B.M.C. Durfee High School students had a chance to try kick boxing as an exercise routine thanks to the efforts of technology teacher Sue Dunse who invited Personal Trainer Amy Jones of  Where Is The Work-Out to offer a class. Cardio Kickboxing borrows moves from the Thai sport of kickboxing to make participants work up a sweat. Amy put some seniors through their paces on March 5, 2008 at the school's fitness Center which attracts dozens of students after school to keep themselves fit. Sue would like to see the kick boxing workout become a regular event at the school and is working to find the funding to make it happen. For more information, contact Sue Dunse at 508-675-8100.
