Z Club NY, New York

It all began with a party. When Z Club NY co-founder Claudia Salem was invited by business partner Edmee Cherdieu D’Alexis to a Zumba party at S.O.B.’s in New York, she was expecting a fun and invigorating workout. But the passion and energy emanating from the crowd made her realize that she was witnessing something more. Claudia and Edmee strive to recreate that same atmosphere at every Z Club location, by employing personable customer service reps, maintaining pristine facilities, and scheduling seven different Zumba variations. The schedule includes classes held seven days a week and a regular series of events.
