Dear Dad,
During your visit last week you remarked that I looked stressed so you encouraged me to laugh and dance more. You’ll be happy to know that this evening I snuck in to my first Zumba dance class. Zumba is a sampling salsa, merengue, hip-hop and belly dancing. Zumba and I looked like “White Men Can’t Jump.” While the class was doing hip-hop I was doing hop-hip. When we moved on to belly dancing, my belly did all the dancing. Despite my two left feet I had so much fun! Thank you for the encouragement. I plan to go next Monday (and will be checking my ego at the door).
Love,
Hey there! I’m Michelle; I’m an Passionate DIY’er and in constant pursuit of how to bring beauty to my house full of men (3 boys + 1 hubby). Stick around and see what I’ve got up my hard-working sleaves!
I’ve heard good things about Zumba, but I have no rhythm, so I’m not sure I’ll be making that class once I get back to the gym after having this baby.
I’m dying to do a Zumba class! I’m glad you had fun!
Good for you!!!
I admire you and wish I could join you. I’ve heard wonderful things about Zumba. Did you know Eddie Ross’s Mom does Zumba and has dropped a bunch of weight and looks amazing!!
Thanks for visiting my blog, I hope to see you often!!
Zumba On!!!!!!!!

Well it wouldn’t be fair if you could decorate and dance! Same as Nikki, heard lots about Zumba. Seen a lot of transformations too. Good luck!
They just did a Zumba spot on my morning news. It looks so fun! : )
ITS SERIOUSLY A PARTY EVERY CLASS ZUMBA ROCKS MY SOCKS AND HIPS AND EVERYTHING ELSE LOL!!!
I love zumba!
I’m pretty sure half of the Zumba class have two left feet and dance hop-hip as well. I definitely fall into that category but I still haven’t gained enough courage to step foot in there. That’s great that you went! I see the ladies (& a few men) work up a sweat in there!
Lol, its ALL about having fun 😉
have never heard of Zumba. I am going to have to check that out. It is so much fun to get your energy out by doing someting fun like that!
Mmkkkkk. You’re HOT!
I love Zumba!!!! It’s a fun and good workout — especially if you have a fun instructor!!! Good luck Michelle, I’m sure you’ll be fine! If someone like me can Zumba — anyone can!!!!
I’ve never gone to Zumba but I heard it’s so fun! I have been to a hip hop class before and boy, did I stick out! I was one of the only white girls there and I danced like it!
I love Zumba! I rotate that in with Taebo DVD’s at home. Once you get used to it, it’s alot less intimidating. When you get going with it, it can make you feel….dare I say it….SEXY!! And let’s fsce it, what woman doesn’t revel in that?
oh michelle! i love zumba! it is so much fun! it will get easier and you will get better. just keep going! pretty soon you will be shakin’ your booty with the best of ’em!
Ive done Zumba for 2years and i absolutely love it!!!! Good luck with your left two feet 😉
love, love, love zumba! I tease my husband that I’m going to get a cute exercise outfit, put on some make-up and pretend it’s a girls nite out! except I don’t really know any of the girls! 🙂
good for you!! Keep trying new things that way your life will always be an adventure. It sounds like you have a very wise Dad,Kathysue
I’ve heard it is so much fun! Good for you. I’ve got to give it a try (my body would SERIOUSLY thank me!)
Deita claims dancing is a great way to tap into and expand your feminine energy and essence. So is he right?…Keep it up…we all need the exercise…
You are so funny! My darling, adorable and beautiful neighbor is a Zumba instructor. She always incourages me to come to her class, but I just can’t check my ego at the door. I am pretty sure she would be laughing to hard to teach her class!
