MEMBER THOUGHTS
"With Zumba essentially you’re working out in a fun environment – it doesn’t even feel like you’re working out. Everyone’s open, there’s no one judgemental, you know if you miss a step nobody cares. You’re constantly burning calories so for anybody who does want to lose weight I highly recommend it."
