What do Zumba® and improvisation have in common? They're both very difficult when you try them for the first time(s), they're both creative outlets, and they're both tons of fun!
Susan Wagner is an AFAA Group Fitness Instructor, and she teaches both in-person and virtual Zumba® classes and other fitness classes. The dance/gym floor is Susan's stage, and her stage presence and ability to make her audience feel comfortable (while dancing!) set her apart and make her a fantastic, one-of-a-kind instructor.
In this episode, we discuss how Susan uses public speaking and improvisation skills in her role as a group fitness instructor, and it actually surprises her to realize how much they are all related. Improv skills help her develop the best choreography for her class and also adjust quickly if something unexpected comes up during class...and there is always something unexpected that comes up!
Connection is a big buzzword in this episode, and it's the name of the game for everything we do - dance fitness classes, improv scenes, meetings, presentations, relationships, and everything else not listed here. 😄
