Zumba and Aqua Zumba instructor Jennie Delp says fitness is
good not only for the body, but also the soul. Once people start moving, they
are usually surprised to find how quickly they begin to feel the difference.
“Come and have a good time and de-stress, and the work out
will be a side benefit,” says Zumba and Aqua Zumba instructor Jennie Delp.
“It’s easier to keep moving than to stop and start moving
again later,” says Karen Maas, part of the fitness center team at Chehalem
Aquatic and Fitness Center. “Staying active and staying healthy will make it a
lot easier to mature further and further. Your mental and spiritual aspects
will be healthier if your body is healthier. It’s a healthy philosophy to keep
active, to eat right, and we have ways to keep active here.”
