Zoom Zoom Zoom

Well, I finally did it. I joined a Zumba class. I have wanted to do Zumba since I first heard about it in college. At first, there wasn't a class offered at a time I could go. Then, I had the whole "get- hit-by-a-car-and-need-surgery" incident the summer before my senior year, so I pretty much laid off the working out (except walking and physical therapy) for quite a while.

Then, low and behold, we moved back here and there are few (this may be an understatement) workout classes offered here. I did try a Turbo Kick class this summer that I was just sure I'd love. It was fun but honestly, it kicked my hiney from here to Sydney. It was just too much bouncing for me I think. =) I continued looking high and low for a Zumba class. Nothing. Until... for Christmas this year I got the Zumba dvd set. I hadn't even had the chance to try it out yet when my Aunt called and said they were starting a Zumba class in Winfield!! We got signed up and last night was the first class.

Review: It wasn't 100% what I was expecting but it was fun. I've missed dancing and I felt like it was a really good workout. You can, in a way, set your own pace and define how much of a workout you get out of it. There were women of all ages, all sizes, and all levels of expertise. I think that made for a good beginner's class. It's also only one time a week and that definitely fits into my busy schedule. Also, since we're keeping it real here... I just enjoyed adding a little salsa flair to my life aaaaaaaaand shakin' my booty! =) Soooo, all in all, I give it a...
