Zumba.....
Saturday, December 20, 2008
We had a large power outage, during which we rediscovered the YMCA, because we needed to shower somewhere. Funny enough, the girls reminded me how much fun we used to have at the Y, and since they have been complaining about not being in the shape they would like to be in, we all decided to go back and sign up for classes 2 or 3 times a week. It so happened, that a Zumba class is being held when we can attend, so we tried that out. What a wonderful, powerful, fun filled class that is..... latino, african, indian rhythms, salsa, samba, cha-cha, bellydancing, flamenco...... absolutely unbelievably fun and energizing. Needless to say, we are going back, we all caught the Zumba bug. I have not had fun like that in a long time. I love ballroom dancing, foxtrott being my favorite, and I enjoyed all the dance elements, and being able to put my extra little spin on the moves. What a great way to work out without feeling that you work out.
