i had my first zumba lesson today! svenja and ellen have been a few times before (svenja's host mum took them) and they offered me to come as well this week :) the zumba lesson was held in a to a sports hall converted church. at first, i had to sign a form that it's not the zumba teacher's fault when i break my leg or something - then we paid and went into the hall. in the hall, there were about 15 women of every age class (we were the youngest, then some 20-year olds, some women in their thirties, then some 50-year olds and two like 70-year olds - hilarious!) waiting for the teacher to get up on the little stage. the teacher was a woman, about 35 years old, with a green shirt with zumba printed on it. she turned the music on (some latin zumba-dance music, whatever), and i was hopping around for an hour. i must say i admire old grannies who do sports. i had big trouble doing the right thing with my arms and legs at once, but when the elderly lady did it, it looked quite good :D it was great fun though and as i thought we had just started, we were already stretching - with music and something like a dance :D i'll go again next week.
