Zumba safe and effectively

Hydration is very important, you should drink a glass of water 15 minutes before the class. This gives your body a chance to absorb the liquid so it can be used later to cool you through sweat. Also bring a bottle of water as your body will need to be replenished during your workout. It is a good idea to take a few drinks periodically throughout your work out.

Wear comfortable clothes and tennis shoes that give you good arch support. Don't get frustrated during the class if you couldn't get all the steps. We don't do Zumba to learn how to dance and nobody is going to be judging your dancing skills. Just try to loosen up and allow yourself to have fun.

As with anything new, the first class is always the hardest. There are a lot of things that you probably are not used to, such as the way we move our hips. Just hang in there because real quick you will be movin' like you never thought you would!

Zumba is all about moving at your own pace. Everybody can Zumba. During the class we will show you how to do it low, intermediate and high impact. Because everyone is different, you must know your own limitations. As time progresses you can add intensity to your workout with out endangering your body. You may not add the arms movements and do just part of the class. There is no sense in overdoing it, you and your body will regret it later.

For safety from injuries remember to keep a good posture. But the best reason for us is to get better results especially on your abdomen.
