To refresh your memory,
the topic I have chosen was health and fitness. I feel like a good topic to
blog about may be Zumba. Over the years I have been to numerus Zumba classes
and all have them been quite a challenge for my body. You absolutely need to be
mentally and physically prepared for this type of class. I have attended two
different Zumba studios and they both gave me two completely different outlooks
on them. If you are unfamiliar with the term Zumba, it is an aerobic fitness program with movements by
Latin American dance and performed to Latin American dance music. I feel as
though these classes are extremely inspiring and up moving for the body and
mind. In the past when I have attended Zumba classes, I think the reason I kept
going back was because of the instructor. I have been to classes where the
instructor failed to have the energy and pep. I never went back to that one place because I
felt I did not get the full effect of the studio. That studio did not catch my
interest in the slightest bit. However, I attended another class at a different
place with a different instructor and she was fantastic. The women made me want
to take part in another class, you best believe I went back there for another
session. The music was out of this world. The music was able to make my heart
beat and keep me in the rhythm to work out and burn some calories. I have never
been into that type of music but after hearing it in that atmosphere changed my
way of thinking. I feel you are so unaware of how many calories you actually
burn from this workout because of the upbeat atmosphere you are able to surround
yourself in. But in addition to the fantastic instructor the facility could
have been more up to date. The colors of the room were very dull. The color of
the room was a simple baby blue with nothing else really to look at. I expected
there to be bright colors flashing at my eyes when I walked in. For example,
like a bright red, orange or even yellow. I also expected to see posters and
signs all over the walls. If you have ever been to a gym you know they always
have the posters encouraging, you to do your best. This place did not and I was
let down. I expected the scenery to be very inspiring and motivating. This
facility defiantly lacked this in my opinion. Another thing I was disappointed
about was the amount of people that were in the class, it was a very large
class. There was a wide variety of people. There is nothing wrong with this,
the room just felt like it should have been bigger to have had so many people
in this room. I felt like I was not able to move around as much as I could in
the other facility I went to.
