  • Quote: salsa~ I can't wait to hear what you have to say about it! I wish one of the gyms around here offered classes but they don't. I think once I lose some weight I may do this. Right now I'm focusing on the C25K but once I get up to running 3 miles I might add a different type of cardio in every now and then.
    It was definitely interesting.

    On the positive side: woah hello leg muscles! It was lots of fun and is definitely something I can see myself enjoying. It's not what I would call a heavy workout (for me), but the day after some muscles were letting me know what they thought of it

    On the slightly negative side: there was a lady there who ducked behind a curtain and got changed. She emerged in a full-on outfit, white translucent material in the skirt and a kind of bra-top with swingy gold things dangling from it. The rest of us were in something a bit warmer

    Now if someone wants to come along dressed to the nines, go for it! But um, could you please wear underwear under your translucent skirt that's a little, um, more covering?

    Actually this is me being picky. The lady's attire was nothing compared to the way she periodically turned around to look at everyone else! A bit unnerving for a complete beginner (me!), but hey, my skin needs to be thickened somehow

    All in all - go for it! I figure there'll be "characters" in every class out there I've signed up for a course of ten lessons and am looking forward to learning
