Zumba is a latin cardio dance class offered at several gyms in my area. It's all the rage among the soccer moms, and my new non-working friends, Tamara and Lindsay that I met at the gym on Thursday, at Zumba class.
Well basically this crazy hyper lady gets you to dance/sing/yell around like a belly dancer/freak for an hour. You do the craziest dance moves and you feel like an idiot but they always say "what happens at Zumba stays at Zumba." There are pelvic thrusts and shimmies and the participants range from 12-80 years old. It's hilarious. It's always fun and my heartbeat goes crazy so I know its burning fat.
It's good that I've found my "wedding dress" and "bikini" motivation because it would be seriously sad if I had to sit down or leave and the 80 year old Asian lady in front of me was still kicking it.
Here's a recent story about Zumba from CNN.
Check out this video from the Today Show last year:
