I want to tell you a little about how I started going to Zumba classes. I saw it advertised on TV and it looked like fun. Then I saw that our local Anytime Fitness provided classes. So I went and found out that a good friend of mine was an instuctor. She made the class so fun. It was fun doing the different dance steps and great getting to know the other girls (1 guy). I got such a good workout and had such a fantastic esperience that I have been going consistently now for 9 months. I have lost some weight and toned my body. I still have a long way to go, but it's an effective way to exercise. I'd like to hear some feedback or comments about Zumba.
I originally was looking for Latin american dance but there was nothing close by. I stumbled over something called salsacise which was dancy aerobics I guess with lots of salsa moves. The instructor tried zumba on is and almost everyone prefered it as it was higher impact. I am the only guy in the group I attend and as far as I know one of only 2 in the whole of the scottish borders :) Isn't that a shame ! I really enjoy it, nice bunch of people (once the ladies had got over their initial suspicions of what they thought I was doing there !!) It makes a great change from running. Haven't noticed a great deal of change in weight but there's plenty of "feel good" through doing it ...
