Zumba!

This is one of my favorite classes to take for cardio! For anyone that does not know what Zumba is it's an aerobic type dance class to Latin music. It includes cha cha, meringue, salsa, etc along with Reaggaton and hip hop too. It is SO fun that other than all the sweat you'd never know you were burning tons of calories! According to www.sparkpeople.com 1 hr of Zumba burns almost 700 calories!! I love it!

Last night was my first time going in awhile due to boot camp but it was a blast as always and the class was packed! If you ever get a chance to try it you should go at least once! The biggest thing with Zumba is to not worry about what everyone else is doing. Don't worry about who's watching. Let all your inhibitions go and just enjoy the music. It's Latin music.. there is some booty shaking and  hip shaking and body pumps. But they are fab for the core! You will work your abs just shaking those hips!!

Here's a video of one of the dances. They are very repetitive so if you don't pick it up right away don't worry just keep moving and try again the next time it comes around.
