Good morning, Zumba style

Neither cold nor rain stopped first graders at Carmel Mission's Junipero Serra School from performing their Zumba Christmas dance routine.

The children performed their holiday exercise routine twice this week, after several morning practices with Alexandra Semlali, a Zumba fitness instructor at the Monterey Sports Center.

The performance included quick-moving dance steps with jingle bells tied around their wrists shaking to the beat of holiday songs. "We just wanted to do something fun and festive to get everyone in the spirit of Christmas" said first grade teacher Mrs. Hofman. This performance not only helped everyone get exercise, it was a fun way to welcome everyone to school on a cold and wet morning!
