    When should you do Zumba? Because you like it. Because you have fun doing it. Don't worry if you look like an injured baboon. That is a stage that will pass. You don't walk like you did when you first starting walking. You will get better with practice. The best people to dance with are the people who are enjoying themselves not the ones who are the best. The ones who are enjoying themselves smile and are wanting you to join in the fun.

    i agree i do better every week, and every week i look less and less like a dying water buffelo

    You can't look any worse than me LOL :)

    OMG you people are making me nervous - I am finally going to try my first ever Zumba class on Wednesday and I am scared silly!

    Don't be nervous. It's a TON of fun! Just get out there and do what you can. You'll be surprised at how supportive the veteran Zumba-ers are. Just find someone who looks like they know what they're doing, stand behind them, and mimic the moves they make. I find it hard to follow the instructor because I have to mirror them, but if I can stand behind someone it's a lot easier for me.

    Oops...my quote didn't work right sorry! :ohwell:




    That's great advice! Beside the fact that I have no rythem I may have been making it harder than it needed to be by trying to mirror the wii instructor...Ok now I'm feeling encouraged to go to a Zumba class and stand at the back of the line :)
