Country Fusion is fifty-minute non-stop dance total body workout and long term fitness program featuring numerous easy-to-learn choreographed dances that get students moving at various impact levels. The fat-blasting interval workout increases your heart rate which then speeds up your metabolism to burn up to 500 calories per session. The dance aspect teaches participants how to dance, promotes flexibility, and perfects posture alignment. Together, the result is healthy weight loss, a tightened body, and soaring self-esteem.
“My vision for Country Fusion was to create a fun fitness program that helps participants get into shape, feel empowered and express themselves through dance,” said Ms. Mooney De Gennaro. “I look forward to taking the workout nationwide with the release of the Country Fitness DVD that is now available and with the certification of new Country Fusion Instructors.” The first instructor certification class will take place this Saturday, September 24th from 10 AM to 5 PM and Dreams Dance in Ledgewood and additional certification classes are being scheduled in various locations.
Ms. Mooney De Gennaro holds Country Fusion classes at various locations throughout Morris County, New Jersey including Dream Dance Studio in Ledgewood, Hanover Township Recreation in Whippany, Boonton Recreation in Boonton Township, and Roxbury Recreation in Succasunna.
