Taught my first Zumba class last night - last min cover for a local lady.

Went ok for the first one - only a small class so glad about that!! Forgot a few bits of routines but made it up on the spot so hopefully got away with it!

At the end the ladies said it was hard but they had never sweated as much! I think that equals success!!

Brilliant hun!! Hope the zumba went well!! Were you nervous?! I bet the atmosphere was brilliant!!X

Yea I was a bit nervous. Luckily it was just a small class so wasn't too much pressure. Feedback has all been good and lady wants me to cover another 5 of her classes in the next few weeks! At a minimum of £40/hour I'm not saying no and it is good practice for when I start my own class in May!
