Anyone Zumba?

We have a new women's fitness studio in town and they offer this class, looks like fun.  Anyone know if it is really hard to pick up?  I'm not very light on my feet, lol.

It's a lot of fun and most of the women that I take it with are older (like my mom's age) and can't really dance. My instructor says that we burn around 800 calories in an hour. I used to take it 3x a week but stopped because so many people started taking the class that it was hard to move and I felt like I wasn't getting much of a workout anymore. Try it out - it's fun!!!

I LOVE zumba! By me there are a lot of  young people that do it. It is difficult at first but once you get the hang of it, it is super fun and you burn a ton of calories. You definitely leave there sweating!

I am super uncoordinated and self-conscious about it.  I thought I'd be THAT person that messed everyone else up.  Kind of like that scene in Pee Wee's big adventure where he knocks over all of those motorcycles. Yep.  That's me and the bikes would be the women in my row.   But seriously, it was very easy to keep up and I had a ton of fun.  I sweated up a storm and didn't knock anyone over, which I was pretty proud about.

It's offered at my gym. I wear my HRM and I only burn 300 calories an hour, tops. It's fun though. I don't use it as a workout, but it's something active to do on my days off

I go to zumba 2xs a week (saturdays too if I'm home) and I love it! I haven't begun to loose weight yet but I'm not gaining any either. I love how I feel when I'm done. I'm not the most coordinated person either but like a PP said most of the women are my moms age & can't dance either. Try it out, its fun!
