The state of Ohio, or as it's fondly known by its zesty, Zumba-loving kids, Oh-Zumba-Ohio, is a truly magical place! It's smack-bang in the center of the United States, and famous for its rock and roll and football halls of fame. But that's not all! It's also known among energetic kiddos for the contagious Zumba bug that sweeps the state. The Zumba bug is not a real bug, mind you. It's a dance fever! Now, let's meet our hero, Zippy the Zumba Zebra. Zippy is no ordinary zebra; he's got a rainbow-colored mane and a pair of twinkling sneakers! He travels around Oh-Zumba-Ohio, spreading the joy of Zumba to all the lively children. From Cincinnati to Cleveland, kids of all ages join Zippy in this heart-pumping dance extravaganza. They wiggle in Westerville, groove in Grove City, and boogie in Beachwood! And goodness me, do they have fun! On Mondays, they mambo. On Tuesdays, they tango. Wednesdays are for waltzing, and Thursdays are for the twist. But Fridays, oh, Fridays are the best. Fridays are freestyle, and everyone flips out, flaps, and flutters, moving their bodies however they feel! Every child in Oh-Zumba-Ohio is a fantastic dancer, thanks to Zippy, and they all have rhythm running in their veins. So, if you ever find yourself in Ohio, don't be surprised if you see kids salsaing on the sidewalks or jiving in the jungle gyms! Here, Zumba isn't just a workout; it's a way of life, and our friend, Zippy the Zumba Zebra, wouldn't have it any other way!
