Kiwa Dance Fitness in Parksville offers a unique and gentle dance fitness program that aims to keep participants fit and flexible while having fun and making new friends. The classes are held at 115-425 Stanford Avenue in Parksville on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The drop-in rate is $5 per class, but discounted rates are available with a punch card or monthly pass. The first class is free, and class sizes are limited, so reserving a spot is recommended.
The program encourages participants to move and groove to tropical rhythms from various destinations and emphasizes that it's not about the ability to dance perfectly, but rather about a willingness to move and feel good while doing so. The classes are designed to be inclusive and welcoming, with an emphasis on being yourself, moving at your own pace, and embracing imperfection.
Kiwa Dance Fitness embodies the island life and a sense of community, with participants referred to as ohana, which means family in Hawaiian. Regular participants become part of the ohana and are eligible for discounts and early access to new classes. The program is run by Sherri Fransila, a certified group fitness instructor with expertise in older adults and exercise for knee and hip replacements, as well as dance fitness modalities.
