Spreading the zumba fitness love

Abstract

Cancer has touched everyone in some way. My Grandmother passed away December 2011 from cancer. I wanted to do something to help the efforts of the search for the cure. As a Zumba® instructor, and a member of ZIN (Zumba® Instructor Network), I have the ability to host a Zumbathon® event. A Zumbathon® event is a charity event specifically utilizing the Zumba Fitness® program to raise funds for a worthy cause. I employed this program to organize and host a Zumbathon® event in partnership with Relay for Life® at Ball State University to raise money for the American Cancer Society®.
