Zumba in the Park starts Wednesday evening

ROSEBURG, OR – Burn some calories at Zumba in the Park sessions on Wednesday evenings starting July 7, thanks to the YMCA of Douglas County and the Roseburg Parks and Recreation Department.

The Y and Roseburg Parks and Rec take the “work” out of workout by mixing low- and high-intensity moves in these interval-style, family friendly dance fitness parties on Wednesdays from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. through August 25.

The free sessions are held in the grass just west of the large pavilion in Stewart Park.

Zumba is a dance fitness program developed by Colombian dancer and choreographer Alberto “Beto” Perez in the 1990s.

No registration is needed. Wear comfortable workout clothing and bring water.

For more information, call the YMCA at 541-440-9622 or Roseburg Parks and Recreation at 541-492-6899.
