Now that summer (aka bikini season) is almost here, we all are rushing to get in shape! I cannot seem to motivate myself to go outside and run so I take
ZUMBA! For those of you who don't know what Zumba is, it is a high-energy
Latin dancing class. There are tons of DVDs out there with this workout-routine as well as local gyms that have instructors. I don't have a DVD of it, but I go to World Gym for the classes classes.
I've taken this once before while I was visiting family in
Utah, and I loved it. The steps were so easy and fun to do, so I though that would be how it was this time around. Boy was I
wrong! This lady can move her booty! It was crazy the intricate things she would do, but the bad thing was it left us in the class behind! I wish there was another class for beginners, but unfortunately there isn't and there is only one teacher. It was SO crazy and I felt like a
baby giraffe just learning to walk, but surprisingly I had tons of fun! Although I probably looked funny to other people, I was having the time of my life! Now I know a lot of people who say working out is fun, and they go to the gym and lift weights, run and work on the machines but that is not me. Those of you like me who can't have fun running, biking or doing other machines this is it! This workout will really tone you all over if you keep to it. If you want to try it out, you could probably get it at your local library. I totally recommend it, and I'm definitely going again tonight :)
Clothing wise, you can just wear any type of workout/lounge clothing and tennis shoes. Whatever you wear should let you move freely. I wear my favorite Aerie yoga pants and a workout tank like these... (Pictures taken from www.ae.com).

Good luck searching for your summer body! I hope I find mine by
next month... EEK!! :)
