I participated in the Festival activities and had the best time ever,” said Lettie. “What was supposed to be a 30 minute demonstration ended up being over an hour of fun. Quite a few of the participants, who had never taken Zumba before, ended up dancing with me and subsequently registering for one of my classes. I just love to see how much fun people have while dancing their way to better fitness.”
