Don't let your parents go old-school this winter and just throw on another jersey to beat the cold.

They deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about their power bills, or their health.

They might be eligible for Warmer Kiwi Homes, a government grant offering 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.

And they may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

Go to warmerkiwihomes.govt.nz to check their eligibility.

Are you ready to shake up your routine and have some fun? Do you want to burn calories, tone muscles, and boost your mood?

Then join us for Zumba with Rob, the ultimate dance-fitness party!

Zumba is more than just a workout. It’s a way to express yourself, connect with others, and discover new rhythms. You’ll learn moves from salsa, merengue, cumbia, reggaeton, and more. No dance experience required. Just follow Rob’s lead and enjoy the music.

But wait, there’s more! Zumba also has some unexpected benefits that you might not know about. Here are some of them:

Zumba can improve your brain function and memory. Dancing stimulates different parts of your brain and helps you learn new skills.

Zumba can reduce stress and anxiety. Dancing releases endorphins, the feel-good hormones that make you happy.
Zumba can boost your immune system and lower your blood pressure.

Dancing increases your heart rate and blood circulation, which helps your body fight off infections and diseases.
Zumba can make you more confident and attractive. Dancing improves your posture, balance, and coordination, which enhances your appearance and self-esteem.

So what are you waiting for? Grab your friends and join us for Zumba with Rob every Monday at 4.45pm at Tahapa Crescent Hall Meadowbank.

It’s only a $10 investment in you per class.

Don’t miss this chance to have fun and get fit. See you on the dance floor!
