The Adventure Guys tried a new adventure recently - Zumba. Ok, tried is way too strong. I took one look at the Zumba class and decided my hips don't move that way. And even if I had moves like that I'm not even sure I could even bring myself to move that way in private.
But it was clear those who can move their hips that way - and even some who can't - don't just like Zumba. They love it. Zumba has reached full-fledged workout craze status in the South Sound area with classes at 48 local gyms.
It clearly works. I met a guy from Puyallup, Todd Hayden, who lost 100 pounds with a workout centered around Zumba.
Interested? Here's what to do:
1. Check out the story I wrote for tomorrow's paper.
2. Click here to watch video of a local Zumba class.
3. If you you like shaking what your momma gave you check out a Zumba class at one of these gyms.
