We're all happy after our Outdoor Class at Trout Lake Park( John Hendry Park) last Monday.
​ Light rain is forecast for today, so we'll have our class indoors.

From summer into fall, I look forward to continuing to offer fun and engaging classes. I am currently working on new songs, choreography, and learning new Zumba formats so that I can continue providing the best experience possible for everyone.

I look forward to dancing with you all again this week!

​盛りだくさんだった週末も、あっという間に過ぎていきます。

ここバンクーバーでは6月に入り、夏の訪れを感じる季節になってきました。夏から秋にかけても、楽しいクラスをお届けできるよう、新しい曲や振り付け、そして新しいZumbaのフォーマットの勉強にも取り組んでいます。これからも、より良いクラスづくりに努めてまいります。

今週も皆さんと一緒に踊れることを楽しみにしています!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
I had the opportunity to go paddle boating for the first time this summer, and it reminded me once again how grateful I am for Canada’s magnificent natural surroundings. As summer approaches, I hope to spend even more time enjoying and connecting with nature.

Let's have our Zumba class today at Trout Lake (John Hendry Park)! 5:45 PM

Please use the map as a reference and meet us there.

The parking lot accessible from 19th Ave is the one at John Hendry Park (near the older playground area), but I'm planning to meet on the grassy area a little farther south, closer to 19th Ave.

The John Hendry Park parking lot is now paid parking, so it may be better to park along 19th Ave or on nearby streets.

Hope to see you there! 😊

皆さん、良い週末を過ごされましたか?
私はこの夏初めてパドルボートを楽しむことができ、改めてカナダの雄大な自然に感謝するひとときとなりました。これから夏に向けて、さらに自然に触れる機会を増やしていけたらと思っています。

今日は*Trout Lake(John Hendry Park)**で公園ズンバをしましょう!

地図を参考にお集まりください。

19th Ave側から入れる駐車場は、John Hendry Park(古い遊具があるエリア)の駐車場になりますが、そこよりも少し南側、19th Ave寄りの芝生エリア付近でお会いできたらと思っています。

John Hendry Parkの駐車場は有料になっていたので、19th Ave沿いやその周辺に駐車する方が良さそうです。

皆さんにお会いできたら嬉しいです!

Beto’s choreo is always simple and easy to follow and it’s effective repetitive fitness movement. I like it!!

Betoさんの振り付けはシンプルで繰り返しが多いのでフィットネス効果抜群だと思う。覚えるのも楽でいい!(^^)

Monday’s church class will be held indoors. Please gather at the church as usual.

I look forward to seeing you all in your respective classes this week.


月曜日のチャーチクラスは館内で行います。通常通り教会にお集まりください。

Are you enjoying the beautiful weather and the relaxing May long weekend?

Zumba is a “feel happy” fitness experience!
It includes dance elements, but many of the movements are simple and repetitive, making them easy to follow—so no special dance skills are required.

Of course, everyone naturally brings their own unique style to the movements.
That’s one of the best things about Zumba—every movement is welcome, and everyone can enjoy it in their own way.
Please don’t worry and feel free to join us!
You’re welcome to contact me directly, or simply drop by a class anytime.
All classes welcome drop-in participants!
Let’s enjoy a great workout and work up a refreshing sweat in a wonderful environment!

I look forward to seeing you!


お天気も良く、気持ちのいい5月の連休を楽しまれていますか?

ズンバは “Feel Happy” なフィットネスです!
ダンスの要素もありますが、シンプルで動きやすい動きを繰り返すことが多いため、特別なダンススキルは必要ありません。

もちろん、動きにはそれぞれの個性が自然と表れるもの。
どんな動きでもOK!すべてを受け入れて楽しめるのが、ズンバの魅力です。

ぜひ心配せずに、気軽に参加してみてください。
私に直接ご連絡いただいても大丈夫ですし、クラスにふらっと来ていただくのも大歓迎です。
すべてのクラスでドロップイン参加を歓迎しています!

気持ちの良い環境で、気持ちの良い汗をかきましょう!

皆さまにお会いできるのを楽しみにしております!

I had a chance to demonstrate Chair Zumba yesterday at VJUC yesterday after potluck lunch. Happy that many people joined me with their smiles on and a little exercise after yummy lunch.

Thank you so much for this opportunity and we look forward for you to try joining our weekly classes!!

Thank you Madalene, for a wonderful JAM session. I had the opportunity to learn alongside instructors I’ve long admired. It was truly a fulfilling weekend!!


As we head into the coming week, there will be a short break between sessions at some of the community centers, with a few classes on pause. I plan to use this time to reflect on what I’ve learned and continue growing.


I’m currently inviting more participants to join my church classes on Mondays and Fridays at 5:45 PM. It’s a welcoming space where we come together, move, and enjoy dancing—there are even a few hidden touches you won’t find in other classes!
With the days getting longer, I hope you’ll take this opportunity to join us.

ズンバのジャムセッションに参加して、憧れの先輩方と、同じ場で学んだり、とても充実した週末となりました。明日からの1週間はセンターのセッションの狭間で、お休みのクラスがありますが、学んだことをアウトプットするための時間として、有意義に使いたいです。

月曜、金曜日の私の運営でやっている、チャーチクラスでは、一緒に集まって、踊ってくれる仲間を募集しております。月・金、5:45PM~です。

他のセンターではない、隠れたお楽しみもあったりするので、ぜひ、日が長くなったこの頃、ご参加してみてくださったら、嬉しいです!
