zumba class??

Has anyone ever taken a Zumba dance/fitness class?  I've never really heard of it but I'm thinking about going to an open class tomorrow.  I haven't broken a sweat from anything other than lugging kids around in a long while.  I think it is time!  Thanks.

I have been a few times. It's pretty fun. I hadn't danced like that since my bacholerette party:-) Not a very challenging workout though. I guess it's a good way to get back into it.....Have fun!!!

I have taken classes.  Lots of fun!  I have a friend who is a certified instructor.  She said you can burn an average of 500-700 calories in a one hour class.

My mom is an instructor for it. Its ok, I guess, not one of my favorite workouts. I think it just depends on what kind of workouts you like. I like intense cardio workouts, Zumba is more laid back and easier.

I liked it....it was easy to follow and entertaining, but I didn't sweat like I do running or kickboxing.

I guess it all depends on the instructor. I have taken kick boxing classes and Zumba and the latter kicked my butt waaay more. 

ya you're right, I just don't think dancing can be more of a workout than kickboxing our running. Like I said I guess it just depends on what kind of workouts a person prefers.
