An AQUA ZUMBA® ZUMBATHON® CHARITY EVENT really is just an extended version of a regular AQUA ZUMBA® class but with a REASON to party even more. It is open to anyone and everyone and no experience is necessary. Just come out, have a great time, and raise money for a great cause!
Our 2013 event, hosted by ZIN™ member Michele Park, saw over 200 people come out and splish-splash in the water together with 10 local AQUA ZUMBA® instructors. Over $3500.00 was raised for the Canadian Cancer Society's Relay for Life through Butterfly of Hope - Team Gully at this AQUA ZUMBA® ZUMBATHON® CHARITY EVENT alone! First one ever held in Edmonton!

WHAT IS AQUA ZUMBA®?
Splash your way into shape with an invigorating low-impact aquatic exercise. Known as the Zumba® "pool party," the Aqua Zumba® program gives new meaning to the idea of a refreshing workout. Integrating the Zumba® philosophy with traditional aquatic fitness disciplines, Aqua Zumba® blends it all together into workout that's cardio-conditioning, body-toning, and most of all, exhilarating beyond belief.
