Zumba scream

Went to zumba last night for the first time. It was intense: very little stop time. And it seems to involve a lot of screaming. And that's the bit I find hardest. 

I don't seem to have the ability to scream on demand - unless I'm watching Wales play rugby. But I think it could be quite freeing. Luckily the class is held in a school gym where noise bounds back at you so nobody can identify or pick out your particular scream, so nobody noticed that my screams were more like muted 'eurh's.

The exercise itself -apart from demanding you know your left from your right instantly and can tell which one the teacher is waving - was okay. And the music was fun so I'll persevere with this I think.

Unfortunately I couldn't find an authenticly me video but this is what it's supposed to look like.

I salute you! The ONLY thing about Zumba that I could do would probably be the scream. And not in a good way.

No, honestly, you could do it. It's very relaxed. Well, apart from the screaming and the speed. But you could be like me, about five steps behind everyone else.

No, really … I'd just keep on bumping into everyone! Like Line Dancing without the hat.
