SHiNE Dance Fitness Classes Come To San Ramon

SAN RAMON, CA — SHiNE Dance Fitness, a national dance fitness class that provides a full-body workout to current hit music, is making its East Bay debut in San Ramon.

Classes are offered at the Alcosta Senior & Community Center at 9300 Alcosta Boulevard Tuesday and Thursday at 5:30 p.m., and Friday at 4:30 p.m. Online classes are also available through shinedancefitness.com.

San Ramon classes are being taught by Danville resident Julie McGill, a marketing consultant who taught another dance fitness program for five years. “I recently switched to SHiNE because it reflects what I believe in: that fitness can be fun and is more than just a great workout,” McGill told Patch in an email.

“Julie showered us with treats, swag and T-shirts. The camaraderie and community she's created is incredible. I can't wait to continue her classes!” said student Roberta Gabriel, who was taking her first full class since undergoing a difficult surgery to treat stage IV appendix cancer.

SHiNE costs less than $10 a class for San Ramon residents, and three-day bundle pricing is available. Students can register through sanramonrecguide.com.
