Vamos a bailar! Its obvious I’m no valley girl, but for this amazing dance class/exercise class with instructor Jose M. I do make the exception. My girlfriend invited me to a class a few weeks ago and now I’m a regular. We drive way out to San Fernando from Hollywood to attend the most amazing group exercise class I’ve ever been to since Slimmons!(see my review for Slimmons) Its a like a Zumba class and a dance class on steroids. This awesome fusion workout is the brain child of the energetic fire ball instructor Jose– who’s a total rock star. He’s actually an amazing dancer and certified fitness instructor with a huge following of shimming, gyrating, ass shaking devotees– me being one of them. Royal Academy of Arts is a beautiful dance studio on the 8th floor of a new upscale industrial office building on Van Nuys Blvd. The studio is a huge, mirrored space and its packed with majority of ladies who signed up to sweat! The music is so awesome! Even if you don’t like to dance these beats will get you moving. He plays a huge selection of super hot salsa, merengue, reggaeton, and international stuff too. He teaches these fast sexy routines and basically you’re dancing your ass off– literally.
People drive from all over to come to this class. Last week there was a gal there from Orange County! Jose is totally gonna be the next Billy Blanks! I better brush up on my moves if I’m gonna be in his infomercial! But for now, before he is world famous, he’s my personal dance guru– I adore him. It doesn’t really feel like exercise because its so much fun. Oh, but don’t get it twisted– it is! Its $ 5 per class and there is no membership or sign up required. Looking for a fun new exercise class? You found it! Muevelo Muevelo!
