GET READY TO ZZZZUUUMBA!

Who knew working out can be so much fun?! This is only my third week of taking Zumba classes and I'm seriously loving it! It's basically taking a group of people (mostly women), turning up some loud booty shaking music, and having the time of your life while burning massive calories! Of course you can probably do the same thing at a nightclub but then you have the occasional drunk guys who are eager to push into your personal space. If you're into guys hitting on you, I guess you can get your dancing shoes on and head out to the real clubs, but on weeknights, I say you loosen up your body a bit by taking a Zumba class! Afterall, you sort of owe it to yourself after sitting at work all day right? The adrenaline will pump lots of positive endorphins into your brain and you will find yourself feeling naturally happier. If it's your first time, you will feel a little lost at times but the whole point of Zumba is just letting go of your self-image and having a blast. I'd much rather take this class and get a good laugh out of myself than run a few miles on a boring treadmill... Zumba combines a variety of dancing styles (hip hop, salsa, flamenco, belly dancing, etc). Make sure you find an upbeat instructor with good taste in music and dancing styles. The more you go the easier it gets. You will notice a lot of movement in the hips and booty. Not only will you end up with a nice core exercise, but you will gradually become a better dancer too!
