ZUMBA
Zumba is actually much more than a simple exercise routine. It’s more like a fitness class meets dance lessons. The word Zumba is Columbian slang and means “to move fast and have fun.” But instead of just utilizing the dance moves or motions of salsa or other Latin-themed rhythms, Zumba uses everything it can and then some. The dance steps are derived from a variety of styles including: cumbia, merengue, salsa, reggaeton, hip hop, mambo, rumba, flamenco, calypso and Salsaton.
MASSAGE
There’s no denying the power of bodywork. At the Growing Green Co-op, our massage therapy can be a powerful ally in your healthcare regimen. Massage can, without a doubt, help manage stress in addition to treating conditions such low-back pain, labor for expectant mothers, medication dependence, stagnant lymph flow, weak, tight, or atrophied muscles, recovery from strenuous workouts, depression and anxiety and poor circulation.
SAUNA
Regular use of the Co-op's infrared sauna gradually restores the skin's elimination of toxic chemicals and metals faster than other detox methods. Infrared heat has some distinct advantages over traditional steam heat saunas. Infrared heat therapy uses the wavelength of the visible and non-visible light spectrum which heats the body normally just like normal sunlight. In the infrared sauna, the body perspires and receives all of the healthy benefits but avoids the harmful and extremely hot air of a traditional steam sauna.
All donations support the operations of the Growing Green Co-op's community center and healing arts space.
