Re: Re: what happened to aerobics classes?

I live Zumba! It is so much fun and my body can do most of the steps. What I

can't do because my feet or knees I can modify. I'm horrible at the shoulder

shimmy but it doesn't matter in Zumba. But boy can I shake my booty! There is

an instructor that is really short like I am but boy does she have curves and

she is solid. She shows me that sexy can be at any size!

I'm terrible at dancing also! I took salsa lessons for a while and i was

terrible! but i am envious of the zumba classes anyway -- they sound like so

much FUN! i love it when exercise feels like play!

Well i used to love to dance as a child. I remember around 4,5 or 6 being in a

free dance class where you did just that just moved as You felt. I was also on

gymnastics and was quite flexible until I had a coach more interested in

training athletes for like the Olympics tell me I was too fat and couldn't do

his class. But do you think my Mom would've searched for a different teacher?

No, I quit all of that stuff! And I think I've been trying to reconnect to that

little girl that loved to move but my body isn't cooperating. Very frustrating!

Zumba I can move my body how I need.to move and still keep up. The HipHop,

forget it! I have a much greater appreciation for some of.those on DWTS.

Alana I feel like a 2X4 instead of a willow stick when it comes to dancing. I

can sense the rhythm and movement in my head but my body just can't 'translate'

that into graceful actions. But if I cut free and just move - with no one there

to see me! - I can enjoy the experience of moving to music. I marvel at you

joining classes to further your enjoyment. That's not something I would at all

feel comfortable to do. Hope you had a fun time with line dancing. At least

there you don't have a partner to step on toes while learning.

my coordination. Love Zumba classes! Just not good at trying to learn

choreographed dance steps. Find myself feeling a yearning loss for youth and

missing the days of aerobics dance classes from the 80's. At least I tried it.

Wednesday I try a line dancing class. Hopefully wont feel so uncoordinated.
