What do you need for Zumba® class?

1. Comfortable shoes
• Shoes should be supportive with minimal tread on the soles. You don't need to buy new shoes for class! Lots of people wear sneakers. Tread helps with forward movement as needed with running or walking. Lateral movement (side to side) or twisting is easier in  shoes with smoother soles which helps protect your knees.  Ask me for more safety tips in class!
2. Light weight workout clothes
• Your body temperature will heat up quickly as the party gets going. Avoid clothing that hinders movement. 
3. Water bottle
• Hydration is a MUST! Start several hours before class. By the time your body lets you know that you are thirsty, you're already dehydrated. 
4. Hand towel
• You're going to SWEAT! Zumba® is a cardio-fitness dance class. This means you will be pumping up your heart rate and working hard. Yes, you will have slower songs and steps to catch your breath and cool down too.
5. Leave your stress at the door!
• Remember ~ It's time to ditch the workout and join the party! This means enjoy yourself. Work at your own fitness level. Challenge yourself overtime. If you're moving and having fun, then you'll doing the "right" steps.
