I'm thinking about joining a Zumba class, any opinions or thoughts on if it's worth it?

    I love Zumba! It's a super fun way to get in a good hour of cardio. I usually get bored doing the elliptical or tread mill, so this is a good alternative. They have good music and fun dance moves. I go once a week, but would go more if I had transportation. I think it would be a great investment for you to go to Zumba! The hour goes by very quickly.

    Yes. It is a great workout and you are moving every part of your body! I went Saturday and had a blast. I am trying to change up my workouts and I to get tired of the ellitical machine...but it is a great workout as well.

    So I would try it

    WORTH IT! I found myself actually excited about working out, several times a week. It really depends on the instructor though...I lucked out that I have an amazing instructor that is literally minutes from my house. But I'd drive pretty far if I knew it was a good class.

    I miss zumba. The instructor left our YMCA. I wish she'd come back.

    I am Zumba obsessed and take classes numerous times a week. I would highly recommend it! It is truly the reason for my weight loss.

    Absolutely! I've been going for over a year and I just love it. The people are great, everyone has fun, you get to laugh...it's a wonderful way to get your cardio in. I go at least 3 times a week. And I'll be 62 in a month and a half and still going strong!
