In the Gym is best, we need room. Or a large room with open space.

I can create individually and with other students in a team. I can make exercise artistic, creative, and fun. I can apply what I learned in this program to future creative endeavors.

"ZUMBA GOLD FOR YOUNG AND OLD" (ZGYO) is a twist on the highly successful fitness programming. Leslie Frances Mansellle, a Zumba Gold instructor, utilizes this version of Zumba designed for the senior market, with inter-generational groups. ZGYO incorporates creative movement and choreography, which gives participants an avenue to present their own ideas and opens the door for an exercise in interaction, persuasion, and leadership creating a student generated, patterned event.
Ms. Manselle will conduct two dance/exercise routines. She will then invite some student leaders to create their own moves, which the class repeats. The moves are strung together in a "˜movement-scape." Next, groups of students create patterns of movements within a musical time signature (4 or 8-beat) that can be mathematically distributed and mapped. The patterns are strung together and performed in sequence to create a Flash Mob routine. Dance and exercise movements follow the structure of music per the time signature by using math. For example, two 4-beat measures equal one 8-beat count in dance, or 2 x 4 = 8. If we lay out a four 8-beat dance count, we could express it as 4 x 8 = 32 or as 2 x 4 x 4 = 32 using the distribution property in math. |
