    Zumba intimidates me lol I see the other ladies doing it and I just think I'm not coordinated enough and I'll look like a fool. I did tell myself it's my next benchmark reward though.

    If you have a gaming system, get the Zumba2, don't know what it is called on x-Box but it is the same "dances," and workout by yourself. I did that and then my job had a health and fitness day where they had a Zumba class, I was able to keep up. In fact I was one of two people (we were older) who could keep up and finish the entire class.

    I love zumba! I usually go twice a week; it's the only cardio exercise I've ever really enjoyed.

    I was shy and intimidated by the class at first, so I went with a friend. At it turns out, there were ladies from 16 to 60, and from very fit to overweight beginners. When I first started going in February I would follow some of the older ladies... smaller movements, bouncing instead of jumping, stepping instead of stomping, and so on. Now that I've lost a little weight and I'm fitter I can keep up with the instructor a lot better!

    I've also tried the game for wii... I know lots of people like it, but I was disappointed. For me it's just not as fun as going to class.
