Re: Zumba?!
Here's my take on Zumba:
1) It takes 3 sessions with the same instructor to really feel like you're figuring out some of the dances. As a result, the first 1 makes you feel lost, and the second one, you're looking for more progress and getting frustrated, and, most importantly, not feeling like you're getting a work out. By visit 3, it's more familiar, you can anticipate where you're going, and you start to work harder. And SWEATING.
2) everyone who started a zumba at some point had the same exact experience.
3) I focused on looking at the instructor, not looking at myself in the mirror. When I looked in the mirror, I was scared and sad at my own reflection. But then, after a few months of the diet and exercise I was doing, the lady in the mirror wasn't so scary anymore.
Try it, but commit to trying it a couple of times before really deciding whether it's for you or not.
I loved it. I was taking a "Zumba Mix", which is part latin, part hip hop. Then they changed the time to a time I couldn't make after work, and it makes me sad.
