Seeking Zumba class input - anyone tried it??

[SusanMac]

I'm attending a Zumba class w/a girlfriend this Wed, and am looking for some info.



* What kind of shoes should I wear? Or is this one of those no-shoes things?

* What kind of workout can I expect? I'm wondering if it's just a fun, get-moving thing, or if it will be a serious workout that will have my heart rate up the entire time? (that will determine whether or not I do an indoor bike spin session earlier in the day)


Any other tips you have would be great, too.

Thanks!

I have never heard of zumba until Saturday, I was sat my club and heard loud music comg from this room, I peeked in and thought how cool, that looks like fun and noticed on the shedule it was Zoomba. Looks to be a total cardio that will have your heart rate racing, so I thinkg the first time you should skip your bike. Everyone had shoes on.
