Zumba

Oh My Goodnesssssss! Today, I tried a Zumba class for the first time EVER. I was a actually nervous before I got there...nervous that I'd not know what to do and that I'd look dumb. When the class got started, I had a little trouble keeping up but it was FUN and I was getting the hang of it. I even understood why they wore those pants with the tassels on them, b/c you shake that tooshy and move those hips like no other! I was actually smiling and laughing at myself b/c sometimes I could do it and sometimes I definitely could NOT. I was thinking "wow! I love Zumba. I'm going to come every week!"...UNTIL:

The music stopped and the instructor said; "Okay that was the warm up. I'm sure you're all warmed up now. Now it's going to get fast." I was like, SAY WHAT!? Then it was like chipmunk speed. What the heck. I felt like such a dummy. I saw myself in the mirror and I LOOKED like a dummy. I honestly looked like a woman in her mid 50s trying to dance. Yikes! I was sitting there wondering what happened to all those days of Jazz classes and those 2 years of cheer leading? I don't have it AT ALL anymore.

It was fun and super confusing. But let's just say that they weren't coming up for my autograph after class. Maybe I'll give it another try someday...
