Charity concert for the recovery of the Great East Japan Earthquake 2011

ZUMBA, , , ,

Every year this season reminds Japanese people of a tragedy.

東日本大震災３

Do you remember that the Great East Japan Earthquake attacked Japan on the 11th of March 2011?

The recovery effort is continuing even now.

To hold a charity concert for the recovery, Japanese traditional art performers will get together on the Gold Coast from Japan and Thailand, not only Gold Coast residents.

YUME- YUI '16 PINK FlyerWe will produce a brilliant stage to make a bright future realizing everyone’s dream.

I was in Japan when the earthquake happened.

My hometown is close to the area where explosions occurred at the reactors because of the earthquake and radioactive materials were leaking from the plant.

I can remember everything as if things happened yesterday.

Now I live on the Gold Coast, but I don’t think I can forget about that.

SWAN FITNESS performance members and I will gladly join YUME-YUI ’16 (←Click this for more information about the concert).

Tickets available

http://www.somerset.qld.edu.au/events/yume-concert/

A part of the profit will be donated to non-profit organization KATARIBA.

Look forward to our concert!

Definition of being on the right diet

Boot Camp, ZUMBA, , , ,

There is health risk if you cut down weight in a short time dramatically.

Do you know 3 essential things are definitely needed to lose weight?

1, 30-60 mins cardio exercise like jogging or bike everyday9b587917c9731a5f08bce96a01b09abc_s

2, 2-3 times muscle training a week50a710f6d6ff2127061e751578d56926_s

3, Suitable cutting consumption is 3500 kcal a week

It is said that the best pace for cutting down 1 kg of weight is 2 weeks.

So if you want to lose 5 kg, you’d better take 10 weeks.

Why don’t you join our Tuesday programme: ZUMBA 9:30-10:15 am (for cardio exercise) and Mayumi’s Short Boot Camp 10:15-10:45 am (for muscle training with dumbbells and tubes) from the 5th of January 2016?

Decline of basal metabolism by aging causes overweight constitution

Boot Camp, ZUMBA,

The amount of food you eat hasn’t changed and exercise is also carried out regularly, but you have gained weight. Why?

Do you know decline of basal metabolism by aging causes overweight constitution?

2715167ad107982190de65bc144102f5_sWhat is basal metabolism?

Basal metabolism is the minimum amount of energy required to maintain vital functions in an organism at complete rest.

If you muscle mass increases, your basal metabolism also increases. Exercise is necessary to keep our healthy weight.

bb590e2dc71e5b59aaa36613c144112d_sThe human body tends to get used to the load by exercising quickly, so we have to reprogram our exercise periodically.

We need a good balance of both cardio exercise and muscle training to lose weight.

Cutting the volume of food we eat can’t help making a beautiful body shape.

A new lesson will start from the 5th of January 2016!

Mayumi's Short Boot Camp

I used to run lots of muscle training lessons by using dumbbells and tubes in my 11 aerobics instructor years.

I will show you how to exercise with dumbbells and tubes.

 

Bring your own 2 dumbbells and a tube although they are not compulsory.

Joy of releasing energy at once

ZUMBA, , ,

We could achieve 2 big jobs: Merry ZUMBA® Christmas!

This edited video is from Southport Community Centre (12/12/2015).

 

 

My career as a free-lance fitness instructor like Aerobics, Step,

Kid’s Hip Hop and ZUMBA® is over 15 years. Most of it was in my country.

In my early instructor period, I used to have around 16 lessons a week and I met one aerobics instructor who had only one lesson a week.

Her lesson was great and the most popular in the sports club.

I asked her why she didn’t run more lessons and she answered,

” I have a family, so I can’t do many lessons. I want to produce this class with my heart and mind and strength. So one lesson a week is enough for me.”

Then I couldn’t understand what she meant and thought she may be a bit weird.

But what she said was impressive and I have never forgotten it.

P1000113Recently I am getting to understand what she said.

Now I can’t run fitness lesson over 10 a week because I am not so young.

Instead I think I can concentrate my effort on each lesson these days.

To charge energy and release it at once is a joy which I couldn’t get in my early instructor years.

This edited video is from Helensvale Library & Culture Centre (7/12/2015).

Everyone’s bright expression motivated me a lot.

The ZUMBA® lessons at Southport Community Centre haven’t finished yet. We have 2 more lessons this year.

Tuesday the 15th 9:30-10:15 am

Saturday the 19th 9:00-10:00 am

See you next week too!

Thank you!!

SWAN FITNESS Performance Members ( Instructors)

SWAN FITNESS Performance Members are mostly composed of young generation adults like working holiday people and students except for one person. It’s been just one year since it formed in November 2014. The members have changed a lot, but each performer each has different talents. Honestly speaking, I didn’t think these performance members would continue. But all members’ passion for each dance style has supported the group.
