Zumba

Wikipedia defines Zumba as: Zumba is a Latin dance -inspired fitness program created by dancer and choreographer Alberto “Beto” Perez in Colombia during the 1990s.

My daughters and friends have enjoyed Zumba, but I had to ask my daughters to stop.  I had a huge problem with the raunchy lyrics and the dance moves at times being extremely sexy.  We have never encouraged our girls to dance in public because of the sexual nature that dancing can promote among two hormonal youths.  That being said, I have felt like a ninny because I wouldn’t let my girls practice Zumba at their friends house.  As far as I know they have honored my decision.

Well, they will be very happy when they finish their schoolwork tonight.  I found a lovely Zumba website that uses Christian music and the instructor has put a bunch of videos online and the dance moves are much mellower than the moves I’ve seen on other Zumba videos!  Check out Devoted Fitness! My girls can finally Zumba and I’m comfortable that the music they are allowing into their brains won’t rot out their souls!  Now, if I can just quit tripping myself every time I “pony” maybe I might just join them!

You can check out some of their videos on their Video link.  Enjoy!
