Studio Z

So much fun! I had never tried Zumba before so I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect.
We tried the Zumba Lite class. Thinking that was a good place to start, right? If that’s the «lite» class, what is the advanced class like?
You most certainly will break a sweat while dancing this funky hybrid version of latin dance and… twerking? Yup, expect to do a little bit of that as well. The instructors are very energetic and welcoming. In fact, everyone we spoke with was super friendly. Towels are provided and plenty of water is available if you need it. Once you have made it through shaking your stuff there is a nice cool down stretch at the end of the class.
If you have never tried Zumba, I suggest starting with the Zumba Starts Here class which teaches the basics, breaking down moves and repeats them so when you do start to learn routines for the more advanced classes, you have a better idea of what you are doing.
The studio also offers cardio and toning classes and they just started offering hip hop classes as well. Prices are very reasonable. We went and the drop in rate was $ 5 for the one class. Plus, I got a pass to come back and get my second class for free!
Dance is suppose to help reduce stress, increase happiness and help your immune system become stronger. Just some of the great reasons to give Zumba a try!

This is my home away from home. I love the instructors, the atmosphere and the energy! I have Zumbad many places and am an instructor myself. This place is the best!

This place has changed my life! Started Zumba because I had heard it was an excellent work out but didn’t feel like a workout because it was dance! I was needing to shed a few pounds for an upcoming wedding. I was skeptical at first because I am not the workout type. Sandy and Jessica were warm and welcoming on my first day. I was a newbie and knew nothing. They made me feel comfortable and like I was part of the Z family. This was in June… Since then, I have become addicted! It’s a wonderful stress reliever and the people are what keep me going back! Oh… And it does work… The pounds drop off!

Great, friendly place to work out. The Staff is great. I like that it is affordable for any budget.

Erika’s class was amazing! Absolutely impressed with my first class. The energy and atmosphere can’t be match! I’m signing up ASAP and bringing some friends!

If you want your workout to feel like a party then this is the place for you. I’ve only been here once and it was for their «happy hour» special on Friday for only $ 4. That’s the drop in rate; there is no commitment or anything but they do make you sign a waiver. The are located in dingy and run down shopping center but once you get inside it is a very upbeat and friendly atmosphere. From the schedule on their website it looks like they offer a variety of different Zumba classes but the one I went to was mostly hip hop. They are trying to make it fun and so during the class they crank the music up really loud and there are all kinds of flashing lights like in a nightclub. This was a little too much for me and by the time I left I had a headache. I’ve taken zumba classes other places without all the hoopla and I really enjoy it. Studio Z was a good workout so I might try it again sometime. I probably would only do the monthly option if they added other cardio group fitness classes besides zumba. But if you just want a good zumba class to augment your fitness regimen, you can’t beat their prices on the drop in rates.
