This may be a silly question, but I'm taking a Zumba class next week and I want to know what is the right attire to wear?

  • You're going to get super sweaty. So a tank or light T-shirt and capris are usually a must. I like to wear neon colours so I glow in the black lights but thats just me.lol. No real rules just be comfortable.

    Whatever you'd normally wear to feel comfortable during an intense, fun work out :) Definitely comfy shoes! My zumba class has 100+ people in it and you'll have people wearing everything from official zumba clothing (tm) to jeans and sweatshirts (I don't recommend the latter). I wear a tshirt and capris.

    One big suggestion is to double up your support of the "girls". There's a lot of jumping going on and I double up on my sports bras. Don't wear running shoes though-cross trainers are better.

    I have a really good Cahmpion sports bra I bought a couple of years ago because I'm a 34D and that's a lot to be flying around :) Thank you for reminding me to dig it out!

    My Zumba class has no blacklights! Now I feel cheated :( I just wear yoga pants and a tshirt. A good sport bra is also a great idea.
