Zumba

I don’t know how many of you readers know that I was a folk dancer until I traded in my boots for this academic game, but the only thing that still keeps me sane is dancing. Problem is, there is only so much dancing one can do in her living room.

I’ve been taking Group Fitness classes at USF since I started there in 2003, but nothing really worked to keep weight off (and we all know that we like to snack when writing a paper or avoiding writing a paper). But this summer I have found the class of all classes: ZUMBA! It’s “a fusion of Latin and International music – dance themes creating a dynamic, exciting, effective fitness system” and I love it!!! This Fall more classes will be added to the schedule and I am so excited. Apparently it is a craze all over gyms in America, so check out Zumba.com to find a class near you. I hate to sound so giddy and commercial about it, but it’s so much fun! See for yourself!
