    If you want you can go on YouTube and try a bit before class. Here is my list of links for a beginner:
    Zumba YouTube Workout 1 hour. One of these links teaches you some basic moves. The problem for me is the down load time so definitely go to a class.

    Yes, you should go, go go!!! It's great! I've been going on Saturday's for a couple of months, and I look forward to it all week. i would go more if the classes fit into my schedule; but alas, I have to settle for Saturdays!

    My mom even goes wtih me sometimes. She is 65 and not coordinated at all! My daughter went with me this spring break, and she is a dancer. It's for everyone! Our instructor even tells us if we are going one way and the class is going the other to just wave as they pass you. Just keep moving, and you'll be fine. The music is great.

    Don't give up if you feel awkward the first time. It's taken me all this time to really get into moving and being more free. But I love it, and after reading all of these comments, I think you will too!

    Have fun!

    I have been doing Zumba for about 6wks now. I love it! I will tell you what my zumba instructor told me my first class, work on the footwork first then add the arms and hips. It is seriously the most fun i've had working out. I actually look forward to the days I go to class.

    I have NO, ZIP, ZILCH beat! I have a hard time remembering left from right! I'm very uncoordinated about moving my feet and arms at the same time. Haven't tried Zumba (YET) But I have been doing a group groove class...it's takes a few times to figure it out. GO and have FUN with it!!!!!!

    Zumba is a great work out and fun! I don't even realize I'm burning so many calories! Just remember "keep moving" that is what my instructor says...as long as your moving your burning calories!

    I love Zumba! My husband bought the DVD set off the infomercial for me as a late Christmas present. I am 1000% uncoordinated, but when I'm in my living room by myself in my sports bra and shorts, I feel sexy and forget the extra little rolls that I'm working off! Definitely a good workout - there are some classes in my area and I fully intend to hit one of them soon! I say you should absolutely go :laugh:
