When I got to the gym this morning and looked at the list of classes I saw that there was a spin class starting in 10 minutes. Perfect!
But then I looked a little further and saw
Zumba. If you are not familiar with Zumba, this class (as written in the class description) combines high energy motivating music with a fusion of Latin dance and unique moves to make you sweat and burn those calories away. Nice.
Okay I can do this. I have rhythm and I can dance...okay maybe only after a few drinks and that is probably still disputable.
So I enter the studio where 3 guys and 3 girls are lining up and stretching. Hmmm, am I in the right class - 3 guys in this class, really?
So have you taken this class? I asked one of the guys next to me who excitedly jumps up and down and says "noooo, but I loved the jazz class I took and I am sure this is going to be sooooo much fun, right guys!"
Right
So the spunky Latino instructor walks in and starts pumping the music, which I love of course, and she starts gyrating and swinging her hips shouting out counts and moves - here we go!
As I trip over my own feet and get dizzy trying to follow the spins, hip swinging, salsa moves, jumping and bumping I think - I should have had a few drinks before the class.
