Ditch the Workout, Join the Party and Zumba
February was Heart Month, and every year thousands of Canadians put their heart into making a difference in the lives of others by participating in the Heart & Stroke Foundation’s annual fundraising event – Fit for Heart. This year the Town of Ajax hosted its 9th Annual Fit for Heart event at the McLean Community Centre. The theme was, “let’s get dancing!” Instructors Sandy, Heidi and Yan led participants through Zumba, a fusion of Latin rhythm’s high energy, dance inspired cardiovascular workouts, designed to make you party and have fun. “The purpose of the event is to raise awareness and funds for the Heart & Stroke Foundation,” said Katie Holland, Fitness & Health Centre Consultant.“ Events like this one reach out to the residents of Ajax and promote a healthy and active lifestyle.” For information on heart health go to www.heartandstroke.ca.
