Everyone knows that working out is good for the body but it wasn’t until I discovered Zumba that I realized how fun it could be!

To me, Zumba is a fitness revolution that’s great for any sex and age. What really blows me away about the classes is the unique fusion of Latin rhythms and easy-to-follow moves.  I also like that each class includes interval training and resistance training to both sculpt your body and burn fat.

Having struggled with my weight for many years, I recently decided that my youth and health were too important to lose. I started going to the gym regularly and tried group classes, like pilates, for the first time. Then I tried Zumba. The energetic instructor captivated me immediately. She was outgoing, motivating, and man could she dance!

The instructor dances with her back to the class and you follow her moves. It was a bit of a shock to me because I`d never experienced anything like that before. But, the steps were easy to figure out and really got my heart pumping. But even more shocking was that I had a smile on my face!  The girl, who hated any workout besides swimming, was smiling.

I was hooked.

After only 5 weeks, with Zumba and a lifestyle change, I lost 15lbs.  I’ve brought friends to and made friends at Zumba. I’ve fallen in love with Zumba and it has changed my life. I even want to get certified to teach classes!

I highly recommend Zumba to anyone who wants to enjoy getting or staying in shape.
