I luv ZUMBA & FYI I am not paid to make these comments. (Although I would not say no if offered)
Zumba classes rock! You go get your sweat on for 45 minutes, do some stretches and then roll off. You feel really good, great even. The thing I am not a fan of is I started out going for free to classes at the local gym, then paying a very small fee. No big deal, but then as it got more popular the fees started to increase....Now they are over double the small dumb fee!!!!
So I cry to my love and he buys me the DVD set so I can do the hip thrusting and booty popping in my living room. With no chance of SURPRISE!!! you now pay double the amount to play along today, just pop it in and pick 1 of 8 sessions. Yes it is the same workout, some even better. But no others to compare yourself to and then after 2 month there are no new moves. It is to the point I can do the thing on mute and make up new dialog for the dancers just for giggles but now I am getting bored.
Again, I long for class, and as you know now there are voices fighting with me in my head...The one who is saying go for it wins with ease. I go, only to my dismay that they are not only double the original small fee but a smidgen more! EEEK! So after taking my coffee money for the rest of the wk out I do the class and pout all the way home. I text my sister (who agrees it is LAME) and daughter (who says everyone is doing that) and friends (who say well we won't go then either) that 2day I hang my hat to paid zumba classes.. The sadness it is causing is overwhelming. I might even need to eat fried food over this....Because you will learn I either eat or sweat out my feelings.
The fact that I used all my cash and refuse to go thru the drive thru a second time tonight sends me to the house. It causes me to bust out the not forgotten but glad to have had a break from boot camp style DVD set gotten for me previously because I cried about how I needed it.. Being there are no classes the hours I can go to the gym. Now this set really does tone you up in 90days. As a matter of fact it increased my energy in 3 days, it just hurt to move. The effects from it are wonderful. The little voices are all laughing saying you remember this, it isn't fun at all, its work! This is why we switched to ZUMBA!!!!
Then a Saint of a man shows up on my door step...He is a God sent (AKA a wonder friend of mine paid in full for delivery boy) dressed in all brown with his equally brown truck...WITH MY NEW DVD! Yes, it seems that my love has ESP and knew I needed a new sweat inducing past time because new moves and music was being handed to me in a brown bubble wrapped package just as I was about to tap out another cry cry cry I need new DVD's email to him!!!
Keep in mind, I will still do the men in my life: Betto on an every other night basis and Tony 6 out of 7 days a wk, but this little beauty is now added to the fun and games on my WII :)
Off to DANCE!! Best part, there will be no added cost any time I feel the need to do any of them!!!!
