Zumba.

This evening, I had my first experience with "Zumba" - a latin-dance based exercise class. There is one offered after school for employees of my school board, so I went with several collegues to try it out... and it was great! I am a big fan of salsa, merengue and bachata, and look forward to learning a few other dances (maybe I will finally conquer samba?) in a fun environment!

It is a 7 week class, and I am already thinking "oh man.. I have to miss the 6th session for the science conference I've been looking forward to for months?"! (That is how much fun I had.)

Not all Latin music is created equally (compare this classic by the Queen of Salsa with this pop-y latin beat...) but it is all danceable!
