Chair Zumba Reviews
Heather Glen Senior Living
"Danny comes to our Community about twice a month for Chair Zumba and to entertain as well. Saying the residents love him is an understatement. They adore him! All I have to say to the residents is that Danny is coming and they make sure to be there. He is energetic, funny, talented, and just a joy to be around. We are so lucky that he comes to Heather Glen!"

“Having Danny Grae instruct the chair Zumba class for us at Heather Glen Senior Living, is always a fun time! Danny’s enthusiasm and energy keeps our resident’s moving. And I also need to say Danny is a talented singer, he shows such Love and has so much Charisma, that he has our resident’s coming back for more…”

"We are so happy to have Danny Grae with us at Moravian Village. Not only do our residents look forward to Chair Zumba class each week but they also look forward to seeing their dear friend Danny. Each class is lively, interactive, and filled with laughter. Class members get the benefits of exercise and movement in a supportive and positive way.
Beside Danny’s Zumba classes he also performs Second Friday vocal concerts for us several times a year. We enjoy these concerts and Danny’s spirit, vocals, and enthusiasm!"

"When Danny walks into our Event Cottage he brings ENERGY, FUN ENTHUSIASM & PASSION.
He greets each resident with a smile, a hug and a warm greeting.
The music is loud and the beat gets them moving - Danny in front of the crowd leading them through the moves. He sings, dances, tells stories and motivates each one of them - by name - he knows them - he remembers them - he is one of a kind - we are grateful for ZUMBA with Danny."

Personal review from Carole Zarayko (former Managing Director Of All Facility Activities)
I have been a "FAN" for many Years and watched my residents who had no real enjoyment or participation in activities until you hit the scene. You put joy in their heart, movement in their muscles and bones and Laughter in their voices. You lifted their spirits and gave them a reason to leave their rooms, because our Danny was coming. Thank You Danny, you indeed have been assigned a lifetime Mission from God. May God Bless you and Susan with many many years of Joy, and Love you give His Children. From my Heart Thank You 🙏🙏🙏🙏💓💓💖💖💖💝💝

"Danny Grae has been a blessing to our community. I truly believe it's all about the person's want and desire to do what they do that gives a person the added treasure value to their work ethic, and it is clear that Danny has a passion for what he does. Danny is dearly loved by every single one of our residents in our personal care home. No matter what Danny comes to do for the day, whether it's Chair Zumba, Musical Entertainment, or just a game to please the crowd, he manages to pull even the most difficult of residents out of their rooms with a smile on their face. I am almost afraid of posting such a positive review for the fear of everyone else wanting to hire him and take time away from us! Danny Grae – one of a kind – you heard it here first!"

It was a challenge doing Chair Zumba with this wonderful group of people, but such a pleasurable one!
They followed well and were amazing at dancing in their seats! A good time was had by all with many, many laughs! |
