Mapping out my free Zumba

I love to dance. I don't care if all my jiggly bits are hanging out. I love dancing. Maybe it be hip-hop, ballroom, jazz, contemporary etc etc. My TV screen has shown its fair share of shows like Dancing with the stars, So you think you can dance and America's next dance crew.

So imagine how excited I was when I heard about this dance aerobic called Zumba in 2008 or was it 2009? I have been to two different classes so far this year, within the last 2 months :D. The ones that I've been to incorporates African dance, Latin Ballroom, Hip hop and Bollywood into the routine. Altogether I think I've been to 6.

As I mentioned previously, I go to the one on Travis AFB but I also go to one in Vacaville. There is either a drop in fee or a punch card fee. So far, the best deal is in TAFB - 16 classes for $50 or $4/ drop in. The rest that I have seen are $50 for 10 or $7/ drop in. There is one in Vallejo that is $60 for $10 - a little steep there, or $10/ drop in.

I went to a free one tonight :) at Vacaville Gold's Gym. Every class is similar in terms of having wonderful Zumba instructors. I enjoy all of them. It's hard to pick which one I like because I like all of them.

I found another free one in Vacaville. Once I've used them all up, I will sign up for a punch card. I just can't do it at the moment because I'm trying to save money for my upcoming trip to NY in three weeks. I will be doing alot of sight seeing and walking. Another motivating factor is they took my blood pressure today at work and it is 181/21. I did not know what I means so I looked it up - basically I'm in the normal range - normal/very good range woohoo! :) I thought the numbers looked lower. And funny, I've only lost two pounds - that's just water weight for sure.

I plan to keep it that way because early this year my doctor prescribed a bp medicine. I stopped taking it in July. I know some might see that as irresponsible but I don't want to live with the side effects of the bp medication - especially that I can't be out in the sun - I love my walks. So three months of not taking it and now this "normal " reading. I have to keep this up. I can feel that my body likes it too. It feels good to sweat and feel that heart beating happily :D and I just love to dance to the Zumba.
