August Zumba Playlist
I’m so proud: Next month (September 2010), I will have been posting my Zumba playlists for one year.
I try to add one or two new songs per week, but that doesn’t always happen. There are two songs that I am still using one whole year later and they are warm ups. I’ve tried to retire them, but as soon as they disappear, someone asks for them back. I guess they’re here to stay…
