Free Zumba Class,  Wednesdays during the lunch hour (Clinton Square)

How’s this for a lunch date.

Metro Fitness, under the direction of Randy Sabourin, has partnered with the City to offer free Zumba classes every Wednesday this summer (from 12:15 to 12:45) in Clinton Square.  Sabourin has been a personal fitness instructor downtown for about 20 years. He hopes the Zumba class and partnership will help get Central New York residents, especially those living and working downtown, in better shape.

The Metro Fitness club is located in Salina Place a few blocks from Clinton Square.

Despite serious humidity and hazy sun, men, women and children decided to sweat and dance their way thru lunch.

According to Sabourin, the class yesterday was one of the smaller classes so far (more than a dozen participants).  The classes began last month and will run thru Labor Day.
