ZUMBA!!!

coold

We've been holding Zumba classes after school in the gymnasium. We contacted a local instructor and she was willing to come in twice a week. I LOVE it!!!!! I enjoy the challenge of getting the moves right, but I also don't get hung up on it and just dance, dance, dance! I left there this afternoon a dripping mess. Our instructor is GREAT and pushes us - I think we are down to only one break now for our hour class. OMG! Never would have thought I could do it, either!

awesome!!!!!:flowerforyou: DO u have ANY idea how much u are burning ????

I got Nike: Musique IV from Zappos...they seem to run 1/2 size smaller than regular shoe size...I love them...they have a circle on the bottom that allows you to slide rather than get "stuck"...regarding the calories burned...obviously the more you weigh the more you will burn...it is a great work out as long as you put your "all" into it...

i cannot express how much i LOVE zumba!

i enter it as circuit training for 60 minutes. i've heard it burns about 500 cals. so MFP tells me 60 mins of circuit training is 530 cals.

i go twice a week. if i could afford it, id go much more often! good luck, and i hope you begin to love it as much as i do. its all i talk about anymore! :bigsmile:

Zumba is the best thing!! =D ... The classes are my favorite because I like to go some where to work out ... not to mention it's just fun! I am sure that I make a FOOL of myself! haha

We have some DVDs that me friends and I do, going every week got expensive. I will check with them and see what the dvd's are. =D

There needs to be a Zumba option in the database! haha

I bet there are tons for sale on Ebay. I'd check there first-you can get almost ANYTHING on Ebay. Good luck! I have the videos but our VCR bit the dust.

I totally agree!!! I don't have a heart rate monitor so I'm logging it in as high impact aerobics.

thanks for checking which DVD's your friends have!!! i'm soooo tired today. All I did was ride my bike 30 minutes.

Zumba is so much fun and I look like a fool TOO!!!HAHA....who cares!!! we are MOVING to fun music!!!
