Equal out the St Paddy’s Day Boozefest with ReelFit!
Fee diddly dee potatoes! It’s March 17 and St Paddy’s Day and I’m excited! The one day of the year where we celebrate all things Irish – drinking, drinking and well… drinking!
But this St Paddy’s Day you can enjoy a night of drinking AND dancing (which might help equal out the drinking) at the launch of ReelFit – the NEW Irish dance-fitness program for adults touted to outshine zumba. The launch, which will showcase some of the region’s best Irish dancers, will start at 7.30pm this Saturday (March 19) at the Redcliffe RSL and there will be three double passes to the opening night of Riverdance – The Farewell Tour up for grabs.
Tickets to the launch $12.50 for adults, $7.50 for children or $35 a family will be sold at the door.
ReelFit, which blends the best of Irish dancing with core strength and fitness exercises, was developed by founder of local Irish dancing school Scoil Ard Rince, Breeda Peirce.
She said ReelFit would help participants increase their stamina and tone up their legs and abs.
“ReelFit makes exercising fun … you don’t even realise you’re getting a workout because you’re too busy concentrating on the steps, there’s no exercise class like it,’’ she said.
“If you’ve watched the amazing athleticism of the dancers in Riverdance and wished you could be like that, then sign up.’’
Ms Peirce said newcomers need not worry about ReelFit being too difficult.
“We make it very easy starting with basics and building up to the more complex steps later on,’’ she said.
ReelFit classes, which cost $10 a class, will run on Wednesday nights from 7.30-8.30pm, starting on March 23, at Level 2, 7/34 Baynes St, Margate. Bulimba and Sunshine Coast classes coming soon.
