Zumba anyone?

So...here's a video of me teaching a Zumba class. Usually this particular class is very full...I'm not sure where everyone was tonight since I only had 5 people. Also, most of those people are hiding on the other side of the room because they didn't want to be video'd! This particular song is in a style called Cumbia. Cumbia is a dance from Columbia, particularly of the slaves working the sugar cane fields (which are now probably cocaine fields). Anyway, they had their legs either shackled together or had a ball and chain so they, in general, could only dance with one leg at a time. It's one of my favorite styles of Latin dance. This particular song is low intensity (in case you want to exercise with me at home). wink, wink
