I started my Zumba fitness journey in August 2011 and became certified in March 2011. I was introduced to Zumba by a friend who wanted me to go to classes with her. I was scared I would embarrass myself by not knowing the moves. I was excited to find out that Zumba class members were accepting, the classes were fun and I had a great time! I have been unable to exercise for years due to a degenerative back condition, but Zumba got me back out there. It has lessened my back pain and made me more flexible, allowing me to prevent future pain flairs. Thanks to Zumba, I have lost 40 pounds so far! Only 10 more to my goal weight. So no matter what you are afraid of, feel free to come join me on your Zumba journey. I promise to embrace you in a fun, energetic, judgement free environment. And who knows, you just might finally reach that weight loss goal, become pain free or get back into the shape you have always wanted to be!
