Parents can work out while their kids do arts and crafts or build Legos during a new Zumba class being offered at the The Little Gym of Rockville Centre at 5:30 p.m. every Thursday beginning Feb. 7.
“I know as a mom, I don’t get to work out as much as I’d like because I’m with my kids all the time,” says owner Ali Murphy. This way, parents can get a class in while their kids are enjoying kid-focused activities, she says. “We’re all about kids’ activities, because we’re a Little Gym,” she says.
Each one-hour Zumba class is $20 per adult, and each child is $5. Kids must be at least 3 years old, and activities will be geared to ages 3 to 12, with kids separated into age groups, she says. Parents should sign up in advance to guarantee a spot. The Little Gym of Rockville Centre is at 298 Merrick Rd., Rockville Centre. To register or for more information, call 516-764-1600 or visit thelittlegym.com/rockvillecentreny.
