Kids’ Dance, Yoga, & Creative Movement Classes at Joe’s Movement Emporium + FREE CLASS!
If you’ve seen my post here about the Adults’ Movement Classes at Joe’s Movement Emporium in Mt. Rainier, then you’ve noticed how much I enjoy movin’ and shakin’ (ideally more movin’ than shakin’ but still…). So it should come as no surprise to learn that my young ones love to get movin’, too!

Get Movin’ at Joe’s Movement Emporium (+ FREE CLASS!)
All Smiles After the Carribean Vibes Cardio Class! One of my New Year’s Resolutions is to get movin’ again, plain and simple.

Rainier reached out to invite me to check out their new Adult Movement Classes! Their timing was perfect! From Hip Hop Dance, Caribbean Vibes Cardio, and Salsa to […]
