AUBURN – “If you can move, you can Groove,” said YMCA wellness director Tish Caldwell.

Caldwell said of the new Group Groove exercise class, “You’ll stomp, flick, wriggle, hip, hop, snap, shimmy, shake, slide, glide, smile and laugh your way through this 60-minute fitness dance program. You’ll experience a fusion of club, urban and Latin dance styles with motivating chart topping hits and retro classic tunes. Our supportive, funky, easy going instructors will help you get a move on with Group Groove.”

Each class will start with a warm-up to get participants loose and ready to move. They will then experience seven songs taking them through the different dance styles.

Group Groove is for anyone of any age who wants to have fun and also sweat a bit. Because Group Groove is a cardiovascular fitness program, people can do it once a week or groove everyday.

The YMCA is offering a free Group Groove class for adults at 5:15 p.m. Friday, Jan. 18. Participants must register in advance by calling 795-4095 or stopping by the YMCA front desk prior to Jan. 18.
