ZUMBA® takes the work out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and World rhythms take over, you'll see why Zumba® Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise.
ZUMBA® TONING is for those who want a dance party, but also want to tone and sculpt muscles! The challenge of adding resistance by using Zumba® Toning Sticks (or light weights), helps you focus on specific muscle groups, so you (and your muscles) stay engaged.

GENERAL INFORMATION
CONDUCT ORDINANCE
In 2004, the Board of Park Commissioners adopted a comprehensive Conduct Ordinance that relates to the use of the parks and property owned, operated, maintained, or controlled by Palatine Park District. A copy of this ordinance can be viewed at palatineparks.org under the About Us Now tab.
PARTICIPANT CODE OF CONDUCT
In addition to the Conduct Ordinance of 2004, the Board of Park Commissioners has also approved Administrative Policy 2.13.1, Code of Conduct. This code of conduct is the minimum expected behavior of every participant to ensure the safety and positive experience of all involved. The District uses a three pillar positive behavior program as the platform to define the expected behavior of all participants. This platform is aligned and consistent with the program used within the local elementary schools to create consistency among children and parents whether at school or play at the park district. This Code of Conduct is also aligned and tied to the District’s Anti-bullying policy and the District’s Participant Disciplinary Policy when rules and expectations of the positive behavior program are violated. A copy of this policy can be viewed online at palatineparks.org under the About Us Now tab.
CLASS DISMISSAL GUIDELINES
All children 11 and under are to remain in the classroom until a parent or authorized person comes into the classroom to pick them up. Parents are required to sign their child in and out of each class.
Parents of children ages 7–11 may opt to complete a Class Dismissal Permission Slip. This will allow the child to be released at the end of the scheduled class without a parent present. These forms are available from your child’s instructor. A separate form will be required for each class attended and every new session.
ADULT SUPERVISION
When not participating in a class, children under 7 years old must be accompanied by an adult while in Park District facilities.
CHILD ENDANGERMENT
Any authorized person who exhibits signs of an impaired condition due to alcohol or drugs will not be allowed to leave a program site with the child/children.
