How could I possible link a picture of Miley in one of her sweaters to Zumba? Well, the weather is getting cooler... which means Christmas is upon is... and with Christmas coming up, New Years resolutions are next. And people ALWAYS vow to work out more. Meaning there is a mob of non experienced Zumba-ers until mid Februray. Grrrr.
And now, onto Zumba Etiquette...
1. Do NOT come, with your 3 or 4 friends, and stand directly in front of someone who was there much earlier than you. It's always the same group. One of your group members actually suggested you girls move over a little but you didn't listen. You always try and find a window and you are NOT helping with that.
2. To said group member who didn't listen, when doing a move that involves us to take 8 steps forward followed by 8 steps backwards, please try and make those steps equal. If you're taking 8 small steps forward, why would you take 8 big steps backwards... putting you IN MY SPACE?!
3. If you come several minutes after the start of class (i.e. during the second or third song), please do not think it is my job to accommodate making space for you... especially when the person to the left of me is already pretty close. Your fault.
4. To said person who came late, you insisted on standing behind us, in the window. Fine. How in the world do you, in the middle of class, find yourself in the same row as me and the person that was originally to my left?! Scoot your butt back!
5. Again, to the person who was behind me who is now next to me, is it really necessary to scream and make random noises every couple of steps?! LOL, I know you're excited, and love Zumba too, but you're yelling in my ear.
6. And to those several ladies who go out of their way to emphasize every move, including the ending pose, or curl their hair/wear big hoop earrings to class... knock it off. Just because you were a dance teacher in your previous class doesn't mean you need to "stand out" in Zumba. There are a few of you, and you know who you are. I know clothes can influence your self esteem, and I want you to feel great about yourselves, but don't overdo it. It's not a good look on you.
To those ladies who know the moves, do them well but still are "normal," I thank you. You're the kind of girls I would totally see myself hanging out with outside of class. Maybe I'll say hi to you next time. I appreciate you NOT trying so hard :)
LOL! Too Funny!!!
