Are you feeling stressed, and like you’re in desperate need of a break from those endless papers and tests? One of the best ways to clear your head is through exercising. I know, one of the most difficult things to do in the cold weather is to throw on your workout clothes, get to the gym, and hop on that boring elliptical. Especially when it’s dark outside. No motivation, whatsoever. I feel you.
If you’re looking for a fun way to clear your head, exercise, and hang with your friends, then head over to The Z Spot for Zumba®. The Z Spot is Boston’s first studio dedicated to bringing Zumba®, fitness and dance to the Greater Boston community. It was voted best Zumba® in Boston in 2013 and 2014. Its new location is conveniently located right across the street from Berklee College of Music and is just minutes from Newbury and Boylston Street, which is extremely convenient for us BU girls.
The Z Spot’s classes are offered at reasonable prices for college students.

I spoke with Lena Andrade, the owner and director of the business and asked her what advice she would give to a college student who wants to try Zumba®, but is completely new to it.
“Taking a Zumba® class makes you feel better about yourself and feel empowered; it doesn’t matter if you haven’t taken a fitness class, you might discover almost a new talent. There are many benefits to taking Zumba®: it’ll make you feel good, you don’t have to worry about how you look, it doesn’t matter what level you’re on,” Lena said.
Zumba® is a perfect way to clear your head before taking those final exams that will be here before you know it. Grab your girls, set your books aside, and check out The Z Spot’s new location in Back Bay!
