Nicole is a zumba instructor who teaches zumba at Dance With Purpose Studios in Redlands. They do not offer a free first class but when I contacted her she was super friendly and told me about a glow party they were having that night. I'm always up for something new so I grabbed my sister, Heather and her friend and we got our "party" workout on!
When we got to the studio it was packed - we met the instructor/owner Nicole and she was really nice. She painted us with glow paint and a lot of the girls were wearing glow sticks too :) The studio was dark w/ black lights and everyone was supposed to wear white or brite colors.
The workout: 1hr 15min of zumba - fitness dancing.
It was actually really fun but super crowded... like the girl next to me whacked me with her arm twice and it was really hard to see the instructor. This type of zumba is not for wimps! It is high energy and fast paced with loud music! The instructor is great because all the moves are high impact and she has enough energy for 10 people so it's super motivating.
We were definitely dripping sweat...
I honestly couldn't tell much about the actual studio because it was dark :) Oh and they had live bongo - I think that's what they are called - drummers in the far corner but the music was so loud, by me at least, that I couldn't hear them.
So the nitty gritty:
The instructor was friendly and in shape
I think she needs a bigger place - I'll try a regular class and see how crowded it is
Fees are pretty reasonable
Burn a LOT of calories while you have fun
Would I recommend this gym (workout)? Yes... I thought it was a lot of fun and you can get a great cardio/core workout.
** If I try another regular class I'll write a update
