Sorry for being MIA, but I've been cramming for the AFAA this past week...phew! It's been a long week.
Taking things baaaaaack a bit...
One of our zumba head instructors, Sara, was kind enough to have a study session for some of her zumba girls this past week. She had us over for dinner and to help us with our studying. Here are some photos from our study session:
Yummy lasagna, caesar salad, and garlic bread.
And let's not forget dessert. I had 2 of these delish funfetti sugar cookies with frosting and sprinkles.
A little vino
Muscle man! The muscles were very important because they're on the exam AND because you have to do demonstrations for strength and flexibility moves for the muscles when you do the practical part of the AFAA primary exam.
Getting pointers on my merengue for my individual presentation.
Soph dog was our mascot for the evening. She's so cute with her little hair-do!
Soph loves Megan!!
The study session was awesome and I'm so thankful to Sara for taking the time not only make us dinner but for taking the time to help us prepare for the AFAA.
THANK SARA!!!!!!!!!!
Yummy meal!!!! Everything about it! What a great idea to do dinner and study. I wish you the best with the exam!!

How great to have friends (and a great instructor!!!) to study with. Not many people get to study w/ yummy food and vino ;-)
Love the funfetti cookies! (What can I say, I am a sucker for sprinkles)

Having difficulty posting here, will try again.
Hi, thank you so much for this blog. I am preparing for my certificate with my test day on Sept 9th (looming right there)
I am terrified as I have never taught any fitness-yoga - nothing except fashion design, I was a fashion designer in my past life and now and transitioning ;0
I did try the links you posted Group Fit Power as I need all the tips I can get, but it only goes to an unrelated site. I loved the videos especially #1 and will learn a lot from that.
Any other tips? I got it loud and clear about the muscle group demo and flex demo.
is the test all multiple choice?
On the muscle groups do they ask you for the names of the muscles?
