I am sooo uncoordinated and they move so fast! I did sweat however, probably from moving/flapping/kicking every part of my body while trying to copy them lol

It's still fun, and it gets easier. Keep going back, everyone had to start where you are now. You'll see a big improvement quickly.0

The more you go the easier it gets, trust me!0

I was the same way!! Lol wasn't the workout for me!!!0 -
I hear you! Did Zumba on the Kinect and it played it back to me.. Yeah i looked like a damn fool!0
-
I wasn't crazy about it.0

i agree with the above posters, keep going the moves will come in time.
so long as you have fun, sweat, and keep moving somewhat in time with the music ITS ALL GOOD!0 -
Haha...yes that would be me as well...I've been curious if there is a good Zumba workout tape or Zumba for the Wii....has anyone tried that?0
-
I'm not a dance kind of person.
I am now a convert to kettlebells. Cardio and weights all in one.
It's fun!0 -
It took me a few classes, as long as I went when it was the same instructor, to get the stuff down. If you enjoyed it keep going. For me it wasn't hardcore enough but it was a fun thing to do on the side.0

I always thought I had pretty decent rhythm, going dancing with the girls and such. Zumba makes me feel a bit like a klutz. But I still enjoy it. It does get easier after a while. If you enjoy the music and the moves, I say try it a few more times.0

you will get better at it trust me! I was all over the place when i started doing it on the wii. my balance was awful! =/. the more i practiced the better i got just takes time, you will get there0
-
i've never tried it because i know i would fail so bad! try it a couple more times, and if you hate it, find another class you actually like!0
-
I'm a Zumba disaster too. But I keep going, since I burn in excess of 500 calories in an hour. Even uncoordinated people still burn a ton0

KEEP IT UP!!!!!!! Dont worry about keeping it up, its all good. You will adventually get it, as long as ur moving you r burning so just enjoy it, I love it!!:bigsmile:0

I agree. The more you go the better it gets. It may not help your coordination but its fun and it works. Go for it.0
-

ZUMBA = an introverts worst nightmare!
No thanks!0 -
Dont stop going! I swear you will learn the moves and the workout is AMAZING! Everyone starts off that way. Stick to it and you won't regret it!0

Tell you what I know,......I'm 51 and the First time I went to Zumba, I was the Bigest Gal there, But not the Oldest, So I got with the Hens and they told me this, What Ever you do Just Keep Moving! I Did and am wondering why I'm Not doing Zumba now! You can do it!0

There is a Zumba game for Wii, XBox Kinnect and PS3 Move. I have it for the Move. Fun stuff! There are DVDs available as well. I love the express 20 minute workout for days when you're short on time. The games and videos are cool, but I love taking an actual Zumba class the most0
