If you’d have told me 25 years ago that I would be going to the club at 8 PM on a Friday with my girlfriends and working out for 2 hours, I wouldn’t have believed you. And that I would have so much fun that I’d have a permagrin, be hoarse from screaming, and shaking my (oh so sore) hips several days later?

I could tell Zumba was fun just from watching the infomercials. But zumba is much better when you participate.

The zumba party? Brilliant.

I wondered about those jingly skirts the first time I saw them.

This was Latin dance, right? Not belly dancing. But, there are a few belly dancing moves, and Bollywood, and hip hop, disco, you name it, zumba had some of it. There were even a couple show tunes thrown in the mix.

And we loved every minute of it.

Ok. the commercial is over. Go back to your lives. And attend every zumba party you can!
