Come and hit the dance floor with us at “Groove Beyond”, a Zumba all inclusive FUNdraiser organized by members of Zumba Vermont and The EDGE on Sunday, October 12th, 10-11:30am. The event is a benefit for Green Mountain Adaptive Sports.
THE EDGE Sports and Fitness in Essex Junction, and members of Zumba Vermont are graciously donating space, time, energy, music, talent, and more, and inviting members of the community for a morning of Zumba dancing, in support of a great cause!
Instructor Regina Patterson and her team will lead the dance party starting at 10am. Groove Beyond is open to the public and dancers of all ages and abilities are encouraged to join the dynamic, exciting, fun and easy to follow Zumba dance. No experience is necessary, and participants simply need to bring athletic shoes, a water bottle, and a smile!
A $20 suggested donation will be collected at the door. Participants can also bid on silent auction items generously donated by local and area businesses. Donated refreshments will be available free of charge.

Green Mountain Adaptive Sports is a Vermont-based non-profit founded in 2010 on the belief that access to sports and recreational programs are a powerful means for people with disabilities to develop independence as well as physical and mental well-being. We focus on getting people out and having fun. We value the effect our programs have on entire families.
GMAS offers scholarships to Vermont residents wishing to participate in its adaptive sports programs. GMAS presently offered nine adaptive programs, and serves over 125 families annually.
