Each time you spin after your first workout you can increase the tension and the intensity

    Zumba at Racquets

    We have had to cancel the Zumba class at Racquets on Friday evenings because not enough of you wanted it. So, we are wondering if the lack of people for it was because you don’t want Zumba at Racquets or if we simply chose a bad day of the week and time. If you have
