Cardio Funks Comes to Lost Worlds! Meet Lem Houston

Three’s a new Saturday vibe starting March 6th when the Biergarten will be filled with funk — cardio funk that is! What is Cardio Funk, you ask? It’s a full hour of fun, with high-energy cardio dance routines set to pop and hip hop music.

Houston claims that you can easily shed 400 to 600 calories, shakin’ your booty and bringing your flair to easy to learn routines. He started teaching cardio classes at the YMCA and found that this was the best way to work out and loose weight, while having a blast dancing. He moved his classes outdoors during the pandemic and has an engaged and supportive audience all over the Charlotte area.

According to Michelle Boudin, WCNC news reporter and long-time fan, dancing with Lem is her favorite way to workout because it doesn’t feel like working out. “He’s also just the best guy to be around- so motivating and full of positive energy, says Boudin. The moves are easy to pick up but keep you moving the whole time so by the end of class you’ve burned hundreds of calories and feel energized. I always leave smiling and looking forward to the next class — Lem is just the best!”

The class is $10 and includes a wooden nickel to redeem for a post-workout beverage. Cardio Funk will be held outside with plenty of room to socially distance — or twerk, pop and drop it!

“I’m excited to bring a new energy to the brewery on Saturday mornings!",” says Lem Houston.
