Zumba

So I just found out about this work out and it looks like a lot of fun. Does anyone Zumba? Where? How much per class?

Re: Zumba

  • I haven't done it before, but back when I used to post on H&F more, there were several girls who were into it, including one who was an instructor, I think. I think the classes are just at a regular gym, but there's also a video you can do at home. (I'm all about working out in my living room. LOL)

    HTH! If you go, tell us how you like it. :-)

  • The YMCA Blanchard has classes like 3 times a week. I have a Family Membership - $95.00 a month. Ouch.
  • Alot of gyms offer the classes..and there is a instructor that does them all around town for $5per person a class.

    Ooh I would love that information.Big Smile

  • I have done zumba since 2007.  If you love to move to music, especially latin rhythms, this workout will be so fun for you.  Just dont go in there thinking you have to be a dancer to do it.  Just move at your own pace, and dont get frustrated if a move is too quick at first.

    I dont think the zumba dvds offer the same experience as a zumba class, but the dvds can still offer you a good workout, of course.  They are just sorta outdated.

    Zumba is a fantastic cardio workout, and depending on who is teaching your class, you can burn upto 700 calories in one hour doing this workout.  I have seen women shed so many pounds doing this 3x a week, and incorporating weight training and good diet into their routines.   

    I HIGHLY recommend this instructor, Gisselle.  She now teaches at 24 hour fitness on Crystal Lake Street in Orlando.  She is instructor I started with, and she is amazing.  So if you are into getting a gym membership there, you can look into her.  She was the most motivating instructor I have had in a gym class setting, and sweet as can be.  I have been to some zumba classes with instructors just going through the motions, and totally different experience.  Hopefully, if you try it, you will get an energetic person that loves doing what they do, which reflects onto their students.

     

     

       

     

     

  • My local gym offers the class. It is so much fun!!! I don't go too often since I dont do well with schedules...lol. But it is very fun and a great cardio workout.
  • I love it! I have been doing Zumba for almost 2 years at the YMCA in Tavares. It is so much fun!! If you go to www.zumba.com, you can locate an instructor near you. I know the Gold's Gym in Mt. Dora does it as well. The songs are so catchy and I find myself during the day humming them while I walk around. You Tube has alot of Zumba videos if you want to get an idea of the moves. Once you go you will be hooked!
