Zumba Zumba!

I sometimes go to Zumba with my friend on Saturday morning.

My daughter and my friend's daughter both go to Saturday Japanese school in the morning. Their class is only for 3 hours and there's happened to be right near by this Zumba studio so we decided to try. My friend goes fitness club and does zumba every now and then and she told me how cool Zumba is. I wouldn't go by myself if anybody asked me, but I gave it a try.

I used to do some Jazz dance when I was young but recently I haven't done any dancing or workout for a while. I prefer Yoga (slow and relaxing you know)

There are all kind of generation in the class, from early 20s to early 70sh.. Some people have weights on their hands.

As we paid entrance fee, I asked "Who's the teacher?" and the late 40's looking woman said "Me."

My friend and I looked at each other because she didn't look like she can dance, but she can! She moved tirelessly, the whole an hour without stopping.

The music was so loud and the first try was very hard for me.. After a few songs / dancing, I was ready to lay down, but it's more than half way to go!

Finally after little over an hour, slower music is played and that's the cool down / stretching move.

I was exhausted but sure was fun and refreshing. I wish they offer Yoga too. (their price is very good)

They wear Zumba wear. I guess it's very popular in Zumba world.
