I figured I'd get this one out of the way, it seemed harmless enough. I had no idea.
For those who are unfamiliar with Zumba, as I was mere hours ago, it is an attempt to disguise an aerobics class as a latin dance party. There are lessons to be learned in Zumba class:
1. Do not eat a huge bowl of pasta, with extra spicy sauce, before going to class. Instead, drink several cups of espresso, or tequila. I recommend vast quantities of both.
2. If you get lost, just wiggle everything you have, and eventually you will get back on track. I suspect this lesson applies to many areas of life.
3. Be prepared to look like a complete fool, collide with your neighbours, and head in the exact opposite direction of the rest of the group. If this happens, simply remember lesson 2. Don't they say it's the people that go against the grain that make the changes in the world?
I am grateful to my classmates for their tolerence. I am grateful for my sense of humour. I will not be winning Zumba scholarships any time soon, but I might go back for more. If they let me back in the building...
