I Zumba. This is a high energy, fast paced, dance inspired work out that is sweeping the nation. I started on a whim and have actually fallen in love this crazy and wiggly way to work out.
MCPL now offers patrons a 7-disc Zumba DVD set, Exhilarate, so you can cha-cha, samba, and merengue in the privacy of your own home. I just finished 4 weeks with Beto and his crew, so let me give you the break down on this item.
Start by watching Disc 1, the step-by-step guide. Never heard of cumbia? Neither had I. Who knew there was such a thing as Latin hip hop? The instructors are friendly and break the steps down for you.
Next either do Disc 5: Rush, a 25-minute routine, or Disc 2: Activate, a 40-minute routine.
A few months ago, I wrote a blog about Zumba. It is a Latin-based dance fitness craze that is sweeping the nation. I have been going to classes pretty much weekly for about a year now, and I wanted to check-in and update how things are going.
