Hi, I have done three Zumba classes. Even in my advanced stage of life I still managed to get through them. However they are hard work, very energetic, and not for the faint hearted, or faint at heart.

I would start off gradually and do half a class and then gradually increase the time. You need good arm/leg coordination, which I do not have, and a good grasp of the beat of music. If Latin American beat is your forte and you are a gym junkie and are superfit. Go for it.

There is another dance fitness class starting out here. It is called She'bam. It is reported to be simpler than Jam or Zumba, with less steps and easier choreography. Still looks far too energetic for me. I'll let you know how my younger, more energetic friends enjoyed it after Saturday.

My daughter and daughter in law love it.
I would love to give it a try but with my knees.
I'll sit and watch them and wiggle all me wiggly
bits in time to the music.

Thought you'd like the health warning. Wonder what age group the injuries are mostly reported from.

Aunty totters away thinking about when she was young and fit.
