I teach pilates but sometime take part of the zumba class before my class. I think you will really like it. I'm not big on latin music, but if I was I would go to the class all the time. The nice thing about zumba is you can make it your own, whether you are a horrible dancer or fantastic, it doesn't matter. You can also make it as intense as you want. It always surprises me how some women walk out of there totally dry, like nothing happened and some are just covered in sweat. In fact, I hate using the mic after she teaches because it is always soaking wet.
