I was lucky last year to receive some private Zumba instructions at the BF's Aunt's house before heading to one of the first Zumba studios in Miami for a workout.
What I learned?
All my previous Jazz and Hip Hop dance training allowed me to catch on to the basic movements really quickly - however, it did not allow me to suddenly channel my inner Adriana Lima and shake my hips with a sexy Latin Flare. I got a great workout and had tons of fun, but looked as if I was cheering on High School Football for the most part.
Overall I wouldn't use it as my only form of exercise, but trying out new dance classes every once in a while is a super fun way to mix things up!! That Batuka Dance looks crazy, but hey, I could see how much fun you could have in a class like that!
Sadly, I can't find any classes listed near me yet -- but will be keeping my eyes open!
Speaking of new workouts to try... I've been dying to take a Booty Barre class, anyone taken a class? And advicve or tips??
