    Who DOESN'T Zumba is a better question! :smile: I started two weeks ago, twice a week. I can now feel "abs"...I remember those! I also am starting to get, what my best friend's hubby calls "Guns". My son even noticed more definition in my arms.

    Love it! Always shocked at how sweaty I am at the end. Having so much fun I never notice until its over! Keep it up! Makes you use muscles you normally don't.

    Oh yes, LOVE IT. I will say, there are many ways to do Zumba...ALL OUT...where you will lose or like a lot of people I see at the gym and it is without much effort so you won't see much loss. So, do it with gusto and you will see a difference.

    Yes, love it, have definition where I didn't know muscle existed! It's been fantastic for my butt, great for the last bit of flab on my arms, and of course my abs and legs!

    yes I love it as well. I think its a fun way to get some excercise in without feeling like you are working out. Kind of like bringing the club to the gym lol. I just started a month ago and I do other workouts as well so I don't know exactly what it is helping. But I do know by the end of the class I feel it everywhere I need to.

    It is Faith Assembly on Firestore road- from 103rd street pass forest high school and keep going and the Church is down the road on the left. I called and it cost $7 per session so I decided against it. I was thinking it would be a ministry maybe $2 or something- not $7. LOL SO I decided to do other exercises. Thanks
