Go!!! I used to take every fitness class my gym offered EXCEPT zumba because I didn't think it was a real workout. Then I took a class and I was hooked. It was high intensity and it pushed me to work out hard! Sure the first few classes can be frustrating but I'd recommend going at lest 3 times before saying no thanks.…

Yay! I bet that felt awesome putting on your dress and looking at pictures! Congrats! I'm getting married next month and have been steadily losing inches. I think...I think we have the same dress even! Mine's an 8 and I'm worried it will be too big when I try it on.

I live in Alaska and can personally vouch for it's amazingness. Alaska in July is mind blowing. I live in Homer and no matter now long I've been here the mountains still take my breath away. We're getting married in July too. And my future parents in law have decided to surprise us with a mini honeymoon in Vegas. I've…

Alright ladies! So we all need motivation..... what works for you? Do you want daily check ins? Emails? Fried Requests? I don't like weigh ins. We could post NSVs, especially wedding specific ones. I'd like to see some dress pics.... we could try on our dresses (if we have them) weekly and take pictures so we can see our…

You can do it! 5 months is plenty of time if you commit to it. I'm getting married at the end of July. I started working out every morning Jan 1st. So now I'm 5 months into it. I won't say I wasted the time...but I didn't pay any attention to my diet and ended up no where near my goal. Now I'm hustling trying to get these…

Oh I am totally with you! I did great my first week. And then last week started to feel drained and like I "deserved" a drink, a treat, more food, ect. That lasted though this weekend. Today I'm back on track though. But log your calories... if at the end of the day you have some left enjoy that drink! My calories were way…

I love the fitness blender workouts too. They are on Youtube and their own website. They have lots of strength training workouts. I've been working out with the videos for almost 4 months. They're simple and easy to follow. I use 6lbs, 10lbs, 15ls (the most often) and 25lbs. It's nice to have some options but you could…

Zumba can be hard on the feet. You might want to look into getting a pair of insoles or new shoes just for zumba. Reka makes a couple of good "dance fitness" shoes or Zumba.com sells them too of course. I teach 4 days a week and my feet started to hurt awful. I kept my Reka's but bought some good insoles for them and…

Okay! You inspired me! I bought the program. I did a video this morning already so I'm going to skip the fit test and start on Day 2 tomorrow. :) Lets go! I'm excited!

You can go onto YouTube and search Zumba. There are TONS of routines on there. Even whole playlists or mix and match and make your own. I warn you...some are amazing...and some are crap. lol A couple good fun instructors are Sarah Placencia , Medora Cesarano , Sensazão Crew ...There are lots more but these ones I found…

I workout with the videos 4-5 days a week. I was curious about their program though. I need some kind of motivation! I'm 14 weeks away from my wedding.

Hi! I teach Zumba 3-4 times a week. I can't say I make much money doing it. My gym I work at pays me $14 and hour and taxes come out...ends up being closer to $10. That's on the very low end of what other instructors out there make. I also teach one night a week at a bar and the class is free for anyone and the bar owner…
